Homemade Dog Food Is Cheap and Easy To Make

by Monique Coincon

Preparing your dog food at home can be the best way to keep your dog healthy.You might think that this is very time consuming but with practice and good recipes you can end up with a healthy dog.

So why give yourself this additional work when it is easier to walk to the store and buy ready made canned dog food? The first reason is that you are in control of the kind of food you end up serving your dog.

Next, it can also be cheaper to make it yourself. Even if you purchase your dog's food in bulk, you can still save money by preparing his food at home.

You have more choices of different recipes to try on your dog when you prepare the food yourself. You can make special diets to your dog's taste.

Some things to keep in mind when making your dog food are avoid salt and to use lean cuts of meat. In order to make the food healthier, you want to mind the fat and sodium content, just as you would when cooking healthily for people. Avoiding salt is a good idea to keep the sodium down, but also because salt has a tendency to dehydrate. Increasing your dog's thirst is not the best idea!

Choose lean ground meat like ground turkey which is both a cheaper alternative with lower saturated fat compared to lean red meat.

The amount you should prepare at any given time will depend on the size of your dog, how often he eats in a day and how often you would want to do the cooking. Any food not eaten should be refrigerated for up to 5 days only.

Lastly when changing your dog's diet do it gradually. Adding small portions will help avoid any digestion problems - 20511
