About this ebook
“Easy, super-healthy, vet-approved recipes your dog will adore.” —Modern Dog magazine
Healthy food can enable dogs to live longer, healthier lives, just as it can for humans, and with these meals, treats, and cookies, dogs will never miss commercial kibble.
Rick Woodford, aka the Dog Food Dude, has researched nutrition for dogs and used the same manuals veterinarians use to develop his recipes. Feed Your Best Friend Better makes the transition to homemade dog food simple, so you can make natural pet food every day. From nutritional value to portion sizes, these recipes will help dog parents know what their dog is eating. The meals are healthy, and dogs love them—they’ll even make humans drool a little bit. Recipes use a variety of herbs and spices for their antioxidant properties and include:
* Puppy Pesto
* Bacon Yappetizers
* Barkscotti
* Mutt Loaf
* Gingerbread Mailman
In addition to eighty-five recipes, other helpful chapters include:
* How to Pick out a Commercial Food: making the ingredient label easy to understand with a breakdown of ingredients that are good for the bowl and those that are best left on the shelf
* Determining Portion Size; information on body type and size help readers understand how much food their dogs need to be in the best shape
* Problem Mealtime Behaviors; how to deal with the early morning wake up call, reluctant eaters, counter surfing and more

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I am a dog lover, they are my family. I have two loving sweet boys that I want the best for. I believe that food is one of the most important choices we make, everyday. When I shop I read labels, it is shocking what I see in some cans labeled 'healthy' by products are usually the first ingredient. I have often thought of making them food myself but did not have the confidence to do it, till now
This all started when-My older dog started to get itchy skin, ear infections and was just not looking himself. I took him to my vet, they prescribed medicines, for the itch, drops for the ears $$$. He was sleepy, lifeless and sad, but he did not itch. Yes, they worked, till he was off them and everything came back. I started to look at his food, wheat, corn, soybean products... I tried cutting out the different ingredients one at a time. I found that on a wheat free diet his symptoms diminished almost completely. It was all about the food, and I had been feeding him poor choices for years.
This book is the answer I have been searching for. It covers what ingredients to avoid and what to feed them. There is nutritional information, explaining their daily needs and how to deliver the right balance in their food. Detailed nutritional facts, with easy examples. Their are pages on special diets for health problems. diabetes, liver diseases, and other ailing issues.
The recipes are easy and fun. I love the 'Foods to Share' chapter. Who doesn't like to share with your loved ones ? My dogs went crazy for the Sweet Potato fries. I am going to try the Dutch baby Pancake next. Really is this for the dogs too? My boys are sure loving the idea. The Lazyagne was made and devoured with out haste. there are cookies, jerkies, stews, loafs.... so many to try.
The book is beautiful filled with heart warming photos of humans and their dogs. I layout is easy to use and search for just the right information. If you have a dog, or are gong to get one this book is a must have.
