If you are making your dog's food at home, ensure that you add these ingredients to have a balanced and healthy Dog Food Recipe.
KEY POINTS for Homemade Dog Food Diets
In general, for dogs stick to the macronutrients of 1/3 animal protein, 1/3 healthy carbohydrate ( ie sweet potato), 1/3 veggies ( ie kale or spinach), Fat in the form of Sunflower oil/Coconut oil, Fiber in the form of Ground Flax, plus a calcium supplement ( ground eggshell).
1. Focus on the Protein with balanced amino acid profiles (lean beef, chicken, turkey and egg)
2. The Carbohydrates are not necessary, but the ‘non’ grain carbs provide additional nutrients: Brown rice (fiber, protein, Calcium, Iron, Selenium and B vitamins), Sweet Potato ( Fiber, Protein, Vitamin A,C,E, Potassium and B vitamins), Potato (Potassium, Vitamin C, B vitamins)
3. Additional ‘balanced’ fat is necessary, a good Omega 6:3 balanced, nutritious fat I prefer is sunflower oil, but can also use Coconut oil.
4. Omega 3 Fatty Acid Supplement should be added in the form of Krill, Fish or Flax oil. Krill is the most nutrient dense and beneficial of all the products., with a great EPA/DHA fatty acid profile, contains the antioxidant Astaxanthin, and being high in Vitamin D.
5. Calcium is required as bones are not being consumed. I prefer Egg Shells : dried, roasted in the oven for 10 mins, then ground with a coffee grinder. You can also use OTC calcium carbonate.
6. Vitamins: Vitamin D is needed, but is in the egg yolks and red meat as well as being in high levels in the Krill or Fish oil. Vitamin E is in the Sunflower Oil and Coconut Oil
7. Minerals: Iron is in the animal protein and spinach/kale, Zinc is in the red meat and flax seeds, Copper is in the spinach, Iodine is on the Egg Yolks, Potassium is in the Sweet Potato and Regular Potato
8. Fiber: the veggies, the brown rice and the best source in my opinion (also the healthiest) is the ground flax.

⭕️ HOW MUCH TO FEED YOUR DOG: th-cam.com/video/1QRIaIwzAcU/w-d-xo.html
Hi! I was wondering if it's okay to feed your dog a mixture of kibble and homemade (and even raw) food for cost efficiency but to still reap the benefits of the better food. My dog has chronic skin allergies - thank you for making these videos!
Hello Dr Jones,
- How much would you feed a 75 lb dog of this per day? It sounds great, but I want to make sure I don't under/over feed.
- Also, what are your thoughts on taurine? It's importance and if supplementation is needed. Thank you!!!
My dog is allergic to eggs. What about the eggshells? what can I use for calcium instead of the eggshells?
@@rose8662 put your entire recipe into one of the online dieting apps, it will tell you the calories per serving. then can look up how many calories your dog needs in a day. HTH
@@paisleydreamzzz 💡💡💡 What a great idea! Thank you! 💗
I fed my Jack Russell homemade food her entire life, and she lived to be 19 years and 9 months old. It’s so worth it to keep your dog healthy. The other - and just as important thing - is exercise. We hiked between 3 and 5 miles daily. I miss you Tally!
Do you feed raw or cooked?
Do you feed raw or cooked?
@@cindyshain3430 cooked
Sorry for your loss 19! Wow!! Would you mind sharing your recipes?
@@nicoleyap6070 As she was getting older I fed her a (hopefully) low phosphorus quality protein diet. No dry food as it is hard on kidneys.
2 c rice, cooked (I used white as is said to be lower phosphorus)
2 lb 96% lean hamburger
1 lg yam
1 lb green beans
1 can 100% pumpkin
1/2;cup finely chopped parsley or kale
12 - 14 egg whites
1 lg Apple
(May add a few cooked small carrots, a few raw blueberries)
Yam, green beans (and carrot if added to recipe) are pressure cooked and puréed. Apple is finely chopped in food processor and added raw. Mix all ingredients well. Tally’s diet was 1/4 cup recipe above + 1/4 cup science diet science diet kidney care, mixed together and fed twice daily. My new JRT pup (7mos) is getting the same, but I will be feeding her a high quality canned food instead of the kidney care (I still have several cans of the kidney care left over from Tally). Both dogs full-grown are 15 lbs. I take the big vat of the prepared recipe and measure out 1/4 cup servings on a cookie sheet and freeze. It makes about 3 weeks worth of food. It’s a chore but worth it for a healthy and well-loved dog. I thaw the next days 2 meals the night before in the fridge. The recipe must be frozen within 2 -3 days.
When I was a kid, dogs were fed table scraps and not so purchased dog food. Dogs life span was much longer than today, when most people give their pets purchased pet food. Thank you to the person who suggested this video to our Dr Jones and thank you very muchly for this video! 👍 👍
Thank You

Same when I was a kid and the dog food manufacturers used horse meat which was outlawed.
@@Seniorachica may God bless you
@@dirkmoore4224 we ate horse meat in Germany when I was a kid.
Raw and cooked table scraps together with no body chemicals and a fair amount of garlic my last few dogs lived to 18, 17 and 15.
He made another video a few months after this one. He shows how to prepare and what amounts and why. Simple and easy to understand. Thank you so much, you are an awesome and honest vet.
I wish I could find that video
Can you post it?
I searched for it and I think it's this one

So happy to find a holistic Vet online. THANK YOU!
Nut butters!!! Cocunt butter. coco butter chips. My pit loves all. All great as snacks and rewards.. . . . . Also carrots are another orange veggie I swap with sweet potatos(no white potatoes or grains for her). She loves algae tablets also for her green food; occasional spinach. Red beans are a staple and keep her nice and lean and calm and regular. Alternate with black beans. No yellow of white beans or any peas. = ). . . Those are just my own finds, mostly in total accords with your own ideas. Love your channel. Cheers.
Dr. Jones is a caring and out of a broken system of money making pharmaceutical companies. Since we found him, our 2 dogs are now healthy, thriving and we aren't spending hundreds and thousands of dollars. Thank you, Dr. Jones.
Excellent video. However I wouldn’t add sunflower oil to my dogs food, as it’s genetically modified and heavily sprayed with glyphosate. I use olive oil instead, same goes for not using sunflower oil in human food!
you can use cold-pressed sunflower oil
@@SatishYarramsetti would this be a cooking oil ? I’m interested in adding it to my dogs food but mine are on a raw food diet . Would this still be ok to add ?
If it's cold pressed, it shouldn't have had any heat applied to it.
I use tallow for my dogs (duck). I don’t eat and wouldn’t feed my any seed oils.
I'm thinking that Coconut oil is the best option. I found information that shows it also is anti microbial, anti fungal and anti bacterial. It protects against Giardia and other parasites.
Dr. Jones, I was going to order your supplement but seen that you as every dog food manufactures & organic dog food makers. put Sodium Selenite in their products. It is a derivative from LYE & is Toxic, it builds up after years of use.
Selenium is a must have both for humans as well as animals. A natural source is Selenomethionine: Selenomethionine is an amino acid that contains selenium. It exists in two forms known as enantiomers, including L-selenomethionine and D-selenomethionine. L-selenomethionine is biologically active in humans and many other life forms. I have a very sick dog & have done a lot of research for what food to feed him. I would like your input on this, for I am still researching on it.
But from my reading, sodium Selenite is not good for animals or humans.
I appreciate all the info you share with all of us, I live in North Idaho & there is NO Holistic Vets here. You have saved not only a lot of vet bills but many pets lives. Thank You, & God Bless
I make my own with Turkey, eggs, chicken, broccoli, carrots, sweet potatoes, brown rice, and peas
How long did it take for yr dog to adjust to his new selection of yr homemade food? My dog has a sensitive stomach, I made him ground turkey, carrots and peas, he enjoyed it but; had diar. for two days. Today, I made my dog brocolli and ground turkey..I will keep you posted. What great changes have you noticed in yr pet as you provide them with homemade foods?
Just EXACTLY what I was looking for!!! Thanks so much for the time and energy to do this video!
THANK YOU DR. JONES!
I made my 14 year old Maltipoo this food today and he LOVED it!! Thank You So Much For Being There For Us Pet Lovers Dr. Jones! I Appreciate You Greatly!!

@@VeterinarySecrets You are my favorite vet EVER!! Your love of animals shows in every word you speak. Thank you SO much for being the good and decent person that you are. For placing all animals well being and health over a broken system! You are the best!!
You're such a wonderful teacher! You supply so much information, yet you are so clear and it makes so much sense so that it's easy enough to assimilate. One never feels lost with a teacher like you! Thank you so much!
Thank you for this outstanding video and recipe. Since I have been using this recipe, my 18 month old miniature schnoodle has firm, healthy stools for the first time in his life. I am truly grateful for your expertise! Instead of ground turkey, I am purchasing whole turkeys when they are on sale. I roast them in the oven, take the meat off the bone, cut it in bite-size pieces, and package it in one pound increments in the freezer. I do the same thing with the sweet potatoes and spinach. I cook them ahead and have them in portioned containers in the freezer. I also make the eggshell powder in advance. This makes it very easy when I need to make a new batch of food. All I have to do is reach in the freezer, take out the portioned containers, thaw them, scramble 2 eggs, and assemble. Easy-peasy! Thanks again!
Hi what is your recipe please ?
We want the recipe
This is Dr. Jones' recipe: 1 lb meat (I use turkey and sometimes add lean ground beef. You could also use chicken.), 1 cup of cooked sweet potato (or carrots), 1 cup of steamed spinach (or kale or swiss chard or zuchini), 2 scrambled eggs, 1 tablespoon of sunflower or coconut oil, 1/2 teaspoon of ground egg shell. (As I use eggs, I save the shells until I have a dozen. I rinse the egg shells thoroughly, place them on a cookie sheet, and bake them in the oven at 200 degrees for approximately 15 - 20 minutes. After the egg shells cool, I put them in a coffee grinder/food processor/blender to make a powder. I store the powder in an airtight container and use as needed to provide a calcium supplement to the food I make.) @@tazio2

Thank you!@@33goldengirl
I have most all those ingredients. Thnx.
So basically anything that’s good for us is good for them. I’m going to start making a large batch for all of us. Thanks Doc!
Just remember to leave out onion, garlic and anything with grapes.
no avocados as well better Google it before giving
And pepper!, also when using Tuna, which my dog loves, you gotta go for the Tuna in Olive Oil only, it costs more but it's not salted nor does it have any Preservatives, which store brand Flake Tuna does, as it's usually bought in bulk once it's too old for the quality control guidelines from Honest Good Companies, I use "Trace Your Catch" Oceans Skipjack in Olive Oil, it's just lil half sized Can with Pull-off Tinfoil Covers and is made from Plain Tuna and EVO and much better. Also 75-90% Cooked White Rice that is still mildly hard but easily edible is amazing and helps pull toxins from the belly, like Dry White Rice pulls the water from your phone that's spent a night fully submerged in a puddle outside your house and 24 hours later you got your "Life" back. My dog loves hamburger and White rice and carrots, but the way I make my dogs food is I also make sure it's 50% Traditional Decent Grade Kibble so they get all the nutrients I can't provide, and sometimes I only add burger, chicken, or Tuna to her meal once a day. Same goes for a table spoon of lil chopped carrots, and a Table Spoon of Canned Peas that I salt rinse in a small handheld strainer with Hot Water. As for her Water I have four 6 litre Water Jugs that I let sit in my sunny front window or outside in summer for 48-72hours for Reverse Osmosis, to take the Bleach, Chlorine, Florida, and as much of the Liquid Plastics, Teflon, Forever Chemicals, Drugs, and probly hundreds of different things we have no clue about. And last year the Spray Planes didn't spray during the day, they would start when it was getting dark and hit organic fields and everything that ppl didn't want sprayed... I told ppl about it and all I got was "your a paranoid freak" or "Conspiracy Theorist" or "it's too hot for them during the day", well last years vegetable harvest in Southern Alberta, Canada was insane, Super Veggies 2-5× the size they use to be and potatoes and carrots that had 1 or more entire potatoe growing from 1 huge freaking starfish looking 3-8lb potatoes or huge wierd shaped carrots growing their own huge "carrot farms" on each single mega carrot.... and farm animals getting sick from eating on grazed grass that shouldn't be sprayed or touched.
I'd love to see more homemade dog food recipes from you! Your current recipes have been a huge success with over hundreds of thousands of views, and they are making a positive impact on the lives of dogs! Keep up the fantastic work! 🐾
I feed my dogs commercial dog food but top it with organ meats,spinach, broccoli and green beans. I give them ground egg shells from my chickens and ground flax seed. They are healthy and happy dogs.
@@tigertalks1567 too much phosphorus isn't good if kidney disease is present.
Another great video!! Thank you! As a dog rescuer, my job is to restore health to malnurished and starved dogs. Greens sound good, but not all are created equal. Spinach and kale have a high amount of the antinutrient- lectin. Lectin is a major cause of leaky gut. Also, very difficult on the digestive system. To reduce harmful lectins, Spinach and kale should be cooked separately with water discarded. Best to cook again in fresh water, then discard water again.
Instead, I use arugala, broccoli, asparagus, and green beans. My fav is broccoli because it is cruciferous and kills cancer cells.
Also, check out adding Moringa Oliefera....a super food used in starving nations to building health.
I want to mix dry food in with homemade. How is your dogs doing with this
Thanks Doc, exactly what I was looking for. I think we grow up thinking commercial dry kibble is a good thing but my miniature poodle had diarrhea for years, poor guy would sometimes lay in his bed and cry because his stomach hurt so bad. I kept taking him to the vet and they would give him meds and say a bland diet of white rice and lean meat. His breath was also horrible even after having his teeth cleaned. I finally realized that commercial dog foods were literally killing him. So I always make my own dog foods now. Wet and dry and they love it and I feel good knowing they’re not ingesting poison commercial dog foods. It’s more work but I love knowing I’m doing the right thing for my pets. Thanks for the info on correct nutrition
@@colbyrulesmydoggie4839 Would you mind sharing one of your recipes 😊
Wow doc - thanks so much and to all who’ve left amazing comments ❤
Thank you so much. It is so refreshing to get a video like this from a Vet who is not only out to sell you his own manufactured products.
You're welcome, happy to help
Can we talk about Tula's beautiful coat??? It shows what a great diet of real food will do. I just want to give her a little hug. :)
My dog has a chef for an owner as well as a nutritionist.
I make homemade dog food for my elderly dogs (12 & 15) every few days. Thank you for the wonderful tips, especially the egg and oil info!!
Yes! Me too. Never thought to add the eggs and oil. 🙂
@@festivus4405 Hi I make bone broth for my boys, and add it to the home-made food..
Hi! Is there a particular recipe they like? I know how to research, but these are our babies and I just can't afford to cook stuff they put their noses up at. Lolol😂😂😂
You are a gift from GOD!!!
& AMAZING!!
🙌👏🥰🙌👏🥰🙌👏🥰
My dog hates store bought dog food. So I bake chicken then boil it to create a broth. I add finely diced potato, carrot and broccoli and spoon it over a grain free holistic turkey sweet potato kibble.
The combo gives her healthy BM.....and she loves the combo.
Lately I have been canning her soft food.
I wish I had done this long ago because I never knew she had digestive issues.
I started adding a thin small sliver of ginger and 2 drops of ACV to her drinking water.
It has made such a difference.
Salmon also contains vitamin E. And it's better than any processed seed oils.
I really love and trust your advice. It makes me feel as though I have a veterinarian friend I can go to who tell me the truth about my dog's health needs. I look forward to your videos and applying the things that I learn from you. I thank you and so does my dog.
Thanks Donna
I make my dog raw keto food daily. Itʻs a bit over a pound of ground beef, an egg, half a tin of sardines, an ounce of liver (as often as possible) for the B vitamins, ground flax, ground sprouted pumpkin seeds (keeps the parasites cleaned out), a little cod liver oil (I eat actual cod livers and drain out and keep the oil for his food), 3 ounces of green leafies blended in the VitaMix plus half an eggshell, four cranberries and 10 blueberries. Supplements are half a teaspoon of chia seeds, a tablespoon of seaweed, half a teaspoon of ginger, a fourth teaspoon of pink salt. Now and then he gets a raw (frozen) bone. I fix this recipe and give half of it to him per feeding.
Be careful with the fruit Susan, too much fruit wears out the pancreas in humans. I only give my pup fruit has a treat. He loves strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, he liked mango too, he liked banana to start with but now turns his nose up at it. I only give my pup fruit has treats. If he goes to the freezer, he's asking for frozen fruit treats and he usually asks for them after his dinner. He also goes to the freezer if he'd like a frozen chicken brine ice cube.
How do you know the proportions needed for the size of your dog?
…..Let’s say for example a 20lb dog?
I love the keto dog diet concept. I think it's the most evolutionarily appropriate for dogs (and humans). I have never understood the whole carrot/rice/sweet potato etc. for dogs thing. (Other than they make for cheep fillers.) I would however, love to know why you feel inclined to put blueberries and cranberries into your keto dog food though. 🙏
I use a pressure cooker and toss in every single ingredient that you mentioned and set it for 20 minutes actual cook time 45 minutes and it's super easy!
Hi! Have you noticed any positive changes in your dog after feeding them this diet? Do you always use this same recipe or do you change it up? I really want to try this with my dog but I don't know if it's ok to keep feeding him the same recipe over and over. I have been trying to find multiple recipes like this one that are balanced and vet approved so I can feed my fur child a nice balance throughout the week. I would also be cooking everything and not feeding it to him raw.
You may want to consider using a slower method of cooking to retain more nutrients. I cook my dogs food in a crock pot or large electric roaster on the lowest settings. My dogs live well beyond 15 years. My 17 year old pomeranian agrees...😉
Another of my furbabies....at the age of 20, my shih tzu began having seizures after a fall. We put her to sleep after a child let her onto the porch where she fell off. Otherwise she was still going strong. 😪😪
@@bamasher4384 I'm so sorry about your dog.
@@bamasher4384 Have you used Dr. Jones' supplement before?
Ok, so the ingredients all get cooked? I thought the recommendation for the kale was to steam it, and extrapolated from that that it gets added to the meat, which is left raw. I was also under the impression that heat degrades the nutrients in egg yolks, so a 20 minute cooking time would pretty much destroy value of the egg.
I have fed species appropriate diet for 14 years, raw muscle meats, raw organ pieces, raw fat, raw veggie glob with pumkin with raw eggs to three large dogs. Very healthy, happy dogs. Mimic what they would eat if fending for themselves, wouldn't be processed crap out of a box or bag. Dry kibble is convenient for lazy humans.
Dr. jones, can you show us a how to make puppy food and how much to feed them?
So basically, you are making homemade commercials to push your product. Well done! I like the fact you give me a choice. I can supplement your (easy) product I can buy or I can do the work, and make my own. Thank you, Dr. Jones for showing me how to love my doggos even better. 👏 👏 👏
This guy is great. I’ll buy his products to support his work!

This looks so well informed and interesting, but I was left wondering only...about portions per kilo of the dog.
Start with 1.5% of body weight then up to ~2.5% if needed for more active dog
@@kateajurors8640 sorry I’m slow but 1.5 of what? Oz? How do I even measure that
Im wondering the same. How many cups per day for a 50 lb dog and a 20 lb puppy? I see all these youtube videos on recipes but no one mentions feeding portions.
@@kassya9024 so for example I have a dog that weighs 75 lb I need to feed her 1.5% of her body weight so what I do is I take 75 and I multiply it by 0.015. this is just changing the percent into a decimal number that we can work with doing math.
75×.015=1.125
Or 1 1/8
There are 16 oz per pound these are all going to be impound because I use the 75 lb as the base. So 1 lb and 1/8 is essentially 1 lb 2 ounces. You're starting point if you had a 75 lb dog. So you need to feed them about 1 lb and 2 oz of food a day from a homemade food or raw food diet for your starting point and go up from there.
@@carlasmith5112 can't just do cups. When it's a homemade food or a raw food diet you can't just scoop up cups. You need to weigh the animal and you need to weigh the food portions. I just broke it down for someone else on the math.
I know the difference between a 50 lb dog and a 20 lb puppy? You do realize that puppies will actually eat more during their growing phases sometimes more than even when they're an adult dog. Of course it depends on how much work or what have you that you're doing but in general most people just have pets not working animals and puppies can eat quite a bit. But it's not just what they can eat it's if you're making sure they get the nutrients that a puppy a growing puppy needs. A lot of people forget certain oils and forget certain nutrients that puppies benefit from a great deal or that allows them to develop properly without growing hip dysplasia. Mainly in larger dogs for the hip dysplasia thing but between 5 and 10 months old is the time period where you can actually have preventative measures for hip dysplasia food wise and hopefully development wise.
The biggest thing with puppies is you're probably going to feed them the higher percentage and let them eat what will fill them up. If they start to get a little chunky then pull back the food portions a bit. It's actually healthy once they're an adult dog too fast them once or twice a week. That means to not feed them one or two days out of the week especially if you're feeding them the higher percentage. This is especially beneficial to dogs like Dalmatians which have kidney problems in general. Because during those days they're not taking in any protein making sure they drink or have small amounts of a creamy gravy like food treat that you've made up. But this allows their body to kind of break from processing protein. Also of course with protein and kidney problems making sure that there is ample water and encouraging them to drink more water is always beneficial.
Great video Doc
My dog is 120 pound female Mastiff...she doesn't carry any extra weight... Her blood sugar skyrocketed on commercial dog food!
It's taken almost two years to get her health back!
Thula, precious, is ready to do a tasting 😋

I do the exact same thing with my flax. I grind it up and store it in the ultimate canine jar!
Dr. Jones, you are my go to vet! I can't bring myself to trust another one. Thank you for the love that you share for our kids!
Many blessings from California
Make sure You must fry the flax seeds first before you powder them.
Awesome, great video!! Love it!!
That's one receipt. Big wow.
I just made this for my dog. It was easy. Tonight I will feed it to her, but I will give her a smaller amount to acclimate her body to the new food. Thank u for the recipe.
Thank you! Great video. I have been cooking for my dogs for years. They love it and they are super healthy. Love and Light!
Thank you for this recipe!
Cutest dog ever!
Well done! I like to add organic greens and carrots to every mea; however ,you were right on target, but I am not surprised . 😊👍🏽✅😊
Thank you for putting the info in your description. I was writing it all down but noticed and was able to copy with more ease! You are great for keeping it simple and real. I love your transparency and holistic approach. Liked and subscribed!
Thanks for the feedback! Truly appreciate it.
Thank you DVM Jones!!!
You're the best!❤❤❤
Thanks so much for this video!
You’re most welcome!
Thanks for the recipe I was going to start my dog tank on a raw chicken diet and wanted to know what all to put in the mix thanks again Dr jones ❤️👍
Thank you for your advice
Thanks Doc 😊
First, thank you SO much for what you do. I am so grateful for your trustworthy teaching and advice. I am wondering how you might change this recipe to be fitting for CKD (I saw you respond to a comment below that this recipe might be a little high in protein)? Thank you again tons!! I hope you know how much what you do means to myself and I'm sure many others as well!!
Right now I’m feeding my 4 month old puppy chicken, shredded carrots, peas, broccoli and spinach on top of his kibble. Thank you for this informative video! I want to take my puppy off of kibble.
I love you ❣️ you look so healthy too your face is glowing ❣️❣️ i can wait feed my dog this recipe 💖💖💖
Thanks Doc!
I’m so happy you made this video! I want to take my dogs off of dry food. I have them on a minimal amount but didn’t know what vitamins they’d be missing without the dry food. I feed them lean beef, chicken breast and beef heart on top of a small amount of dry food.

Forget the dry dog food. Euthenasia chemicals have been found in kibble bc they render down everything dead to make the kibble.
Thank you Dr !!! Is there a good one for cats ? ♡♡♡♡♡♡
Yes this one:

Thank you for this video. Only thing is I wish you would have shown the finished product. Do you cook all of the foods or just some?
I love how in this video, the doctor suggested some natural ingredients to have a complete healthy balanced diet converting all nutrients needs, but he also included some supplements. I know he’s promoting his products, however, I very much appreciate the balanced information.
Yeah if they get all the nutrients from the food why are we having to give supplements (scratching my head) lol.
Thanks!💕
You're welcome 😊
Thank you dr jones for the dog recipe
Hey doc thanks for all you do. It's better to blend the flax seed every couple days since it looses a lot of the nutrients fast when ground 🌟
Good to know, thank you.
@@VeterinarySecrets Hi Dr. Jones, I am brand new to your channel and want to thank you for the information that you give us to keep our pets as healthy as possible. Please I really could use help in a home made recipe like you did for the dogs but I need mine for cats I have two kittens that are rescues there about almost 6 months old now and I really want to feed them the best food possible to prevent health problems and high vet bills. My goal is to keep them as healthy as possible to have a nice comfortable and long life and would really appreciate if you could include a healthy & natural vitamin enriched recipe for cats and kittens. Also, would like to include pre and probiotics in their diet also. Thank you for all you do and looking forward to get Started feeding my cats a healthier diet. Thank you and God bless!
I can't tell you how much I appreciate every single video and all your advice. My 8 year old dog has had recurring bouts of intestinal problems ever since adopting her 4 years ago and I want to try making a fresh balanced diet to see if that helps her. Food is medicine! Thank you again
Thanks doc Jones 🙏 ❤
Kale is your best bet
Good to know, thank you.
Thank you for all the detailed information and not holding anything back like other veterinarians do who are promoting their products. In my opinion, you are the only one who does this. It is greatly appreciated.
I’ve been making my dogs homemade dog food for the past 2 1/2 years, and their overall health has improved immensely. I use ground, ground or turkey, quinoa, frozen peas and carrots, sweet potato, pumpkin, and I put in some fish oil. I make it in my ninja foodi pressure cooker and it is super easy.
Don't cook it!! Raw food is perfectly fine. You can use salmon but it's the only food that must be cooked.
Thank you!! ✨💛💫
Thanks
Thank you so much!!! I've been researching the subject of home made dog food. This video is the most straightforward video I've seen. I took my best buddy of 13 years for her last ride to her vet on 1/6/22 due to advanced stage lymphoma. It was heartwrenching. I have another buddy that is 5 yrs old. I want to do all I can to prevent diseases that seem to be on rise in our pets. I also watched your video on natural flea and tick repellent. Also a straightforward video! I firmly believe that the conventional pet food, flea and tick treatments are a big contributor in the diseases we're seeing in our pets. Again. Thank you so much!
This kind of information will be so important as we run into ever-increasing supply chain issues and dog food shortages.
Thanks again for great info! This info will save a lot of lives
Thanks so much Dr. Jones!
Thank you! 2 questions: Do you recommend shilajit minerals for dogs? I take them in a tablet myself. 2: unsweetened banana chips ok for treats? All the dog treats I've found at the store are expensive and have lots of fillers. Thank you so much! Luna's Mom
Thank you so much for this video! I have 3 small dogs and have been making their food for over 2 years. Once a week I make it in a crockpot. I never thought to add eggs or sunflower oil. I put them on my shopping list. I need to get a coffee grinder too. Thanks again! ❤️
Oh... I forgot about the wonders of crockpots 🤩 I have recently taken my pug off dry dog food, been boiling carrots, sweet potato and peas together until tender enough to mash with a potato masher, then I take a skillet to the ground turkey, mix it all up together and then baggie it up in sandwhich bags 1 cup in each , then freeze them. I would totally love to try the hands free method next time lol 😆
@@a.lucille8877 Please explain what taking ground turkey to a "skillet" has to do with a "crockpot?"
@@strongspear1918 I said at the end that I would like to try the "hands-free" method when It comes to cooking the food. The process I do now takes up my attention sometimes from other things I want to do, but with a crockpot I could throw the ingredients in and come back later.
Great stuff
Super, thankyou. Reassuring. London
Some recipes for cats?
NO. Cats are 100% carnivore. They need a different nutrient profile to dogs
@@traceyallen8286 I think she was asking for cat food recipes.
Thank you!! I had just started making my Pom's food but I didnt know about the oil which I will add. I used Chicken, Sweet potato, Squash and Spinach. QUESTION: How do you PREPARE the ingredients (ground turkey, egg, etc) in this video?
Please refer to this playlist:

Thank you for all your videos!! I share your channel everywhere!!
Wow, what a Dr! Thank you for your honesty ans bravery, and for the great tips!
Oh yes , another question, how important is taurine for dogs? And if my dogs are allergic to poultry is boiling beef a good way to cook it with all the veggies you mentioned?
Here is what I make for my pooch. I do supplement it with a palm-size wild caught salmon steak that is poached.
Sweetie’s All Organic Custom Mix Dog Food Recipe
This recipe will feed a 65 pound dog for approximately 7-10 days
Ingredients
6-7 pounds (approx.) organic ground turkey
1/2 pound (approx.) organic chicken hearts
1/2 pound (approx.) organic chicken gizzards
1/2 pound (approx.) organic chicken livers
8 organic eggs
1 organic medium sweet potato
2 organic medium carrots
1 cup of cooked organic brown rice
The Process
Crack the eggs, separate out the eggshells and place the eggshells in a food processor along with the sweet potato, carrots, chicken livers, gizzards and hearts, grind until fine.
Coat the bottom of 2 large, deep saute or frying pans with EVOO and place equal amounts of ground turkey into the pans. Turn heat to medium and when the meat starts to brown stir in the carrot/sweet potato/heart/gizzard/liver/eggshell mixture. Stir as needed to insure all ingredients cook through.
When the ingredients are cooked on top of the mixture in each pan place 4 eggs each. Mix the eggs in and cover the pans with lids, simmer until the eggs are done. (Approx. 8 minutes).
Remove lids and stir into each pan 1/2 of the cooked brown rice.
OR
Pre-heat an oven to 375 degrees and place all mixed ingredients into 2 large baking pans coated with EVOO and bake for approximately 30 minutes. Remove pans from oven and mix in the cooked brown rice.
Let pans cool, then scoop out the mixture into freezer safe containers.
Thanks!
Thank you again! I had no idea what to do with the egg shells every one talks about. You and Tula are the best!
