Home made dog food


Got manic yesterday and decided to start making Auzzie's food (2.5 year old Boston Terrier).

1/2 C green beans
1/2 C squash
1 C fresh spinach
1/2 C fresh carrots
1/2 C canned mixed beans
1/4 C blueberries
500 g (about 1 package) lean ground beef (can alternate chicken, lamb etc)
1 C brown rice
2 C water
1 egg
2 tbsp canned salmon
2 tbsp plain yogurt (or cottage cheese)

Cook all of the veggies, except for the spinach and blueberries, at 350 for 25-30 mins and then puree everything including the spinach and blueberries.

Cook the beef at med/high on the stove, until brown.

Bring the rice and water to a boil, simmer for 40 minutes, allow to cool.

Combine 1/3 veggie mix, 1/3 rice, 1/3 meat. Add salmon, yogurt, and egg to the food on a daily basis when you feed your dog. Store separately, either in the fridge or freezer. You may have to supplement with brewer's yeast if it is always frozen.
