Recipes for Home Made Dog Food

By Victor Lorentzo

Since you are looking for home made dog food recipes you probably already know the health risk included in serving your dog commercial dog food. I am not saying that all commercial dog food is bad but you have no control over what you are feeding your dog.

When you use tested recipes for home made dog food you have much more control over the ingredients included in your dogs’ diet. Just like humans a dog needs a menu with variations and when using home made dog food recipes you are in control of your dogs eating habits.

Before you start making your own dog food for your beloved dog it is important that you discuss it with your vet. Dogs do need several different nutrients to become healthy. Discussing your dogs’ new diet and your plans on what you will feed him will ensure you that your dog gets the proper food.

A dog meal should consist of a combination of meat, vegetables and carbohydrates like rice, potatoes or beans. In this article I will first give you a recipe for a home made dog meal and then a recipe for a home made dog treat. Your dog will probably be a little sceptical in the beginning, but when he got the taste for it he will be happier and healthier than ever.

Salmon Dinner

1 can of salmon without bones

1 egg beaten

3 tablespoons of cornmeal

1 potato

1 carrot

1 stick celery

Mix the salmon, cornmeal and eggs well and form them into patties. You then coat with some extra cornmeal. Then fry the patties in some canola oil until they are brown on both sides. Chop the patties into smaller pieces and stir them together with chopped and boiled vegetables.

Following this steps and you will have a simple yet healthy nutritious dinner for your dog. Remember to let the food cool a little before you give it to your dog. The next recipe is a dog treat that my dog loves more than anything. I can’t blame him. It contains bacon. The treat can be made while you are making your own bacon for yourself.

1 1/2 C. Rye Flour

2 Tbls. Wheat Germ

2 Tsp. Baking Soda

1 1/2 Tbls. Vegetable Oil

Preheat the oven up to 375 degrees. Put all the dry ingredients in a bowl and use a different bowl for all the wet ingredients and mix them together separately in each bowl. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ones. Knead into dough. Roll the dough out on a floured surface. Cut into shapes. Bake 20 minutes on greased cookie sheets. Let harden in oven overnight.

Still remember that treats are treats. You do not want to spoil your dog with treats.
