CAN SOMEONE TELL ME IF THIS DOG FOOD RECIPE IS HEALTHY AND BALANCED?

I’ve researched everywhere on-line which I can consider of as well as have avoided dishes which have been heavily disputed. Here goes:
1lb. belligerent sirloin, 90% lean;
4 eggs scrambled with the sirloin;
1 crater baked brownish-red rice;
1 crater solid fat-free yogurt;
1 crater fat-free lodge cheese;
1 can unsalted immature beans, smashed;
2 carrots, grated;
1/2 crater additional virgin, initial press olive oil.
This lasts 6 days for my 8-10 bruise yorkie/poodle mix, during the single to the single as well as the half cups the day. I additionally give him the single holistic dog biscuit the day privately written to purify his teeth as well as gums. Thanks for the input, I wish to be certain I’m stuff oneself him full of health as well as there is only so most paradoxical advice.
I’ve been scheming this, ONCE A WEEK, given the food recall. It’s not hard, or expensive, as well as takes may be twenty-five minutes.
Yes Deb I do prepare the meat. I know the lot of people suggest opposite it though only as most people contend which we should, as well as I be concerned about the parasites in tender meat.

No. Stick with a high quality kibble. Dogs don’t need wet food.

Canidae, Wellness, Innova or Artemis make human grade dog kibble.

Are you really planning on preparing this concoction for your pet everyday for the rest of it’s life? Come on now.. be realistic.

I don’t know how healthy it is, but I’ll bet your dog loves it! The recipe I have calls for 2/3 protein, 1/3 veggies, mineral supplements, and brown rice, beans, or more veggies for carbs. I’ve never heard of putting in cottage cheese or yogurt, but seems like that might take the place of the minerals (calcium). The oil is good, since it’s the kind that is heart healthy but even better is the Omega oil in fish like salmon. You can get that oil in gel capsules but it is really fishy smelling. I don’t know if every dog likes that taste.

Good going. YOur dog is really lucky! I hope you can keep it up. I got tired of cooking it.

You might also do some research on the BARF diet. Stands for “Bones and Raw Food”. This is a radical approach of feeding dogs the way their ancestors ate. You can read all about it on the internet.

If you are going to spend the money to feed a homemade meal, Do some research into raw feeding and go raw. Your diet is lacking in several nutrients because A. It is cooked. B. It has no bone +no calcium, manganese and other nutrients.

Balance… It’s just a word used by dog food companies to make people think they are to stupid to feed a dog on their own. Who eats a balanced diet at every meal? What species eats a balanced meal at every meal? Nature never intended every meal to be ‘balanced’ and WHO truly knows what a balanced meal is?
Balance happens over time. You don’t sit at the table and calculate nutrients for your kids and shop accordingly, You go to the store and buy several meals to eat and balance happens over time. Surely it can not be more difficult then that to feed our MUCH more adaptable dogs!
It’s an out right insult that these dog food companies make people think hey re incapable of feeding a dog.
Search out RAW feeding and consider it. It’s cheaper, it’s easier and you won’t have to worry about balance if you feed a variety of raw meaty bones and organs from different animals. Add in an egg a week and some red fish and you got it right! Feeding a dog is EASY. Not a science.

This looks really good, do you cook the meat? That’s the only thing I would question. I don’t feed raw meat, there are just too many possible problems if the meat isn’t cooked. I may have to try this recipe but I would mix some hard dog food with it so they have something for their teeth. I have 2 on special diets, 1 for joint problems & 1 for diabetes, so they need that diet as well. And regardless of what some people think, some dogs do need wet food to maintain their weight & coat or it wouldn’t be made & sold.
