I wonder how much these ingredients will cost with todays inflation ?

@@heidiwood4101 I was wondering the same thing 😂 but I'm still going to try the recipe, it looks good :)

How much foor 3 dos? Anyone Thanks

@@maubeck4409 I used roughly the same recipe shown in the video and it makes about 24 cups of food. The only difference is I used 10 eggs including egg shells and added 3 sweet potatoes and half a beef liver. I didn't use oatmeal or chicken broth but instead threw 2-3 chicken breasts in the pot for flavor and 3 cups brown rice instead of oatmeal.

@@SY_88 Thanks, how many dogs youhave? I'll use sweet potatoes. Have a good day.

This has been very hard for me. Do you know of a brand without onion and garlic?

Thanks about onions

Liam Underwood , also no garlic or celery!

And garlic

@@nadurkee46 why??

Glad to hear you were able to get her health back! Good owner for sure!

Bless all the people cooking for their dogs ❤

When you mean prepared do you mean Dry dog food and canned food?

iris emery both

Yeah commercial dog food especially dog treats have killed many dogs and I believe are equivalent to giving your child McDonalds every day. I give my dog raw food which many people disagree but I give my dog raw and he is thriving. My beloved pet companion of 21 years never ate anything other than human-grade food and she lived a very long 21 years. Back 20 years ago everyone preached that "dogs must eat dog food" now it is widely known that wholesome human grade food is the best for our four-legged companions

Yes same 😂 I mean hey.. they would still eat it and not complain about it! My dog, his a Rottweiler loves the food I make for him! It’s an awesome feeling making food for another animal or human being!

Spot on 🙏

Exactly, it feels so good to feed another being!

Could not have said that better, spot on!

Daving some like,giving birth,give some one a body part that they need is more loving

😂

😂 I've made something similar for my cats during COVID but with brown rice instead of oatmeal, no salt added canned chicken instead of hearts and gizzards, sweet potatoes and carrots instead of carrots and peas, no tuna and couple spoons of milk and totally came across a friend of mine munching on it in out the Tupperware in the fridge. He just looked at me over the fridge door and was like "It could use some salt." 😅

@@anjisocks😂😂😂

I forgot about unsweetened apple sauce

thanks

Awesome! I have many more dog food and treat videos to check out!

ITS God honey. He told you . PRAISE THE LORD!

What's the toxin ..tyia

Give Glory to God, not creation. Turn to Jesus Christ, the one who made the universe.

@@morpro4u id like to know too

He may be a little overweight I’d reduce the amount of beans

Why the kidney beans? Any reason?

@@martinaserna because he looks like a giant bean

This recipe is very high in fat. They should give him only 1/4 c but not a bad recipe in general

Prince is my wife's dog. He has only been on homemade and raw foods since about a year ago. He has been slowly losing weight in a healthy manner since starting. You can see my dog in my other dog food videos.

Dried egg shells 🤔 interesting

@@recolerichiethedj the egg shells contain calcium

I discovered from a cookbook if you cook bones long enough they soften enough that you can turn them into a paste or mush to add to dog food. My dogs love it. Your idea about egg shells reminded me of this.

@@MarySmith-ry9cu thats amazing to save waste im so glad u commented that im gonna look into it for sure. id love 2 use every part of the animal i possibly can.

@@MarySmith-ry9cu How do you cook them?

Yup. I make the food different every time (check my other dog food videos). I also feed raw meat and bones, fresh caught local fish, homemade jerky, and more.

@Sobe It Yes, they can. Now, white rice is digested slightly more easily. But, brown rice is also more nutritious. So, it is a trade off. Either way, I only add rice to thicken the mixture. He gets all the nutrients he needs from the other items in this meal (and the other foods I feed).

You shouldnt give your dogs rice and you should count weight of meat, bone, organs and veggies and also SUPLEMENTS

@@haniawilkowska6263 I don't weigh my food. I also don't weight my dogs food items. It doesn't have to be some exact percentages. What is important is to feed about proper amounts, and, to feed a great variety. Supplements are not needed. I don't take supplements. Wild animals don't take supplements. A proper diet is all that is needed.

@@earthling1984 What kinds of bones? I have a pup that loves to chew on a piece of antler - I'm sure he's adore a real bone!

Glad to hear! Sounds like your pup is really enjoying the healthier food!

Prince is my wife's dog. He has only been on homemade and raw foods since about a year ago. He has been slowly losing weight in a healthy manner since starting. You can see my dog in my other dog food videos.

Earthling1984 Prince is adorable!!

@@earthling1984 Hey thank you very much for your video. I have a 2 year old Shih Tzu. He was on soft food but I switch him to hard food because I heard it's better for his teeth. My dog wont eat his food though. Will switching him to natural food like this have a negative impact on the dogs teeth? Thank you for your response

You look like you’d be good to eat @niaMuhammad

this might sound dumb but do you warm it up when feeding them or should i serve cold or at room temp?

@@diahannawindom3888 i serve raw food cold :) but you can leave it out for a bit before serving it

How do you determine how much to feed to maintain their weight? Do you count calories?

If I want to do a 50/50 split of my dogs food and this recipe - how much should I use? My dog is an active 85 pound dog

My dog wont eat his veggies unless chopped small cooked tell soft and mixed with the rest of the food

You only feed your dog once a week 🥺doggy is probably starving

@@jackt9857 you know damn well that’s not what I said. Just like people meal prep for themselves once a week, that’s what I do for my dog. She gets 2 meals a day plus treats.

@@bribnkr13 May I ask you what your average cost is per week/month? Thinking of starting this for my crazy Cattle dog lol. 🐾 🐾

@@MaryHartmanMaryHartman I’m honestly not sure, it varies week to week depending on where I shop from or what meat I buy. Probably around $30 to $40 but not all of the things I buy for her prepping is used in the week so it can be cheaper the next week or 2.

@@bribnkr13 Okay. Thanks for your reply! 😊

Lol seriously! I started my dogs on homemade food and I’m always worried I’m not feeding them enough because they eat all of the food so quickly 😂

@@alexandracoleman4151 a little goes long way

@@alexandracoleman4151 hace you tried a slower feeder bowl?

Slow bowl

Glad to hear!

I have many dog food videos, check them out! In most my recipes I do add eggs & shells.

Shells dont really have much phosphorous! They have too much calcium

Hania Wilkowska if you aren’t feeding any raw bones, the dog needs calcium from something, so eggshells are a good idea. Even just 1/4 of an eggshell is a good idea.

Plz don’t add crushed egg shells to your dogs meal they tend to contain bleach on them that’s toxic for your dogs and not healthy at all

Eggshell membrane is primarily composed of fibrous proteins such as collagen type I. 15 However, eggshell membranes have also been shown to contain glycosaminoglycans, such as dermatan sulfate and chondroitin sulfate16 and sulfated glycoproteins including hexosamines, such as glucosamine

I will start making my own dog food as well..already had plans on going up to Alaska and getting some salmon and other fish .....my parents have gardens at all their properties so for the time being I'll just steal some fruits and veggies from them til I get my greenhouses up and 🏃

Make sure you are giving your dog a balanced diet with the nutrients they need. I'm not an expert but I don't see calcium in this. You'd need egg shells or yogurt or an additive at least.

Interesting and informative comment!! Thanks

It's great you bring this point up! Not everyone knows this! You would be surprised how many people are not educated or taught to read labels. This is a great reply monmixer. Good job.

@Trash Man no not EVERYONE knows that. Believe me there are some dumb people out there that just don't pay attention or give a crap at all.

I always check the mg of sodium in a product.

Anyone is a good chef when cooking for a dog

Just gotta know when to say when sometimes..."control" is a human-thang!

She was over it 😆

I have a 5 lb 10 year old chihuahua. I have never fed her raw food she mainly eats canned food mixed with water because she has no teeth. Is it too late to switch her to raw feeding?

@@Iris873 never too late !!! it would be so good for her health for the rest of her life, and you can mash homemade dog food up a bunch or even blend it and make it so much easy for her to eat without teeth !

How much do you feed your lab? I have a 60lbs lab/sharpei mix & I want to start making homemade food. I can't find any place that says how much to actually give your dog after you cook everything though.

That's amazing. How do I know what to feed my dog I've just got a toy poodle puppy

:)

I have 2 dogs and they love it. I add some beef liver and chicken hearts. Probably not as much as you did. Also use broth for dogs and sweet potatoes and carrots.

Well, actually I didn't feed it to my friend...I just left the kitchen for a moment and when I returned to see him eating the dog's food & enjoying it I didn't have the heart to tell him what he was eating. Boy was the dog confused/pissed!! Ha!

B Barnett - haha that happens for sure lol

@@bbarnett3469 pfft lol lawdy.....maybe next time put a warning label on it lol

@@morpro4u Ha, Ha,...now everytime he sees the crock-pot on the counter he asks "what's cookin'?" (inside joke) He did actually notice that the rest of the (crock-pot) food went to the dogs.

@@bbarnett3469 lolol...sorry. My chest still hurts from yesterday when I seen your comment .. better yet prefer to be a fly on the wall so I can see the reaction 🤣

Feel free to leave the eggs out until prices come down :)

Glad to hear!

God bless you my friend.💜🫰🏼

This is the down to earth sensible version. Wait till you see people feeding their little loved ones stuff like organic shrimp and organic salmon. Now that's disgusting to see.

Hi there, I know I’m a year late lol!! But my dog is a lab/pit just a little smaller than a German shepherd and I’m making this meal for him now. How much of it did you feed your doggies? Just trying to get an idea of how much to portion. Thank you!

@@emmawalker2532 I've seen these questions asked repeatedly, which is why I explained that you must calculate the calories/per cup (I prefer per ounce) so you can compare the number of calories you've been feeding your dog (check the back of the kibble bag for calories/cup), and the amount in the recipe.

Prince was only switched to my food a few months before this video. He was on kibble most his life. My dog is in my other dog food vides. Good luck on your homemade dog food journey! Remember, this is not all I feed.

It's better to feed dogs raw food. Only humans cook food and we are the most unhealthy beings on the planet, go figure

@@uptownscenery9175 for a bunch of unhealthy beings we sure live long!

Virginia Preston how much do you feed them? All videos I’ve watched are feeding little guys...I have 2 standard poodles...thanks...

@@karenacevedo9853 about 3 cups a day , I get chicken hearts , gizzards and liver plus 3 leg 1/4 cook it off the bone add peas green beans and chopped carrots add to cups of rice cook till done . You can really put anything in it .

Virginia Preston thank you...

Good idea. I got mine 4 months ago and she refused to eat kibbles so we’ve been feeding her canned food. She got sick and lost appetite plus diarrhea. The vet just told us she has liver problems from the canned food. She’s on treatment and will be okay.

Thanks Kay! Be sure to check out my other dog food videos! This was a budget recipe, others have more options

Not only a high amount of calcium but also high in Omega-3 fatty acids as well as protein obviously.

Glad to hear!

May I ask what has helped her coat?

My dog gets struvite crystals too. I'm overwhelmed with cooking/raw, and the pre-made raw is so expensive:( May I ask what other recipes you use? Do you test your dog's urine PH to make sure it's in line. I'm scares to change, but with her allergies it's time.

@@stacy9694 Hi Stacy, I'm sorry to hear your dog has struvites too. It can be tricky to cook for them but after trying home cooked meals, I found that he prefers simple meals, just meat, rice, and veggies. I just boil ground meat (chicken, beef, or pork) twice, discarding the broth. I steam green leafy vegetables then mix it with the meat and plain rice. I sometimes use brown or white, whichever is available. As for the serving, I now do combination of dog food and the home cooked meals. I just wash the dog food prior to mixing it with the home cooked meal to remove the flavouring that companies usually add. I also add water to the food to increase his water intake. I hope you find what works well with you and your pup. Prayers 🤗

Call an herbal veterinarian they will help you with that. I have a puppy I give her a variety of meats/origins/bone, herbs, vitamins, goat milk,chicken eggs and quail eggs. Most of the time they are eating raw which is better sometimes I half cook the meats. If you need help with finding deals and feeding I will help you.

@@kenzwill6508 that's where I got my meals from. People on FB say there are many ways of balancing. I chose to balance over a weeks time with different ingredients. My puppy is way healthier than any puppy I've had on so called balanced premium kibble food. Her health test came back 100%

This video is a great starting off point but this is not an all balanced diet. And going to a holistic vet would be better than the standard vet but a vet is not where I would go for nutrition. Don't get me wrong... The majority of vets knows what's good for dogs but after all they specialize in medicine not nutrition. Any raw food company will know much much more about what a dog needs vs any vet. It's their job. I don't cook my dogs food and if you want the absolute healthiest option than no cooking is required. I also 99% of the time stick away from beans and grains. And I change up the protein with every new bag I get. As a little tip raw bones will help numb the gums during the teething process making it less painful. You could also fill up a kong or another similar toy or even buffalo horns with peanut butter or canned food than freezing them. If you get peanut butter make sure there are only peanuts in there. Salt is fine as long as it's less than one to two percent. As a another starting off point these are the ingredients for the raw duck primal. Even if you don't get the food itself it gives you an idea of what a balanced diet starts to look like. (As William said there are many ways to achieve a balanced diet) Duck, Duck Necks, Organic Kale, Duck Gizzards, Duck Hearts, Organic Carrots, Organic Squash, Duck Livers, Organic Broccoli, Organic Apples, Organic Blueberries, Organic Cranberries, Organic Pumpkin Seeds, Organic Sunflower Seeds, Montmorillonite Clay, Organic Parsley, Organic Apple Cider Vinegar, Salmon Oil, Organic Coconut Oil, Organic Quinoa Sprout Powder, Dried Organic Kelp, Organic Ground Alfalfa, Vitamin E Supplement. This is a balanced diet. At a bare minimum i would stick to 80% meats bones and organs. But I wouldn't go higher than 90%

Right lol

🤣🤣

thats not ocd......

money thanks doc

That’s not ocd at all…

ABSOLUTELY. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW THIS AS WELL.

I home cook as well, I feed room temperature as they don't have hot meals naturally. Its fully cooked so...

I feed such a wide variety of foods. From home cooked, to raw meat and bones, fresh caught fish, homemade muscle and organ meat jerky and more. I don't measure my food, or my dogs.

You will probably be fine this time because feet bones are small. But, the general rule is to never feed cooked bones to dogs, only raw.
