How to Cook Steak for a Dog

Homemade dog food is often a healthier alternative to store-bought dog food and is made from a variety of fresh ingredients, including vegetables, grains, fruits, chicken, liver and beef. With recalls on brands of pet food that can potentially make animals ill, many pet owners are making the switch and cooking for their pets themselves. Dog owners cook and use steak in various dog food recipes to give their dogs a protein that is a tasty treat.
