Home Made Food For Dogs
by James ryan

Home made diets can be an important part of dog feeding. Many times,

commercial diets consist of food items that have artificial colouring

agents and flavouring agents that are harmful to the dog's body. Home made

food items have the guarantee of freshness in the preparation unlike

ready-made commercial items.

The preservatives added into commercial food items may not be the suitable

for dogs from a health point of view. Even in case of renal diseases in

dogs, the home made diets may be made with ground beef, slices of bread,

calcium carbonate, boiled eggs etc.

The purpose is to have a restricted protein supply in the feed items that

are prepared. This should be carried out with home made diets prepared

exclusively for dogs suffering from renal diseases. Water is added in

sufficient quantities to help the proper metabolism in digestion -

imperitive for impaired renal cases.

The dog may have allergic symptoms like severe itching, which may not get

corrected by different kinds of medications employed over a period of

time. Such cases may get easily treated once the dog food is changed from

the commercial type of food to the home made food items.

Often, home made food items are prepared using freezing procedures to kill

any germs or by adding grape seed extracts to provide sufficient

antioxidants to the home made food items. Food grade vinegar is also added

in many cases to the meat pieces prepared in a fresh manner. All these can

be enriched with vitamin supplements that are available in fruit essences,

fish oil etc.

Cranberry juice, bananas, fish and meat are prepared in a quality manner

and no preservatives are added during the preparation of these kinds of

food items and the dog becomes more active after the consumption of such

food items.
