  • i have no recepies, i make my own dog food most of the time as well and it is quite easy:

    cooked rice or cooked noodles ( I prefer noodles as that has more energy for my dogs )
    then you add raw beef , mince, chicken, liver, kidneys , lamb whatever kind of meat, or fish !
    and if you wish you can also add some mashed veggies and/ or herbs.

    By the way I only give noodles in the winter when they can use a bit more energy / fat.
    otherwise I mainly feed them raw and also bones and fresh tripe etc. But I guess that is not what you meant ;)

    I heard in the news that arsenic can be linked to certain types of cancer. Still if there are high concentrations of arsenic in rice, it does not makes sense to feed it to your dog everyday. http://www.wired.com/wiredscience/2012/09/arsenic-and-rice-yes-again/?utm_medium=referral&utm_source=pulsenews

    It might be a combination of food and seasonal allergies. The food/biscuits might be a slight problem but then added to the seasonal allergies, the allergies become major. Arnie has allergies and he rarely gets treats because of this and his kibble dog food is his treat. Does your dog also have a rash on his stomach area or the inner part of his rear legs? Arnie usually starts off with this and then if he is biting his feet I know the allergies are bad. He has not had this for a few years though! I would clean the area and this would help tremendously. Allergies are difficult to diagnose. The allergy season here in OH has been extended because of the crazy weather. If you have leaves on the ground that are/were wet, there could be mold, fungi, etc. on them and your dog is getting it on his paws. Jennifer

    I use the Life Abudance and alternate between Paula Newmans. My dogs love it. Their coats look great. I totally support both of those dog foods.
