Balanced Homeme Dog Food
Ingredients
7 lbs 90% lean ground beef or lean ground turkey or chicken
1.5 cup hemp seeds or 1/3 cup hempseed oil
16 oz canned sardines in water or 4 tsp cod liver oil
4 tsp ground ginger
4 tsp kelp powder
8 eggs pasture-raised
4 egg shells
15 oz pumpkin puree NOT pumpkin pie mix!
8 oz beef liver 12 oz if using ground turkey or chicken inste of ground beef
8 oz broccoli
8 oz spinach omit if your dog has kidney issues
8 oz red bell pepper
Instructions
Step 1: Begin by mixing ground beef, eggs, kelp powder, ground ginger, hempseed, (or hempseed oil), sardines, and pumpkin puree (if using). Drain water from sardines before you d m in. Save half (4) of eggshells and set m aside.
Step 2: Break up sardines as much as you can so that it is evenly distributed when mixed. Next, process veggies, eggshells, and beef liver. You may need to do this separately if your food processor can't fit everything. I process everything separately, except for bell pepper and eggshells- I process those toger.
Step 3: Portion out food according to your dog's daily food intake requirements. dog food will be good in freezer for weeks, but only for a few days in fridge. Portion accordingly. I do not like to keep cooked dog food in fridge for more than 4 days.
Step 4: food is rey to serve raw, or you can gently cook it. Cook without any oil on a nonstick pan on low heat. Do not try to sear meat over high heat- you want to gently cook it until it is just done.
Step 5: Drain fat and let it cool completely before storing it in fridge, for up to 4 days.
