I love that this man rebelled even if it meant he was not going to be forking in the big bucks. I am listening to his advice more closely after I found out. I love our animal friends and am sort of a folk hero here in Puerto Rico. In Hurricane Hortense (extreme rain and flooding) I swam to the local dog pound after leaving my car on a bridge and saved the lives of over 300 animals trapped by the flood waters there. Most were already swimming in 3-4 feet of water in their cages when I rescued them. My 19 yrold son went with me, no one else was there except a vet and a vet technician. One of my favorite days beside the day I gave birth and the two days I saved two human lives. Long after "Indiana Joan" which is what my son used to call me has disappeared in time and I have become an old 65 year old lady I think back with a lot of satisfaction on the times I saw danger and injustice and it called me to action above and beyond my own safety and wellbeing. God bless you Doc for your selflessness. 😇🥰😇🥰

I quit everything depressing in my life when I gave all my efforts to helping animals

I've been making this for my dogs for years. I use chicken thighs or ground turkey, sweet potatoes or carrots and frozen spinach or peas. I also crack eggs into it! I literally make this a one pot meal, like a giant stew. No need for multiple pans. Then I use gallon size freezer bags to store it!!

The problem with over cooking the meat is that it kills the amino acids and vitamins. Swiss chard contains a lot of oxalates, so be careful as to how much and how frequently you give it as it can cause stones. Bok choy is a better choice. Brown rice also contains arsenic, so you have to wash it several times before cooking it in a lot of water. Real olive oil is also better than sunflower oil. You can find sufficient calcium in vegetables. Never give calcium carbonate. Give calcium citrate if necessary.

I'm no vet, but I am a dude, and I'm a huge supporter of cooking and feeding your dog whole and fresh food. I only do it a few times a week at most as I don't even eat this good myself lol, but there is absolutely a correlation with health issues and just feeding dry kibble... Give your pup some real food! Imagine eating cereal your whole life...

This man is a angel.

Food aside. Your dog is an angel to sit so patiently watching this stuff being made!

Thanks for making this so accessible to people who want better than commercial dog food but don't want to risk nutritional deficiencies.

My sister bred dogs & has 3 dogs of her own. She cooks up her own dog food like this & has done it for 3 decades. Her dogs live longer than average. This video is a Keeper for when I get a dog.

I use silicone muffin tins to portion out and freeze my pomeranian's homemade food (been making his food and snacks since he was a baby) The frozen "muffins" are super easy to pop out for storing in a freezer bag.

So hard to find a vet that commits to a homemade nutritionally balanced meal.... been looking for something like this for 4 years with actual calcium and minerals supplements. Thank you!🤗🐶🐾

I do chicken thighs in the pressure cooker, sweet potatoes, mixed veggies and rice. My dogs have been eating this for almost 18 months and at ages 13 and 11 they are healthy and vibrant. We also noticed that the inflammation from arthritis has decreased a ton. These are both larger dogs, 85 and 90 lbs so to see how this diet has helped them in their older age makes me happy. I only wish I did this much sooner in their lives.

Dr Jones I found you a few months ago and I am so grateful to you for doing what you do. Thank you so much for bringing a new perspective to dog health care. As a former vet tech surgical assistant I saw a lot of things that left me scratching my head and made me distrustful of a lot of the things that go on at vet hospitals. You are a breath of fresh air and I recommend that all of my puppy adopters watch your channel. In fact I did a video on vaccinations and suggested to everyone that they visit your channel! Keep up the amazing and much needed work that you do.

Thank you Dr Jones for all that you do for our animals. Please don't stop. Thousands of people(including myself) look to you for advice on how we can best take care of our pets affordably and without being pressured into needlessly expensive procedures and recommendations by those that care more about money than helping our animals.

I love how the dog keeps inching closer and closer. So cute!

I make a similar dog food, but instead of rice I use the same amount of quinoa and my dogs love it. I have one that doesn’t like brown rice so I switched to quinoa and they all seem to love it more. The overall health of my dogs has improved so much over the past three years since they started eating my homemade food.

I have 9 rescue cats. My friend sent me one of your videos last week. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us. I was stressed on going back to vet for $300 + vet bills. Panacur for worms tip really helped me out with my fur babies. It's $42 bucks a pop at vets office. Smh . You actually care about the critters/folks over the all mighty dollar . I salute you🫡

I made this food and let me tell u its so rewarding to see my dog LOVING her food. She loves ppl food so I stopped letting her have that and she got depressed.. this is super exciting to see her enjoy her meal. Thank u so much for sharing this video. It truly warms my heart .

I have been making my dogs' food for almost 2 years. What a difference this has made in their health. I've made several mistakes though ; too much liver ( black poop ) too much live is dangerous-you don't need much and too much Tumeric ( yellow poop.) oops ! Ok, so I believe Dr Jones has got it covered and I'll be following his advice. So proud and honored to have come across his KZfaq channel and love his free book. Thank you Dr Jones You are the Very Best!

I have made homemade dog food for years,hit and miss ingredients. So grateful for this informative recipe and guidance. Off to the store, then cooking this. Thank you over and over…

My great grandfather used to feed his horses raw eggs, so that their coat was healthy and shiney. I read a vet medicinal book from the 1800s. It recommended feeding plow horses hemp/Marijuana in good size portions (don't remember the portions vs hay). One of the big benefits that was attributed to this mix was that the horses were happy plowing in circles all day. Happy horses are better workers, same as happy people. A good work environment makes for happy workers.

Love your videos and all the great tips. Two years ago I adopted what I was told was a six year old Pomeranian. Well, he wasn't neutered, house trained, or vaccinated. He had ten rotten teeth, and gross crusts in the corners ofboth eyes. After his teeth cleaning and extractions, and feeding him a healthy diet he has gained gained five pounds, and is not over weight at 19lbs. His poop looks normal and has little odor, before it was a thin as my little finger, and looked like a stick of chalk. His eyes are bright, no crusts, but sadly he is totally blind, the vet said he is at least ten years old, probably more, I often feed him wild salmon, brown rice, eggs and veggies, and Ezekiel flourless sprouted bread toasted which he loves, he now looks and acts like a totally different dog. Although this free dog, has now cost well over $2000.00 in vet bills so far, and needs another $2000.00 worth of dental extractions. He'd better live at least another six years to make up for it. That's the least he could do! LOL He is a mini-German Spitz, not a Pomeranian. He went from about to be euthanized to being a happy healthy animal, that everyone makes a fuss of, and will likely enjoy many more years of being pampered. Thank you so much for the recipe, and mentioning about all the added supplements, I am going to add it to Schatzi's menu. No doubt he'll be doing a lot more pirouettes when demanding his dinner!

I have been feeding my bulldog your turkey homemade recipe from years ago. He had been having horrible skin issues and interdigital cyst. In the few weeks he’s been eating your recipe ( he absolutely loves btw) his dry skin stopped flaking, no more yeasty smell, hair stopped falling out. All around happier pup. We still are dealing with the interdigital cyst but that is a whole war in itself. I am gonna try this beef recipe and see if the turkey could be a trigger for him. Thanks Dr. Jones for loving all our babies like you do.

Thank you for your homemade dog food ideas. I have been making my own dog food for over a year now, after two of my dogs died from eating commercial dog food. I feed them three meals a day, small portions, starting with organic ground beef over quinoa, then sardines with brown rice, and finally ground pork with peas and carrots. I'll be adding flax, calcium and eggs after watching your video. Thank you so much! Krista

She really does look very happy watching you cook all of this for her. She looks like such a healthy dog. I love this, thank you so much for sharing this.

I love this. I have a Saint Bernard and another 95 pound German Shepherd Lab mix so I might just have to supplement this as a meal a couple times a week. But it’s got to help. I always try to give them fresh organ meats a couple times weekly as is but this was so informative. Finding a good dog food feels impossible. Those marketed are crazy expensive!!

I have been making homemade dog food with rice, baked sweet potatoes, steamed green beans or carrots and peas and chicken. My Son’s dog loves it.

Pretty good recipe some things I like to add to my dogs food are diatomaceous earth, spirulina, phytoplankton, milk thistle, turmeric, saurkrout, mushrooms, apple cider vinegar, honey. herbs, cinomin and a freeze dried mix of glands and organs. Not all at once of course I switch it up.

My dogs been much healthier and happier since I started cooking her food. She eats a mix of chicken, eggs, rice, sweet potatoes, reg potatoes & frozen mixed veggies. All cooked and combined it looks kinda like fried rice w chicken. She loves it. Before cooking for her she had crazy, crazy allergies. Now? Nope.

Would cod liver oil be good to use instead of sunflower due to the vitamin d and a?

I stopped feeding my dogs with dog food. Brown rice, egg, pumpkin, turmeric, fish oil or omega supplement, home cooked meat, chicken breast or liver and lean meat pork. My 10 yr old and 8 yr old aspens loved it. Their fur is shinier and they become more vigorous. My 10 yr old eye sight had improved too.❤

I rescued a 5 yr old Queensland Red/Merl Heeler!!! I’ve had her 2 months. Poor thing would sneak up on kibble. Bowl stayed full all day . Was constipated. She literally knocks me down at feeding time now. Can barely make her sit so excited. Beautiful coat , prancing around like a puppy. Amazing diet change has done , a changed animal. Thank you sir for all you do❤

Just ran across this and I am a fan of dogs eating what folks call “people” food which I give my dog off and on. I will be trying this recipe. My dog has digestive issues at times. Thanks for this information, I will be watching ❤️👍

so funny you posted this! I was just talking tonight about swapping my dogs' canned food out for homemade food! Thanks for this! :)

Love Dr. Jones. Thank You Dr. Jones for all you do for us pet parents and our furbabies.

This is a great recipe. I been reading many many comments about different recipes and preparations. One of the best ones I came across, because of my upbringing and background, is of a woman who cans her dog food. She also described the types of meats as her family are hunters. I was very impressed because I had forgotten about canning meat. Why not can dog food?

Love this Vet! So many good tips we can do at home!! He is AWESOME!!

Thanks Dr. Jones! I feel so vindicated! I just made my two Chihuahuas some homemade dog food…With: cooked lean hamburger, mixed in 6 eggs, One and a half cup cooked brown rice, finely ground clean eggshells, ground flax seed, hemp seed hearts, cooked carrots, frozen fresh kale, avocado oil. The carrots were nearly done steaming and I added the kale and I put them in the blender briefly. My girls don’t like to see those vegetables, but it taste good.Then I tossed all of the ingredients together in a big bowl, and then I divided it into portions . Placing them into, freezer bags for their daily meal . This actually helped me feed my little Phoebee , who had 3 teeth extracted , one with stitches, and dental cleaning. Phoebee will not open her mouth for me, even to get in an antibiotic or pain pill. So…she did suffer last night, plus she would not drink or eat, but this morning I gave her plastic medicine dispenser full of water every hour about 3, and gave her a small bit of honey as an antibiotic. They did give her a shot , but so happy to do it naturally. Her daughter Dottie liked the new food also, and I know they will grow to love it.

Thank you so excited to make my girls this recipe. God bless you for caring to share your time in helping our first babies🐶💙

My own dogs and my rescues all eat raw eggs incl shell. They incl veg, brown rice, lentils, whole sardines and liver. They love their eggs. None of my dogs have treats and they all have great appetites. It’s so satisfying to watch them eat healthy food and enjoy it.

I can't imagine cooking with my dog up on the counter!!

Excited to make this! You said the calcium is basically ground up eggshells. Have you considered just throwing the eggs whole into a blender and blending them up? Seems like a waste to throw away the eggshells and they buy powdered eggshells and add them back in.

So grateful for all the effort you put in to help us look after our furbabies better 🙏❤️

I just found this guy and I plan to go into veterinary practice soon. I can learn so much from him.

I’ve been waiting for a video from you on the home made dog food. THANK YOU SO MUCH!! and Tula of course😊👍

I am definitely keeping this recipe! It sounds delicious...maybe I'll even give some to my pups!😉 Thanks Doc Jones!

I'm so glad i found this Vet!! ❤️

Just made this today for my picky Pomeranian, but love of my life and has tummy issues. She LOVED this, a little too much. She loves food, but has never had “dog food”. I’ve always stuck with chicken or turkey and she did ok with it, but after a while she just wouldn’t eat it. So happy she likes this. Now I have a new recipe to change around with. 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻

I just made this food today and my gosh my fur babies ( doggies ) loved it ! I just ordered the two products you mentioned in this also . I just cannot thank you enough . I know my dogs are not getting the nutrition they need with white rice and low fat meat . They are all sick in various ways . I’m so grateful for you and the work you do . I’m Very much a holistic girl that’s vegan and I new that going vegan for my dogs was out of the ? . But it’s the vitamin and minerals I think that will really help them . God bless you for helping the ones without voices . I cannot express how grateful I am for you . Love and light to you and all the animals you help . I cannot wait to get my order of your products. Ty again ♥️🙏

You are my favourite vet 💙 helping me love my very special dogs who mean the world to me - sending love from Australia ❤ thank you

I would love a copy of this book, I have two Doberman’s, a fawn and a blue with Skin allergies and sensitive stomach, I raise my own chickens and Im able to buy fresh pasture raised beef. It’s been so nice to be able to make at least half the food they eat. I do buy some local kibbles that are made with high quality ingredients because I really was worried about the dogs getting enough vitamins and minerals. This is great help! We all thank you!

So grateful for you Dr jones , god bless you we need more people like you ❤

Thank you so much, this is exactly what I was looking for! Clear, easy to follow & easy to make.

Always appreciate your videos, going to make this for my pups. Thank you for showing labels on the products used, if you use them then I trust them. To our family you are a "real vet," because you care and have integrity which is far and few between these days🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾

Tula ( tout là) in French means “complete , all here” . Love you as a vet and your wonderful holistic approach. Works wonderfully. Thank goodness for your videos / channel!

Thanks very much for the recipes! I love your insights and advice!

This is exactly what I need for my 2 girls! Thank you so very much! ❤️❤️❤️🐶🐶🐶

Love your videos Doc. My dog is so fussy to feed so I appreciate these tips.

This man is a wonderful guy He has given his life to helping our pets live their best lives!! Thank you Dr Jones and your free E book is fantastic

THANKS ...... GOOD to see you. You and Tula. Hope you and fam are well. Norridge .IL.

I am not a dog owner but I have 2 grand dogs and will past on this very valuable information to my daughter. She has recently making her 2 dogs homemade food. But I think she's missing important ingredients. So I thank you for providing such important advice. Hope she'll subscrbe.

So One of my two dogs have chronic dry eyes/high infection problems. Eyedrops help and i’ve been giving her green tea and honey and her water bowl. The second of the two dogs, a big male pug, has food intolerances. He also has a yeast imbalance, which smells like corn chips! Lol So my son purchased A dry dog food with limited ingredients hydrolyzed. Our Male pug has been on that food for three months with very little improvement. Dry commercial dog food is not the answer!! We have almost all these ingredients you mentioned above already on hand so we are going to make up this recipe in your video and try this for a few months! I bet this will be the answer to most if not all, of his health issues!! Thank you doctor for posting this video we are getting right on this food first thing tomorrow morning and I will report back later on how well this new diet is working for him! We’re pretty excited about this new diet! Geez, I can remember as a kid we had dogs friends other neighbors and relatives had dogs or dogs were never sick or had all of these issues dogs have today. I’m talking 50 years ago! But there’s so much so many chemicals and just bad stuff and fillers in these dog foods, even canned dog food look at the massive recalls! This commercial dog food and cat foods are not healthy for our pets any longer it’s not 50 years ago anymore any pet companies are more about making money than they are keeping our dogs healthy! This must be the reason why we’re starting to see “human grade” dog foods available. Also we have to realize that you just can’t give your dog food off your plate because they need balanced ingredients in their food and that’s why your video up there so important for people to understand don’t just throw your dog table scraps! Lol dogs need vitamins and a balanced meal that’s provided in the video of homemade dog food. Wow, great video!

Thank you so much for your videos. What a help they are! Little Tula is such a good girl. .

Dr. Jones THANK YOU! You have reassured me and have helped me numerous of times. Youve also saved me so much money. I give your knowledge to family, friends, and strangers. Again, thank you for what you do for so many people!

Excellent video. I will definitely be making this and adding your wonderful supplements. Thank you Dr. Jones 👍👍

Thank you! I have been doing this for my dog for the last year and he's healthier than ever. I got a few extra tips from this video and I will be incorporating them next batch!

I cooked with you today Dr. Jones! I am excited to do my next batch and use this recipe as I hone in on doing this for my babies. This is a fantastic guide and after talking to my vet and then having your guidance in the kitchen, I feel like it’s doable. Thank you! 💖

Dr Jones is very good.Thank you.This info is so cost effective .

I love your videos! This is wonderful and will try with my 3 dogs. My oldest dog, Norman, a lab mix has benefitted from your videos on ear problems. Can’t wait to try this diet for my fur babies; Lab mix, Corgi, and Bernese Mountain dog. Thank you.

I'm so glad you have made your own vitamins for our pets I so will order it❤

Thank you so much for these videos. Your vast knowledge and kindness is like a gift from heaven

Dr. Jones...just want you to know I have been making this recipe for my dogs for 2 weeks. They love it and I love knowing they are healthier. It is time for me to try something else but just wanted to thank you for all your help . I have ordered several things from your site. Thank you!

Thank you. I love seeing homemade food

Thank you, I needed this recipe!

This channel is absolute gold thank you.

Organ meats are essential- but only organic. I feed my 16 year old Long Hair Mini Dachshund RAW organic chicken liver and RAW organic chicken hearts along with a homemade Organic : COOKED turkey, carrot, celery,eggs, Olive oil, omega 3 oil and an organic probiotic which has vitamins for an older dog. She is still a very playful pup and has LOTS of energy🥰❣️

Thank you! I have made it before but didn't add everything you did. How very helpful!!! I am about to start making it again....had four foot surgeries in 10 months and its been quite a year! I am now at the point where I am walking better and can do it!

My son's girlfriends family recently bought a Golden Retriever puppy who is having digestive problems already, so I've sent her the details of you fantastic podcast and website etc. Thank you soo much.

I'm going to support u all the way thank u for everything will be buying all your vitamins you provide because you are such a loyal honest human

Just Brilliant! Thank you Dr Jones. I’m Definitely going to be doing this for my dog 👍❤️🤗

HA ! And all those books touting to feed our dogs RAW MEAT ! I’ll take Dr. Jones’ advice ANY day !

I love watching Dr Jones videos...he is so pro natural products for common health issues.

Thank you so much for this! My Corgis have been eating dehydrated food for dinner for a couple of years, along with things like kale, blueberries, apple, and other fruits and veggies, but I had still been giving them kibble for breakfast. I've been wanting to replace it, but things like the Farmer's Dog are $8 per day, which is a lot, and I was nervous about making food for them. You make it so easy. It looks like I can take a nice recipe like this, include the proper nutrients, and still add in some of the fruits and veggies they like. Thank you.

Im thrilled! Your took my suggestion for a youtube Ha! Love it! I feed only raw to my 21 year cat!~. Best Medicine E V E R. !!!!

My recipe is almost tge same as this one. Made me feel great to know. I addchicken livers and turkey. Plus I grind up 1/2 egg shell per meal to increase protein, spinach and brussel sprouts and shredded carrots, because my dog loves them

Love this channel love this veterinarian ❤ I learn more here than I am getting from my own vet !!!

Your videos are so useful! I think I have searched them all but didn't see one. I'm looking for a video for homemade urinary SO dog food. Thank you!

Dr. Jones! Great video as always! I’m doing what you’ve advised from years ago on the C word. Dandelion root has shrunk her jowls with no nodules under her throat. I’d have to literally make a list of how holistic Trudyloo’s body is and she feels great! The Boswellia Serrata and Organic Cucumin we start today. You’d not believe my cabinets! All love! Going slow watching her body change for the good. We’ve beaten 6 months to be going on 10 months and refuse to give up, give in and will go to Panacur if necessary. I’m at the point wondering if my vet diagnosed her right because with all your help, nodules gone and Jowls are 75% less. If anyone needs help with the crappie diagnosis of lymphoma, I’m more than happy to give you Trudyloo’s diet, the time of day as it’s regulated big time. If it wasn’t for Dr. Jones, I know I’d be saying a heart breaking comment here. Please pray for my best friend Trudyloo? We would be so unbelievably grateful to all and any prayers! It’s so amazing how much love our pets give us. I’m a realistic person mind you but you’d have to see how my Trudy is and has come so far. As I said. I will not give up on her. She never has on me and for that, I would do anything for her as well. God bless all and everyone here with a huge thank you to my favorite Vet. Dr. Jones! Take care if anyone reads this as I love you too! 🌹💫🌹💫🌹💫🌹💫🌹

Doc. Could you please include information on a homemade diet for cats please, thanks.

Doc you are the best! Thank you for this video. We have transitioned to home cooked food for our chow as our vet advised it would be best to avoid cancer etc. It's been hard to research portions, recipes etc so we really appreciate this.

My pup has recurring pancreatitis that we've managed well for a long time. She is half on wet food, Royal Canin low fat/gastro and half homemade. My vet said to avoid beef because of the fat content so I use chicken (sometimes some fish) but I make something very similar to what you've made. I add some sweet potato and carrot too. Love the flax idea!

Awesome Dr. Jones...this is exactly what I was hoping for. Suggesting which supplements to add to the meal plan was a bonus. I also like the make ahead weekly food plan as I have been cooking daily instead. I need a little break from the kitchen. How can a pet parent know which human grade vitamins and supplements are safe to give to your fur babies? Many thanks in advance for your professional guidance...love your channel!!!

You could easily make a pretty awesome dinner for your family with the same ingredients minus the supplements, and have perfect well-balanced meal for everyone in the house! You can make a meatloaf with the ground beef and have the vegetable on the side with rice as another side. I say meatloaf because you need an egg to make a meatloaf. The entire evolution of a dog a family dog is it loves the food that people cook. That's the whole reason why they're around! And we get the benefits of love and protection

Thank you looking forward to 2 healthy dog’s. The eldest is a four year old German Shepherd. The second is a poodle and terrier mix. Both very adorable and I love them to pieces. ❤

thank you so much Dr. Jones. Pipi looks so much like my Thunder. She's so adorable. I love the recipe, I will definitely try it. I also love the itchy episode. It will definitely help Thunder and other two Brussel Griffons Lola and Charcoal.

Thank you so so much ! with all the issues in pet food this video has given me the path I have been looking for in feeding my fur babies 💗💛😁🌻

Can you do a video on feeding cooked vs raw food. Would love to know the pros and cons of either

Thank you for sharing!! Loved it!

Thank you so much..just found you in perfect time. I have a mini Yorkie and a Vizsla. This is exactly what I've been looking for. SAFE food I know what's in it. Especially with home grow eggs and your supplements. Love and Light.

I'd really like to see more recipes specifically for toy sized chihuahuas please 😊
