So, the editor brings a new method to teach you how to make simple, nutritious, and comprehensive homemade dog food to keep your dog healthy and safe.

First, we need to know which foods are suitable for homemade dog food and rich in nutrients required by dogs. For example, meat is a must when making dog food, it can be beef or chicken, accompanied by rice and vegetables to ensure balanced nutrition. Secondly, you can add more ingredients to supplement nutrition such as cucumber, corn, sorghum, pumpkin, carrot, cod liver oil, calcium or bone powder, eggs, and so on. These can be combined to make dog food to ensure comprehensive nutrition intake. The method is simply to cook these ingredients well, chop them finely, mix together, and add an appropriate amount of salt for seasoning.

Secondly, when making dog food yourself, there are some points to note. All ingredients must be clean, meat or bones need to be washed, cooked thoroughly, and then minced—you cannot use raw food. Vegetables also need to be washed, blanched, chopped before mixing with meat for dog feeding. This prevents parasites and ensures the food’s nutrition, which is very beneficial for dogs.
