Instructions
Adjust the amount of food according to the size of your pet. Larger dogs will obviously consume more food than smaller dogs. A 50-pound dog should eat one pound of raw or cooked food every day whereas a 10-pound dog will only consume 1/5 of a pound daily.
Use 75 percent protein in your dog's diet. This includes chopped meat, raw or cooked. Organic meats are better as they do not contain pesticides but non-organic foods are fine. Fish, beef, chicken, lamb, turkey, sardines and venison are only a few of the foods that you may include in your pets daily diet. The type of meat that you feed your dog should be different daily or every other day.
Provide 25 percent vegetables in your dog's meal. Dogs may consume asparagus, broccoli, cabbage, carrots, celery, greens and pumpkin.
Vitamins and minerals may be added, including fish oils and digestive enzymes. Talk to your vet about how much your pet needs based on its body weight and health.
Give your pet plenty of fresh water, more during warmer temperatures. Pets may also eat more during the winter and less during the summer.
