It’s important to note that while homemade dog food can be a healthy alternative to store-bought food, it’s essential to ensure your dog is receiving all the necessary nutrients. Consult with your veterinarian before making any changes to your dog’s diet.
Here are a few homemade dog food recipes:
Chicken and Rice
- 2 lbs boneless chicken breast
- 2 cups brown rice
- 1 cup peas
- 1/2 cup carrots
- 1/2 cup green beans
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Directions: Cook chicken and rice separately according to package directions. Mix cooked chicken, rice, peas, carrots, and green beans together. Drizzle with olive oil.
Beef and Sweet Potato
- 2 lbs ground beef
- 1 large sweet potato
- 1/2 cup chopped spinach
- 1/4 cup chopped parsley
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
Directions: Peel and chop the sweet potato into small pieces. Brown the ground beef in a pan. Add the sweet potato and spinach to the pan and continue cooking for 5-7 minutes until the sweet potato is soft. Mix in the parsley and coconut oil.
Turkey and Vegetable
- 2 lbs ground turkey
- 1 cup cooked quinoa
- 1/2 cup chopped broccoli
- 1/2 cup chopped zucchini
- 1/2 cup chopped carrots

Remember to portion sizes correctly for your dog’s size and activity level, and to introduce new foods gradually to avoid digestive issues.
