Pet Parents

I love my dog,but never considered him a child. If you own one I will ask one favor. Feed them only dog food. There
are things we can eat like onions, avacados,and chesses that we tolerate easily, but can be deadly to a dog.

When my oldest was diagnosed with kidney failure (had to put her down this past February), I started making dog food (with my vet's recommendation) and continue to do it with my remaining dog. Partly because she was ALWAYS picky and would take forever to eat due to it (she loves the food I make tho), but also that there is nothing that will convince me that it isn't healthier with everything we are learning about overly processed foods and their effect on the body

I boil about 5+ pounds of chicken breasts and use a blender to chop it fine. Add butternut squash, broccoli stems, carrots, low sodium chicken broth, and blueberries.....she absolutely goes nuts for it. I do also have some vitamin supplement treats for her as well. Each time it makes about 3 weeks worth of food and it's cheaper than buying canned food overall
