Homemade Dog Food
Make Fresh Food at Home Inspired by Farmer's Dog
In this video I make The Farmers Dog food recipe and explain why I decided to not order from Farmers dog anymore.
Instant Pot Duo 7-in-1 - amzn.to/3nHgB0q
Farmers Dog Food Review - • The Farmer's Dog Revie...
Vet Approved homemade dog food recipe (This makes about 22 cups)
*I used a 8qt instant pot for this recipe (I doubled this in video)
Ingredients:
-5-6 pounds of ground turkey
-7.5 ounces of pumpkin puree
-2T sunflower oil
-2 sweet potatoes chopped
-1 1/2C brown rice or white rice
-7oz of frozen spinach
- 4 carrots chopped
-12oz green beans
-12oz peas
-1 pint of fresh blueberries
-2C water
- 1/3C of beef liver chopped
optional: 1/4t of turmeric powder & Black Pepper
I fed my dog a homemade recipe of ground turkey, liver, spinach, carrots, blueberries and sweet potatoes. I added 5 Defenders Mushroom powder in her later years. She was generally healthy and lived to 17.5 and when it was time for her to leave us it was very peaceful and due purely to old age.
yes she is
17.5 years?!!!!💞🙌👍 What is Defender's Mushroom?
do you have a recipe for cats? I’d love that.
@@4America2024 I do not sorry but we have a cat maybe I will look into it
Did you give her any Vitamin and Mineral Supplements?
Those few of you watching this that AREN’T dog owners probably won’t understand this, but as a dog owner, if making your own food makes your dog healthier, happier, and live even just a week longer, it’s 100% worth it. ❤
Agree 1000%
I agree. How much are your vet bills going to be if they are sick? Also, it is terrible to watch them when they suffer
I started doing this since I had past dogs die from cancer, plus look at all the dog food recalls that happen.
Avoid using aluminum pans. Get a large stainless steel bowl. Also using a paint mixer in a plastic bucket could introduce plastic shavings into the dog food.
You don’t have to have a dog to know that
I took my little dog to the vet. He did blood work. He asked me what did I feed my dog. I thought ought oh he is going to fuss at me. He remarked she had the healthiest blood in a dog he had seen in a long time. I told him I cook for her! I was so proud.
What's your recipes??
@@marcusbryant6762 different things. I buy turkey and freeze portion. Chicken. Liver. Any good quality meat and organic or pasture raised if I can. I give kale, spinach, potatoes or sweet potato. Squash.. flax seed. Whatever I eat they get. Except chocolate, grapes etc. Salmon .. I forget to say that. They get yogurt sometimes. I also keep a bowl of Solid Gold and they will eat that sometimes if I am not cooking. I buy little cartons of chicken brand Natures Recipe. They get that sometimes with a sweet potatoe or sometimes pumpkin. So I don’t have a recipe I just try to make it fresh and tasty. I am almost 80 so I know when I leave these world whoever they live with will have well behaved good eaters. The lady I got them from rescues and she gave me these two and promised to take them back. My other dogs passed. One came from the pound and one I rescued … you know the oldest dog in the world is 31. Only eats table scraps. My Grandmother fed her bull dog table scraps and he was 18 when he died.
Nancyhutton1074 thats amazing!!🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
@@nancygntnwhat is solid gold?
@@leewashaleski7719 it is dry dog food. I used to see it at Whoke Foods. It is supposed to be organic. They like it too. I know most people ard not going to cook for their babies. So I wanted them to have some commercial food.
How lucky is the world that YOU decided to put this on TH-cam to help pet owners save money and more importantly to help pets EAT HEALTHIER Because YOU decided to share YOUR talent, COMPASSION and Skill with the world.... you are amazing to help everyone just because YOU CARE.... (((( God bless you and your family and pet/s))) sincerely, Shay Thank you!
But his dog doesn’t look healthy, it looks overweight.
@@Net_26 and so is the rest of America OVERWEIGHT... STOP being so judgemental Net 26... You probably are overweight your dang self. Leave the dog alone!!!!!
@@Net_26he said she’s lost weight since being on this.
If your dog doesn't get exercise and gets a dog treat. Then, a dog can become overweight. I noticed that even a dog can slow down over time due to age, breed of dog, and food.
since that video Sable has lost a lot of weight and look great! we just moved into a house but when we get settled I am going to make an update video so I hope you watch :) @@Net_26
Your dog is eating a better diet than 95% of children today.
This is for upper middle class ppl who do not pay rent
@@someusername4129This level perhaps yes, cooking for dog vs. buying all from store no. In long run it's been cheaper to supplement homemade.
Please cite a peer reviewed source for your statement.
What a ridiculous statement. Did u just make that up? Cuz 95% is a high #
Children aren't carnivores.
You can add 6 eggs to that 2 week recipe and put the eggshells in the oven for awhile and then grind the eggshells to powder and mix in the food for calcium. 😊
Yes! Eggs and shells are another great ingredient! 👍 🫶🫶🫶
Eggs give my dog diarrhea! I have to be so careful and only give her probably one or two in the amount he made.
How long do you roast the egg shells for?
@@baublesanddolls poach them first so the egg white is cooked. It'll help!
Oh wow did not know that. I will have to do that. I get my eggs fresh from my friends chickens
UPDATE: I made your recipe and can happily say that my dog loves it. I'd like to share something I did a bit differently that you may, or may not find helpful: Instead of peeling and cutting the sweet potatoes, I took the entire bag, lightly scrub brushed each, and simply placed in the pressure cooker with about 1 cup of water for approximately 10 minutes. When it was done, the peels practically fell off - very easy to remove with a fork. Then the sweet potatoes can be easily mashed and mixed with everything else.
Thanks again, your recipe is great!
thank you for the advice - we leave skin on - many vitamins and nutrients in skin - great job!
Lot of vitamins in the peel as it contacts to dirt . Clean soak for awhile?
It's great that you're telling about this recipe but you just damaged the company by one, taking their kindness to get you through to a next order by sending you the recipe so you could feed your dog, and, they will probably never ever send a recipe out to somebody else that found themselves in your situation. It would have been wiser to say hey I order from a dog food company, without giving the company name, and because my order was late in arriving I got a recipe to make dog food and I want to share it with y'all. It was very ungrateful and unwise for you to name that company, shame on you!
Where can I get recipe?
@@rebelbell2195 I don't know where you get that I'm naming the company that shared the recipe. Two different things. The food I ordered that made my dog sick was from Farmers Dog. They refunded my money, which is great and decent of them; however, they DID NOT send me a recipe. The recipe I used is from the great video channel on this page, The Buck Stops.
If any food or product makes a person or animal sick, for whatever reason, it is appropriate and responsible for a consumer to share such information in the event it may help others.
I like that he faces issues and overcame them and kept going. Dogs are worth it!!!
A word of advice on using your Instant Pot.... Do not drop your ingredients into the pot with inner pot inside the base. The base is sensitive and that little spring sensor could be damaged as a result. It's better to fill the inner pot while it's on your counter and then place it gently into to base. I had an Instant Pot fail on me that was brand new and realized that is what happened. Thank you for sharing this recipe. I will definitely try it for my dog. ❤
Thanks for the instant pot advice! Valuable information!
Thank you!
Very much appreciate your tip on the instant pot. I'm a 70 year old widow and I believe you should learn something new everyday. God bless you and your family 👑🙏💞✝️🐾🕯
Wow, great to know! Thank you
Thanks Brainy Smurf
I had a great laugh when you said the dog food company provided you with a recipe to hold you over until the next shipment arrived 😂 The only reason this company can still be in business is so many people won't take an hour a week to process healthy homemade food. I have a 12 year old lab that gets my homemade food made weekly. She has leukemia for the last 2.5 years and her health has completely reversed. Im going to try your recipe today. Thanks!
And I loved the part where he tossed something over and broke a glass or something 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I think if you put a scoop or two of everything in each storage container, you can mix that up and save messing up two mixing bowls.
You have a farm house sink. Dump it all in there a stir it with a huge spoon. Just be cautious of the turmeric, or try it my itself in the sink. Should be just fine. Thanks
IKR!! I was like, Thank you very much, I will make my own!
Whats your recipe look like? I make stuff for my dog but typically still mix it with kibble for now
FYI, tumeric is best with curcumin (most effective for cancer fighting). BUT turmeric isn't activated unless you add black pepper (which IS safe for dogs)
True.
Curcumin is in Tumeric. And, there are different grades of tumeric. And curcumin is absorbed better if given with piperine (which is black pepper)
well black pepper is too spicy for shih tzu puppies.
I started making my own food a couple of decades years ago when my bull terrier was diagnosed with a protein allergy. I have 2 Sr small pups now and still make their own food. Once you begin making your pets own food, you can't stop. I have had my pups for 16 years and they are still going strong...just a lot slower. Thanks for sharing. Pets are family too. ❤
I have a bull terrier, what would you recommend for daily quantities? And what was your recipe? Supplements? Thank you!
That’s what my vet said too. Once you start they won’t like dry food. They’re not dumb. Lol
I'm so glad I read your comment. I just had to put down my little Maltese mix. My poodle Baby is now alone and not really excited about eating anymore. Just had her teeth done 2 months ago. She's 14 I feel bad I don't make enough money to take care of another dog. I am helping a cat now.
The best part of this video is the fact that you love your pups enough to take the time to make homemade wholesome food no matter the extra time or mess that is made in the process. Totally loved your video!
You are so kind thank you
YES! I was thinking the same thing!
We've been cooking for our three chows for nine years..takes a little bit of time but so worth it....they are very healthy and one is fourteen years old and looks like a young puppy.
@@lanadillard6080 Thanks for letting me know as we had been thinking about making the meals for our 13-year-old Chihuahua. You have just convinced me to do it. Thanks so very much :)
@@timothyallbritton7203 your very welcome! Best thing we ever did for our Chows was to make their own food...vet confirms it every physical...good luck and good health to your fur baby...
Here’s a tip, buy another pot for the instant pot. Makes it easier to cook multiple batches. This from someone who makes her dog’s food & has 2 -8qt IPs plus a 3 qt when we are away from home for a month, these pots are great. I also mixed the food in the food grade “busing” gray pans from Sam’s club. Makes mixing easier.❤ btw you can skip cooking spinach and frozen peas cause the hot meat will cook it down, plus reheating the food will cook the veggies before eating.
I choose to make our golden’s food because she could not hold down dog food as a pup. Plus dogs are dying sooner due to cancer and other illnesses, so its worth it to know whats in my babie’s food. Been doing this almost 7 years!
You are so right. We lost our 2 big babies, one a Golden to cancer. It was horrible! Since then I have read so much about how very bad the dog food is invthe USA. I HAD DOGS IN CUBA UNTIL THE GOVERNMENT TOOK EVERYTHING INCLUDING OUR HOUSE WITH MY 2 FOX TERRIERS, MY BILLY GOAT ( MY SWEET PET)
AND MY HENS THAT THEY STARTED FROM COLORED CHICKENS FROM THE FAIR. MY PARENTS WENT THROUGH SO MUCH!
THEY STARTED ANOTHER LIFE HERE IN NYC AND THEN AFTER 3 YEARS OF HARD WORK MY DAD AT 59 DIED OF LUNG CANCER. WHEN WE ARRIVED FROM CUBA MY DAD WAS 54
AND MOTHER WAS 46
WORKED AT BERGDORF
GOODMAN DEPARTMENT STORE ON 5TH AVE IN THE GIFT DEPT.
IN CUBA OUR DOGS ATE
GROUND BEEF, WHITE RICE, FRIED BANANAS,
AND SOME OTHER SMALL AMOUNT OF A ROOT LIKE MALANGA.
THEY ALSO ATE ALL THE RAW EGGS THEY COULD
FIND FROM THE HENS.
WE NEVER EVER HAD A SICK DOG OR ONE THAT DIED FROM BAD STUFF.
MY MOM HAD STANDARD POODLE AND A BLACK COCKER SPANIEL, THEY DIED OF OLD AGE. I WILL NEVER AGAIN GIVE ANY DOG
BOUGHT FOOD OR KIBBLE OR CANNED FOOD. MY VERY OLD CHIHUAHUA SPRINKLES
EATS CHICKEN THIGHS I
BAKE OR SOMETIMES I MAKE LIKE A STEW ADDING CARROTS, SWEET POTATOES &
REGULAR POTATOES.
I DON'T KNOW HOW OLD HE IS HE IS GETTING SENILE & ALSO SOMETIMES HE COUGHS UP & THROWS UP SOME. I WILL MAKE HIM THE HONEY & BUTTER BECAUSE HE DOES NOT WANT TO EAT
UNTIL VERY LATE IN THE PM. OH I FORGOT, I MAKE HIM A GROUND BEEF PATTY SOMETIMES.
NO DOG FOOD EVER AGAIN!
@@irenegoicoechea-burton3607so sorry you had to leave your home in Cuba. . That is truly awful what happened to you guys! 😢
This is great advice
They are also getting over vaxed.
@@snoopybluejeans yes, they are! Just like humans!
I cook for my dogs basically the same foods as this but I use a Crock Pot and cook everything together, just layer in the Crock Pot. Very easy .
Don't you just love folks that care so much to take the time to share with other pet lovers how to give them healthier food to extend their lives?!? Thank you! God Bless you! Just wonderful! 😊🎉❤
The whole family could sit down on the floor and eat with the dog 😂😂. It all looks that good ❤
lol
I could eat my pups food as well, though I'm vegan😍
True , if I can’t eat it neither should my dog . We eat together almost every meal
I will tell you my husband made the mistake of thinking the homemade dog food was his lunch. He was telling me about it and I died laughing when I explained it was dog food. He said no wonder it taste like sh@t.
😂😂😂 true
Wow, I’m so happy seeing everyone’s comments ! I had no idea so many people made their dogs food. I’ve been doing it 20 plus years, I used to try and get people to try it for their dog but they looked at me like I was nuts. I make a batch for the week, only takes an hour to debone the cooked chix with sweet potatoes and kale. I crush egg shells in a grinder and add other vitamins/coconut oil.
i know it was so surprising how many comments this video is getting I love the interaction and suggestions
Can u share which vitamins?
@@Daughter_of_the_King316 sure, I use one vitamin E 400 IU n one fish oil 1000 mg with a powder dog multi vitamin, once a day, I also give her a small can of sardines or fish once a day also. My dog weighs 75 lbs, do your research and see what works for your pet but whatever you do it’s always going to be better than that poison they sell in a bag or can.
I also cook for my dogs but have only gotten really serious about it the last couple of years! I make something different every week. After 20 years have you noticed a difference in the health of your dogs/ how long they live? My boy looks great and is healthy but fascinating how many vets disagree with cooking food! (Not my current one thankfully)
@@reginaray8874 I’ll tell you that I’ve noticed that my dog’s breath doesn’t stink like my son’s dogs who only eat dry food . Her coat is better too. As far as longevity, I feel no matter how long or short their life was/is or will be , feeding real food is keeping her healthier and happier and if a vet doesn’t agree with your feeding practices, too bad for them, it’s about money for them first, if a vet was putting an animal’s health first, getting repeated vaccinations yearly would never happen. That also causes disease within the animals body. Did you know they get the same amount to a St. Bernard as they do a small dog when it comes to rabies and vaccination shots ! I used to see a homeopathic vet , she moved out of state, when my dog got the rabies shot it would make her aggressive for a few days after, I told her about it and she found a rabies vaccine that had no additives or something else I can’t remember, when she used that one 3 years later my dog had no reaction to it at all, she lived into her 15 th year so she had at least 4 of those rabies shots with no side affects after. These conventional vets of today are trained just like the drs of us are, push pills to keep you coming back, never getting off that wheel of a level of sick that won’t kill you , but keep you so unbalanced you just keep going back to try and fix a problem they created, all in the name of Money . Unfortunately it’s that simple but people can’t/won’t see it. Make your food your medicine and your medicine your food, holds true for animals and people. We need to do our own research and feel what’s right for our situations.
What this gentleman has been cooking up will keep people living longer as well, not just dogs... We are too addicted to processed foods.
It’s so great to see so many people are taking the diet/health/nutrition of their animal friends seriously. Pets are a part of your family and deserve wholesome food that will hopefully ensure they’ll be around for many many years 🐶❤️🐈
I never heard of people making their own dog food before I got a dog a few months ago. He had itching and dandruff, and I knew I did NOT want him on drugs to clear the symptoms and not the problem. So I started querying about quality kibbles and switched his food for better grades several times... Then TH-cam videos on the topic started popping up. One thing led to another, and I got educated fast on nutrition for dogs. Mine has been completely off kibble for several weeks, now.
The sad thing is so many veterinarians push kibble and never educate the public on the benefits of human grade foods prepared at home. We believed their advice because it's all we knew. Now with social media and access to internet on our phones, info is just a click away. I feel for those who never adjusted or accepted technology, and feed their fur babies garbage like "Old Roy". They just don't know any better because they have not been exposed to the truth about kibble.😢
I just got my first dog(as an adult) and I want to make sure she’s taken well care of. She came from a shelter so she deserves the best, so this is going to be amazing! Thank you!
you’re doing amazing things already!
Enjoy! There's just nothing better than the bond you'll build. I've wouldn't have missed the experience for the world. Love to Rocky, Sammy-girl, Bob, Geeves, and my newest pals, Teddy and Kevin!.
Never a grape, raisin, cherry, onion, xylitol, chocolate, pineapple, goat cheese...
I had a dog to increase his life span once he was 10 I began feeding him homemade dog food he lived for 21 years... A miniature poodle named Brock
Wow! I thought my 17 yr old was old! Great job!
Thanks! Will do. I just got my miniature poodle. She's 13 weeks old.
What a cute name! Brock….
Wow ❤ what was your recipe if you don’t mind sharing?
I wondered about that. My GSD girl is 7
Dear Sir, thank you for putting this on line here. I have a 17 yr old Rat Terr that has Cushing Disease, vet told me no more carbs, all natural all the way, and no rice too. That was 4 yrs ago and the regular wanted to put my dog down, he is 17 now and doing very well. I understand Eddie special, they say they never seen a dog with Cushings live to 17 yrs old, I am thrilled to have my sweet boy for abit more time. Thank you again for helping our neighbors, how easy it is to make good clean nutritious food for our dogs and dont forget our kittys to. God Bless 👵
I'm so happy I found this video. I've been kicking around this idea for a while
UPDATED - Been making my two Aussie's food for 3 years now - 100% trial and error. Both apparently have sensitive stomachs as they routinely regurgitated kibble. Did not run my mixture by any vet and, frankly don't care what people say who make their money from selling pet stuff. All I know is my dogs are healthy, happy, and finish their food in less than 2 min every time. I also discovered (trial and error) a blend that has completely eliminated their scratching (they were on Apoquel for it). For protein, I use boneless chicken breasts (shreds much easier but thighs are okay too, but messier and you are paying for the bones), raw or boiled eggs. Leaving the shells in occasionally provides a great source of calcium provided you puree the food. Research it. Egg shells are good calcium for humans too. I boil the chicken, let it cool then place in gallon bags. When I add to their food, I use about 1.5 cups in a medium-sized bowl, shredding it by hand. Remember, I'm combining in one bowl to feed two 45 lb dogs, so adjust accordingly. Vegetable matter is a combination of either 7 lbs sliced carrots OR 7 lbs sliced sweet potatoes combined with 2 Lbs of either green peas or green beans, all of which I boil then puree with an immersion blender. It is then stored in a gallon pitcher. HELPFUL HINT: When either the chicken or vegetables have boiled for 5-10 min, shut off the heat, leaving the pot where it is, then place a lid over it. After a few hours, it will be cooked to perfection with no boil-overs or scorching. I either save half a gallon of the broth from boiling the chicken which I dilute with water, storing it in a 1 gallon pitcher in the fridge OR (much more convenient) buy the store brand cartons of beef or chicken broth at Walmart. The store bought broth takes up much less space in the fridge I use about 1 cup raw oatmeal (non-instant). Raw is okay if you puree the finished mixture. Most animals aren't allergic to oatmeal. My dogs are fed twice daily. They share 50/50 from the following mixture: Start with the oatmeal in the bottom of the bowl followed by the raw or boiled eggs. Then, the chicken, plus 1.5 large serving spoons of the pureed vegetable matter. I purchase Omega 3 oil from Amazon in the 32 oz pump bottle, sourced from wild-caught North Atlantic sardines, and use 2 squirts. One bottle lasts me 3 months. I then add 1 to 1.5 cups of broth and puree that combination with an immersion blender. You can serve cold or warm in the microwave for about 2 min. I split the mixture between the two dogs. They get this twice/day. They lick their bowls clean then lick each other's bowl. Tons of energy and have thick, shiny coats with zero scratching and healthy stools. Non-scientific but it works for them. Vet says they are at ideal weight and look fantastic.
Yes!
That’s a lot of unnecessary carbs to give to your dog.
@@Caareenkm6726 Ideal? No. That was never my objective. Protein is, by far, the most expensive ingredient of any pet food. If I could afford to feed two adult Aussies on a diet of raw beef liver and red meat, I would. Most can't afford to do that. As a side note: liver is messy and smells bad. My objective was to come up with something healthier than kibble that they will eat, and I've done so. Most kibble alleges it is 18-30% protein by weight. What I make is 50% protein by weight. Farmer's Dog is 50% protein by weight. From their website: "...green (and orange) vegetables provide important health benefits to dogs. They can provide your dog with an array of key vitamins and minerals, including phytonutrients; AND, "Fresh legumes like chickpeas, and vegetables like sweet potatoes provide vitamins and minerals as well as additional fiber, a key component of a dog’s diet-it helps maintain digestive health and a healthy gut, helps to regulate blood sugar levels, and leaves your dog feeling full for longer. From the American Kennel Club: "Eggs are a great source of nutrition for your dog. They are high in protein, fatty acids, and vitamins that help support your dog inside and out"; AND, "This heart-healthy breakfast [oatmeal] is rich in soluble fiber, vitamins, and minerals such as iron, zinc, and B vitamins that help support your dog's coat and skin. The high fiber content helps promote digestion and weight management." I now add three squirts of Amino 3 fatty acid oil sourced from wild caught North Atlantic sardines. My dogs are healthy, vibrant, have beautiful coats, have no 'itch problems', zero gastrointestinal issues, and they lick their stainless bowls clean until they shine like a new penny each and every feeding. If you can afford the ideal diet, go for it. Most can't and if that is the only alternative left to pet owners, a lot of dogs will be UNNECESSARILY relegated to a lifetime diet of kibble.
Your wife’s disapproving face is gold, I know she’s thinking you better clean up this kitchen because I’m not doing it 🤣🤣 and amazing recipe ! This was a big help I am in the process of switching my 1 1/2 year old pup to a raw diet :)
Please don't do that without researching it first
Thank you! Love having the recipe. And appreciate your candor on your corrections. Makes you believable.
I’m going to try it your way!! Invaluable tutorial! Thank you!
I made this on my own after one of my daycare dogs came with the farmers dog. If you don’t have an instapot, cook everything in one pot on the stove, remove the main ingredients and cook the rice in the water …YUMMY!!!! It’s actually less work than using the instapot 🤫🤫
I was just saying Im going to make this in my stock pot. Then the only mess I'll have is my cutting board and knife. Basically, I can turn it on and let it simmer away. Then I thought, I'll use the kitchenaid to mix it all together lol
@@tristamyers1910 that is perfect! My dog loves it, waits near the stove to sample it 😋
Did you cook all the meat, potatoes, carrots etc together all at once? And still for 25 minutes? I would love to try this recipe, but don’t have all the time shown in this video to cook each thing separately. Doing it all at once together would be so much easier. Even cooking the heavy items and adding the greens at the end would be easier.
@@terrihelman6486 I cooked everything together and it does take less than a half hour. I put everything in the food processor, but the sweet potatoes 🍠 they can be mashed with a fork.
Quick and simple and my dog LOVES it ❤️
samesies
I've been doing this for months ! You're ABSOLUTELY right! I do EVERYTHING for my dog in the Instant pot! I cook turmeric and ginger into the food!
Do you have a dog biscuit recipe ?
you need a dash of black pepper to 'activate' the turmeric.
Super amazing video. I love how you just lay it out there. It’s very simple, easy understand and the main thing you have a healthy pooch.
I separate our dogs food into 4 cups in ziplog bags and freeze them. Every night we put a new bag in the fridge, come morning time the food is thawed and ready to be served. 2 cups in the AM with 1 organic egg, and 2 cups at 5pm with apple slices. One thing we add to the instapot when cooking his food are grinded up egg shells, we also add rosemary to his food. We've always had American Bulldogs, our last one was a beast (in a good way)😂 he died a few years ago, but lived to be 15yo. I never thought we would ever get another dog (too sad to even think about it) but we missed having a dog so we just got another AB, he is a few months old. We cook the same recipe to our new member like we did to our dog that passed away, and he is loving it.
I make about six gallons of food each week for two 90 plus pound
Standard bull dogs...there's never any leftovers! Mostly veggie, oat, and pasta or rice in a turkey stock.
@@robinb8573, pasta? You're giving your dogs pasta? Didn't know that pasta is good for dogs?
As a retired chef, dog lover and frustrated pet food buyer it doesn't matter to me how much time it takes me in the kitchen to make wonderful meals for my beagle (Cooper). Between the recipe here and all the lovely advice in this comment section you have made both of our lives so much better in the food department -- for Cooper that's the only department that matters. Thank you all so much.
Apparently I have to finally break down and buy an Instapot if for nothing else but its size. Next you're going to make me buy an airfryer (which is a glorified toaster oven btw).😉
thank you very much - the insta pot is so worth it you will love it!
Okay but my air fryer and instant pot are my most used appliances. We hardly use the oven anymore unless baking or bulk meals. I used tot hink the airfryer was just a toaster oven but the results are so much better in my air fryer than my old toaster oven. And my instant pot is amazing, it's a pressure cooker that you can also use as a crock pot or a stove top. I love making birria and chicken adobo in it!
@@crystalyensko2645I have a feeling traditional kitchens are going to disappear in the next few decades anyway. We don't need kitchens the way we used to at all; if I lived alone I'd probably only need a gas burner and a toaster oven/air fryer. However my 75y/o mom feels she can't live without a lot of the old things.
i personally don’t use my air fryer (was gifted to us) due to the limited counter space, and I prefer my crockpot over the instapot -there’s some crockpots you can get that can so multiple things without taking stuff out like that one i have (gifted to us) sautées, yogurts, stews, etc. i love being able to sear my meats and add everything else in after in one pot that I can put in the dishwasher
I'm devastated to report that my beautiful boy has just been diagnosed with lymphoma. On prednisone he's been given another month. It came out of nowhere; last week he was fine. His bloodwork was perfect. In lieu of the appliances I will be giving him his favorite -- roast chicken -- whenever I can get him to eat. Hold your loved ones tight everyone.
My sweet pup passed away in 2008 but before that I started making his food myself. There are just too many stories about poor quality dog foods and junky ingredients. My dog loved homemade and I felt so much better about knowing I was giving him healthy food. So glad to see that there are lots of recipes on the internet now (not so many back then) and that people are treating their dogs like the member of the family that they are.
Thanks your effort IS !!! BEAUTIFUL
Thank you for this! The “mess” seems definitely worth being able to feed your dog such super healthy food that is made with love. ❤ You’ve inspired me to make my own this week. Cannot wait to try it! Thanks 😃🐶😺
I use a bus bin to mix it all, eliminating all the dirty bowls. If you put turmeric, adding a tiny bit of black pepper, allowing your dog to absorb it better. And adding lots of broccoli is beneficial as well. My dogs love it. Great video!!
The broccoli isn't gasy for your pooch? When my puppers have broccoli ohhhh my the neighborhood knows it lol😂
Yes, I've also read that black pepper helps the absorption of the tumeric.
And we add kale - they love it.
Little-known fact...there is no such thing as an Instapot! It is an Instant Pot. The brand name is Instant Pot. I swear, it is true. Go look at your machine. It absolutely BLEW MY MIND.
also a bit of coconut oil or quality olive oil over the food right before serving
To cut costs, I buy a whole chicken, boil it until fully cooked, let it cool a bit and pull all the meat off. I check it with my hands to make sure all the bones are gone. Also add a package of sliced beef. I also slice up canned beets, green beans, canned carrots, frozen broccoli and spinach, add turmeric and some ginger, brown rice, mix it together and put it into Rubbermaid bowls of equal size I get at the Dollar store. Also, just before feeding, add some nutritional yeast. It's nutritious for them.
Another viewer also said skip the peas. They are right. Peas have been controversial in dog food, and not in a good way.
5 gallon bucket idea is great. Loved how the good girl was supervising your process.
Just came across your Chanel. In October 2023 I welcomed a new dog in my home and I'm learning on foods he can and can't have, thanks for sharing.
So glad to see you put turmeric in! Actually you can add that, pineapple and honey to her bowl when you serve her. Turmeric, honey and pineapple are all anti inflammatories. So is olive oil. Honey doubles as an antibiotic and a host of other things! Good on ya, keep up the good work!!
Thank you for the info. God Bless you.
I give my little dog honey and butter for her reverse cough. It’s almost stopped it completely. My dogs suffer from allergies and for some reason this year has been really bad. I put an teaspoon of honey and a small about of butter on a plate. She loves it. The butter is probably less than 1/4 teaspoon. It’s amazing. I do buy local honey specifically because this is allergy related but when it started I was just using grocery store honey and it worked. I only give her this once a week now or everyday if she seems congested and reverse sneezing.
I've been putting tumeric in my dogs food for about 10 yrs now for their arthritis. Works good.
Pineapple is only anti-inflammatory if eaten alone on an empty stomach. Otherwise, its enzyme helps with digestion. Either way, it’s beneficial. (I’m a Nutritionist.)😊Love my fur babies. Can’t wait to try your recipe! Thanks for sharing!❤️🐾
I also add garlic to my babies food!
I am not positive, and correct me if I am wrong...but I do not think it takes 25 minutes to cook the vegetables in the IP. I think even the sweet potatoes and carrots would cook very throughly in around ten minute in the IP. That will really cut down on the prep time. I really appreciate this informative video!!! Looks wonderful. What a blessed pup.
Veggies don’t need 25.
Thank you. I've been wanting to make my dogs food so she can eat as healthy as me. I didn't know where to start- but you've motivated me.
It looks good and heathy !!! You take very good care of your pup. You’re such a great Dad!!! God bless
You could potentially portion it in ziplocs or large cupcake liners and freeze the mix, take it out the night before to thaw. This would not keep for 2 weeks fresh in the fridge, let alone 3 or 4.
I like this guy! Very down to earth and natural, no pretense.
Am going to try this for my Huskies
Love the idea of doing this and using the ziplock bags and put them in daily servings. I have used ground meat that way in the past for humans who want taco 🌮 Tuesday’s and they can heat it and eat it. They also store flat in the freezer as well.
I actually do this already for my husky (11 years old) though I use the Just Food for Dogs recipe which in my case is Turkey and macaroni. I do include a nutrient powder they sell that I add once everything has cooked and cooled along with fish oil (per cooking instructions). I keep 4 or so in the fridge and the rest i put in freezer zip locks and store in the freezer. I pull out 2 or so 2 nights before I plan to use them to give them plenty of time to thaw. its saved me money on both vet bills to keep a healthy husky and food. she's keeping up with puppies. her coat is radiant and stomach issues since I've switched to home prepped meals have completely gone way. good luck
How do you know what potion to feed fresh food? I’ve been feeding my girls kibble for ten years and want to change them over to fresh.
I’m also going to try this for my husky Ruby. Mostly I have used venison but other meats when not available.
@@reneekoonce6532 just food for dogs goes off weight. In my case it's 13.5 oz of food per feeding. They have charts on the website that break it down into further detail.
I made my own dog food for 17 years and wanted to share with you my joy at your video! I will use your recipe if I get another one. FYI- White rice is better for dogs because they have a short intestinal track and bad for humans.Brown rice is better for long intestinal tracts.
According to Dr. Gundry, brown rice isn’t better for people either because the toxic lectins are in the brown outer part. It also is more likely to hold on to the herbicides and pesticides. Brown rice tested high for a poison (can’t remember at the moment what it is🙄)
Thank you for this information, it is new to me. I will do some research. Always welcoming Good health practices.
@@cynthiawalker850 arsenic was the word I couldn’t think of this morning! 🙄
I love how you interact with your dog
Wow!!! Same reasons I wanna cook my dog his food! Perfect timing, thank you!
Tippy toes smells you cooking her food!! I also cook my dogs food and they know it’s theirs and they always hang around the kitchen when I’m cooking it. They don’t when I’m cooking our food just theirs! So smart!!!
Hilarious!
Yes. Same here. Mine will start offering behaviors we are working on in training because she knows I can't ignore them and it ends up up being a training session run by her. She pretty much offers what she wants to and gets rewarded for it. Love all these dog lovers in the comments.
I also add beans (little cinnamon to avoid gas) and eggs for more protein. I use a food processor on the veggies and mix with the meat, then cook it like meatloaf in large glass trays. I make a month to 6 weeks worth and freeze. Thanks for sharing your recipe.
Great tip!
careful with eggs - they feed pathogen (Book - Cleanse to Heal)
Yes . . . I've been making the 'meatloaf' form of dog food for years now. I cook a fresh veg asstmt in chkn broth - then cook some quinoa in the veggie/chkn broth . . . blend the cooled veg and quinoa and mix with ground chicken. Bake in loaf pans . . then when cooled and firm - slice into individual ziploc (snak size) bags and freeze. Each day I feed her the thawed one and put a frozen slice into the fridge to thaw for the next day. Before serving I add a crushed cosequin and salmon oil and top with a couple lil chunks of freeze-dried liver and a few drops of CDB oil
@@tthom2459the addition of the CBD is genius. ❤
Cinnamon! Great idea so many health benefits! Plus no gas!! I've got a beagle who can really smell up a room
I just came across your video and loved watching what you've learned! I have been making my dogs' food (I have to make twice as much as you do) for over a year now and never thought of an Instant Pot (or the 5-gallon bucket idea). Thank you for two great suggestions! You're right, the sheer volume of food is daunting, but the process is simple. My dogs love their food, they're at a healthy weight per their vet, and are happy girls. Keep up the good work! You clearly love your pup!!
Thank you for sharing. I always wondered what was in the farmers dog I hope they don’t get upset that you’re sharing it with everyone. Lol but not everyone has enough time to make it either so I’m sure they’ll still order from the farmers dog ha ha ha! You have a blessed day and happy new year!🎉🥰
For my (almost) 17 year old dog this recipie works great. Here are changes I made for my senior doggy! I use half chicken and half turkey and add in 2-3 egg yolks. I add on top her meds and also some suplements. I add on minnows and salmon oil for omega 3, and I also top it off with some sea kelp, “Bernie’s perfect poop”, and local bee pollen. (For allergies) than I mix it all together with a few tablespoons of goats milk for rehydration. Every now and than I will throw on a treat and some frozen blueberries. ❤ this just makes the meal more balenced for my doggy!
nice! thanks for the tips - I will give he egg yolks all time because I eat 4 eggs but only one yolk so I give the 3 to her :)
@@TheBuckStop the yolks are the most nutrious part of egg

I have 2 dogs. A 45# 6 month old Goldendoodle and a 12 year old 20lb terrier mix. I have been making their food for 4 months. It is a lot of work but worth it because they love it. I have a small instant pot that I use only to cook the rice and kidney beans at the same time. I generally use 2 Costco chickens beef or chicken liver and a couple pounds of whatever beef is on sale. The veggies, carrots, sweet potatoes, broccoli, zucchini, greens pumpkin, flax seed all go in the blender. I use 2 large pots on my induction stovetop. Boil the carrots and sweet potato for about 10 minutes then add the rest of the veggies and let it simmer for another 10 minutes. I then add the cooked meat and chicken that has also gone through the blender. Constantly stirring throughout the process. I then bag it in ziplocks, about 2 lbs per bag. Freeze the bags flat. Thaw a bag every morning in water. Takes most of a day. Good thing I’m retired.
Dude! I love your honesty and ideas. This was a great instructional video. Keep doing you!!
Awe, what a great dog daddy. Thanks for sharing❤❤❤❤
That’s wonderful that you are making food for Sable. I used to cook my Lab’s food and then switched to raw. She’s a chocolate, too. It was so much faster and no cooking. You are so right that this is better for them. Since my girl started raw food she is no longer on expensive and potentially harmful allergy medications from the vet. Her allergies are 95% reduced. Her fur has filled in where she scratched it off, is shiny, and the inflammation is gone. Kudos to you for making Sable’s food and sharing your recipe and method with others. Sable is beautiful!
I use ground turkey, organ meat, spinach, broccoli, and red peppers. As well as eggs, crushed egg shells, ginger, kelp powder, and stinging nettle leaf. If you can, pick two organ meats like liver, spleen, testes, tripe, etc. Don’t use heart, tongue or any muscle organ meat. They don’t count as organ. Also, I add Carlson’s Cod Liver oil and some Hemp Seed oil.
My vet does not approve. Why? She is so healthy now. She is up to her optimum weight. She rarely gets ear infections and is such a healthier looking dog. The inflammation on her face and around her eyes is gone. I was always going in for ear medications for her, along with ear swabs. Again, why? I heard it myself from a vet, because allergies are great money maker for them. My job is to keep my dog happy and healthy. Healthy food is expensive, but so are appts, tests, and potentially harmful medications like Apoquel and Cytopoint.
Best wishes to you and Sable. She’s one lucky girl! 🐕
💖 ~ My college biology professor gave my class 4 important food diet tips:
1. Eat flax seeds.
2. Only eat organic bananas🍌 cuz US chem co. sells illegal to use here DDT to countries that grow bananas = many DDT sprayings during growing season, then more DDT sprayings (WET!!! Saw hidden undercover cam video in class), then more DDT sprayings (WET!!!) ON the dock just before forklift loading branches of bananas onto a ship to bring 'em to us in the USA ... . He said IF you don't buy organic, then wash bananas well-carefully peel without touching fruit-wash hands well with soap & water-eat fruit-wash hands with soap & water well. Prof said those heavy & repeated doses of DDT will permeate to your skin & into your pores just from touching banana skins. He said DDT helps kill tarantulas ... .
3. Never eat pork & don't feed it to your pets = parasites + ALL of the toxic chemicals the pigs eat & drink that's in their food & that their injected with B4 killed = is NEVER excreted via pigs' pores cuz pigs don't have sweat glands to E-VON sweat + prof said bacon is WORST part of pig to eat cuz bacon is mostly fat & all of the toxic chemicals in the entire lifetime of the pig is BIOACCUMULATED IN THE PIG MEAT & SEVERELY CONCENTRATED IN THE PIG'S FAT!!!
4. NEVER EAT, NOR FEED PETS LIVER!!! Prof said the LIVER of humans & animals is the organ that BIOACCUMULATES ALL OF THE TOXIC CHEMICALS ingested, breathed, touched, soil & air & living environment pollution chemicals, & medicines/injections subjected to = LIVER = TOXIC TO EAT. READ FOOD & TREAT INGREDIENTS & AVOID, like the plague it is - CARCINOGENIC = CAUSES CANCER +++++++!!!!!!!
5. 🎯 When I told my puppy's vet in 1994 that I'd like advise on how to make healthy treats for him, he recommended a book that he was raising his own two Old English Shepherds on & that it also had recipes in it.
6. 💝 💔 My adorable Lucky, a 4-week-old Humane Society abandoned puppykins, was a mix of Old English, plus Bearded Collie & Irish Wolfhound & lived for 16 years AFTER being poisoned severely by my alcoholic neighbor's toxic & (he stole it from his job) illegal-to-use-in-my-state weed killer that the wind blew onto my yard & organic garden - killed everthing & gave my dog seizures + blood-red eyes & inner ears + partly blinded him; & made me sick & elevated my liver enzymes ... cuz the chemicals concentrated in my liver ... .)
⭐ 7. Vet wanted to euthanize my Lucky. NO WAY!!! I successfully nursed my flips-in-mid-air-Frisby catcher/squeekie-teasing scamp back to health using recipes in "Dr. Pitcairn's Complete Health for Dogs and Cats" - the book my puppy's vet recommended on our 1st visit in 1994 was totally ear-marked & notes in margins & stars & blue-black-red ink pens used to underline & yellow-pink-blue-green highlighters used & bookmarkers galore ... after 10 years of daily use, that book's binding was totally destroyed ... I carefully used that disheveled book for six more years, until my "angel puppy Lucky Wucky" died at age 16. Miss him.💔
😎 💘 8. Best days of my life were spent going on wooded hikes & metal hunting adventures & playing for six hours in the yard with all of his toys & going to lakes & rivers for swims. He protected me against assault from three different predatory men, & he saved his pet-sitter's baby's life. I saved him from a pit bull attack by draping my body over him in the middle of the street & hitting the loose pit bull with my key chain & screaming for help - took two tries for the owner to drag his mad dog to his kennel ... when we we safe, I relaxed my tented body from my Lucky - he sat up, turned around to look me in my eyes, then touched his lips to mine ... he actually gave me a "Thank You" kiss!!!💋 Lucky was the BEST dog I ever had.💯

@@barbarakay6614 Very interesting
My brother always cooked for his dogs. He would do it for a couple of weeks for 2 dogs. They were always healthy. One passed away at 14 one is 15 and still going. I fed my dog regular dog food all the years I had her and she wound up getting very sick very sick and I had to put her down in 2019 and she was in pain. I vowed if I ever had a dog again, I would be cooking for it.
Lol, love this guy. And the 5-gal pail. drill stir, and hosing down the pail-great ideas!
Just as long as the buckets are food grade safe!
I was thinking why not buy a professional restaurant pot from restaurant depot. Then it will be food-grade metal. And, if would probably hold all the ingredients to cook it in one pot, and could still use a drill to mix in the metal pot.
Thank you! I had a similar recipe for my elderly dog that passed away…we have another pup and I plan to make it for him 🙏🏼💕thank you
First, just an FYI--sorry that your first order came in a broken box but that is do to the shipping company and not necessarily the Farmer's Dog. And secondly, thank you so much for providing recipes for homemade dog food. I have family that work in the pet food industry. They won't feed their dogs ANY of the commercial dog foods, not even ones that their company manufactures. Back in the day (prior to WWII) everyone made their own dog food because readymade dog food wasn't readily available. We're planning on adopting a large breed dog in the near future and because they are coming from a shelter/rescue, I want everything in this dog's life to be the best when he/she comes to live with us including their food.
❤🐾 That’s wonderful. Thank you for your love and compassion.
Thoroughly entertaining. Had me laughing out loud when you realize there's too much food for the size of the bowls. This was a labor of love and your dog is lucky to have you as her human. I'm going to make this food for my boy.
I do a similar recipe but your idea of doing a 2 weeks is awesome. My dogs love their food as well. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for sharing! Love the idea of cooking for my fur-baby. She's been having some stomach issues and the vet suggested plain rice and chicken. After three weeks easing her back to the kibble, she is having gassy issues again. Found your video and I'm super excited to try this for her. Thank you for caring for your baby and sharing ❤❤
We make our own food using the Farmers Dog recipes as well. I have never seen our pups so excited to eat. My husband and I often joke that our pups eat healthier than we do.
agreed we say the same thing
We started doing this when our dog turned 12 or so. His health improved dramatically and he lived till almost 17. It really made a difference on his energy and vitality
tha is amazing! good job
I totally love my insta pot
What were you feeding him before? X
Thank you! This helps tremendously!
Thank you. I enjoyed the video and your honesty🙂 God bless 🙏🏼
0:05 I love this face. She’s so precious. It’s so hard watching our babies age and slow down like this. But we only love them that much more. She’s a lucky girl to have such loving human parents. ❤️
I made this recipe tonight for my fur babies! They loved it. Even my girl that is almost 10 and is extremely picky!
fantastic! we are so happy to hear this
LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!!! You have one lucky dog and you are a great guy
As I am researching for my first puppy I am so glad I came across this video! Will definitely give it a try as I hate the thought if feeding a kibble diet
I saw this video and started cooking for both our dogs, corgi/Australian shepherd mix and a white Pom. Thank you so much. Our mix has never been too crazy about eating. He could take or leave it and is 13 yrs old. Had him since 10weeks. I switched your recipe with cauli, broc, and carrots frozen and riced cauliflower instead of rice. I also have added some black beans every other batch. All the kibble is still sitting in our pantry. I cook every 12 days. Will never go back to kibble
I used to make my own dog food and supplemented it with dry kibble in case there was something I missed. I used to source whatever I could get from a local abattoir which would be beef heart, bones or offal. In addition I used whatever vegetables was in season and first cooked the bones to make a broth and then added the broth into a stew containing vegetables and other meat sources. You can also cook chicken feet in either the instapot or a slow-cooker and strain that broth that can be frozen and added to the dog food later.
geat job thank you for suggestions
Cook the chicken feet in the instant pot long enough to soften the bones and give it to the dog bones and all.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge on home feeding a beloved canine.
Love it!!! Thank you our dogs will live longer healthier lives eating good fresh food.
My dad makes homemade food for his little dogs and my sister’s Chihuahua who had hair loss for years, is now growing beautiful shiny hair in patches. The recipe he makes is : cooked chicken breast or tenders/ thighs boiled in water. Cooked carrots, sweet potatoes and green beans in water. White rice (easier on the dogs kidneys than brown rice). You can also add fried egg whites to the mixture. He freezes 1 cup containers and the little dogs have food for a few weeks. The dogs are healthy, happy, energetic and have beautiful hair.
Just a quick note to say Thank You!
I started making this about a month ago for my 9 year old bull mastiff. Since then, he has become more active, it looks like he’s lost weight, his coat is soft & shiny, and he eats the whole bowl of food as soon as I set it down.
Prior to making this food we were feeding him Fresh Pet, which cost us between $60-$75/week and he wasn’t always thrilled to get it.
In addition to the positive changes in his health & appearance, we are saving approximately $25-$30/week making it myself.
@JackieCooper35 aww my Bull mastiff will be 9 in November, he’s dealt with some pretty bad allergies, good to hear your pup is doing well on this diet, I’m excited to try it for my big guy!
How much rice please
@@laurafinigan7076 I make my own dog food and feed 50:50 meat mix and veggie/rice mix. She's doing very well with it. I use ground beef, liver and heart cand hicken gizards for the meat mix, sprinkle egg shell powder, nutritional yeast and ground flax meal on it.
This is amazing! I'm sure the nutrients your sweet furbaby is getting, not to mention pure enjoyment, through this homemade food far outweighs any negatives. You are awesome!
Thank you so much! I’ve been looking for a great recipe for my fur babies❤️
your so very welcome - please check out the other dog food beef stew recipe :)
I did homemade dog food for my girl before she passed...so worth it and she soooo loved it
My Vet will never push the fact that you have to use dog food from the store make your OWN. I really learned abought dog food was when our beloved Molly went into kidney failure which came on suddenly. She was put on a kidney disease diet. So we did order canned dog food for her kidney disease and I looked at the ingredients and saw I have those ingredientswere actually on hand in my kitchen. Our Vet was sure by her lab work she at most was down to day,s. I came home and I started making her dog food and she ended up living for 4 month's. Happy our youngest dog of the 2 was so close to Molly. Here we have this huge Pit Bull who was a gentle giant and our rescue chihuahua and they were inseperable. So I never feed my dog's who are family bought dog food I make my own and they are healthy, well it is just Happy now and I make her food. So bless you for sharing this video to make other's aware.
Thank you so much, I am going to start using the reciep for my Maddie a black lab, I have been feeding her fresh pet which is expensive. She does the dance for that, I'm sure she will be happy with this food!
You actually did a great job!
I’ve been cooking for my pets for years, I used to use brown rice until I learned that animals digest white rice better than brown rice, so I use Jasmine in bulk from Costco.
Having seven dogs I am constantly cooking double batches lol having it down to a science & only taking a few hours a batch, trying new things I haven’t tried the Insta pot yet.
I also don’t grind everything, I used to do every little step by hand.
Just about anything is better than kibble in my opinion so I do alternate different food recipes.
Started with Raw years ago and loved it, some of my dogs did not do well on it, and I wanted everyone to be on the same thing. One one of my dogs was diagnosed with cancer so I went to Raised Right brand dog food, a gently cooked human gray dog food which was amazing but a bit too expensive after I’ve had a life change.
Being in Rescue for a bit and accumulated a few extra pups I did do some short, cuts purchase, already cut, frozen fresh vegetables as a time saver.
I’ve been feeding my dog homemade food since I adopted her 8 years ago. She’s 14 with the energy of a puppy 😂😂 and her treats are all fruits that are safe for dogs
thank you yes i keep hearing about fruit especially blueberries
I hope you are fully aware of the KILL Gates Foundations A-peel! TOXIC AS HELL & doesn't wash off!
Which fruits
You know, Buck, there's something else you could do instead of the olive oil to avoid the burn code: use the trivet that came with the pot. That will keep the chunk meat off the bottom at least until the IP is up to pressure, and by then the action inside the IP will keep it from burning. Might be worth a try, might not.
When I say my gsd went crazy for this food, I mean it. He absolutely loves this! So easy with the instant pot and it’s very cost effective. Thank you for sharing this!!
I am so glad I saw your video. Like you said you learn something all the
time. This was alot of help. Been making my puppy food for her health, she is 8 and needed to lose weight.
Marvelous video! Thank you so much for this recipe. I've been looking for something like this. It actually does look pretty easy. I love the look on your wife's face at the end of the video!
I really appreciate you and your efforts for your lovely Sable! I don't have a dog, but if I did, I would make my dog's food. I am sending the video to my daughter who needs to see this for her pooch's food. Thanks so much!
Thanks for sharing this recipe. My three pups will be so happy to have meals that are fit for human consumption!! You’re awesome!!!!🤩
I can't tell you how much I appreciate you sharing this. I got a lab from the pound that just didn't want to eat any of the food I bought. It was costing me a fortune. He only wanted to eat people food or dog treats. Thank you so much!!
I looked into the farmers dog and it was just too cost prohibitive.
Heres my 2 cents. Just measure out the serving size into a hamburger patty between suran wrap or parchment paper and freeze in zip locks, 3 day packs should be good.
I meal prep every week for myself so this would just be another evening of prepping for my best friend. Thank you!
that's actually a good idea thank you
Where would I find the correct serving size for an 80 lb American Bully and 100 lb German Short haired black lab?
Dry food has gotten so expensive (I could make a whole month's worth for the two of them for half of what I spend on 1 bag of dry food. And I do want them to live good long lives.
this was magnificent! thank you so much for making this video! i can’t wait to get started 🙏🏼
Thank you for sharing this. I lost 2 dogs that were like my children and one was 9 years and one just a year old only 47 days apart from renal failure which the vet thinks it was from the dog food we were feeding them. He has been seeing it a lot. So I have been doing a lot of research on quality food I can make at home for when I get another fur baby. But I have to say the best part of this WHOLE video was the little part where your wife was standing there giving you "THE LOOK". 😂😂😂😂
oh so sorry for your loss - yes my wife is funny she gives me the look all the time
Haha….I noticed that look, too. She’s standing there to make sure he cleans up his mess, I think! May I ask what brand of dog food you were using?
Dog looks like it could skip lunch once in a while. Love those Labs.
You got that right!
Can’t wait to try this…thank you so much for sharing.
Mess or not, you did great thank you. I was looking for something healthy for my dog and found you.😊
I absolutely love the charm of this informataive, down to earth, very real kitchen experience as opposed to a fancy content creator with their sponsor du jour. The fact that I learned more about how to spoil my dog with homemade food is, uh.... gravy. Thank you so much for taking the extra time to do this!
The fact that you were willing and able to accomplish this task far supersedes any mess you have made. Tell mama to be happy she didn't have to do it and to give you some love. Some men wouldn't have gotten off of the couch unless it was on fire. Peace be with you Brother and Great job!!
