Artimus has some dental issues, so I make him food instead of buying the canned variety. I don't know if I'm doing this because it's cheaper or that I don't want to carry a bunch of cans up to the apartment and find a place to store them. Of course, it's probably because Artimus and Gollum wrote me several good recipe reviews and decided it was their favorite meal.
eggs
oatmeal or brown rice
chicken, tuna, and/or salmon
ground flaxseed
Fillers:
corn, carrots, peas
white rice or pasta
(I occasionally include a doggie multivitamin that I've softened up with water overnight.)
The quantities or amounts really don't matter all that much; I just throw it all together, and my dogs seems healthy and can't get enough of it. I've discovered I have to give them more in comparison to when I was using dry dog food. It must not have as many calories as store-bought food. I have to make it every other day to keep it fresh. I haven't tried to freeze it yet, but I'm sure that would work.
All I can say is, - - - - - SPOILED!
ReplyDeleteYou are really some Mommy!
Love you all, MomGrandma
Definitely spoiled! :)
ReplyDeleteDo you mix the egg in or do you cook it first and then toss it together? Just wondering.
I fry the eggs first; or very frequently, I will hard boil a dozen at a time; somehow that seems easier, then I save a couple for myself and Tom for breakfast, and the rest goes to the dogs. Now that we have Mallory, I have no idea what I'm gonna do; I think I'm just going to soften up some regular hard dog food with water overnight. Feeding them separately seems like a hassle. Congratulations on your one and only puppy. Snowball must be a proud mom; what is its name? I'm sleep deprived; i'm not even going to edit this comment!!
