One brand alone may come in 5-6 variants depending on the age of dog, health needs, nutritional requirements, etc. You so want to choose the right product; but then you get it home and your dog turns up its nose at your choice.

What you should do is have a go at making your own do food and treats while your dog sleep in their [designer dog bed](https://mindiampets.com.au/designer-dog-beds/).

They are much cheaper than bought products; you know what is in the food without having to read minute print; they won’t smell like a plate full of vomit; you can get other family members involved in making the recipes; and you can guarantee that your dog will be close by as the smells waft from your kitchen.

***We would always suggest that you consult with your [Veterinarian](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veterinarian) to make sure they are happy with your meal suggestions and that they meet your dog’s nutritional needs.***

With this recipe substitute the 25% Brown Rice with the same quantity of Quinoa (this is used in many commercially available Dry Food Kibbles). We would suggest the Red Quinoa as it has a firmer texture. Once again you could substitute some of the Vegetable content from #1 and replace with Apples, Blueberries and Butternut Squash.

We would actually suggest making a batch of beef bone broth first; using bones from your local butcher. No onions or garlic of course. Once made, strain to ensure no bone fragments
are present. Allow to cool and portion for freezing or using fresh. This is a nutrition-rich way of getting a “gravy” for the stew.

This recipe uses “No-added Salt” liquid Chicken Stock which you could buy commercially. However, with care at home, by eliminating Onions and Garlic, as well as straining the broth to remove bones and bone fragments you could make your own. Make a batch and freeze what you don’t use, so that all you have to do is reheat next time.

Slow cookers get hot and the food can break down due to the length of time cooking. Therefore, use ingredients that you would use if making a stew or casserole for yourself - **exclude Onions and Garlic of course. **

### Natural Homemade Dog Food Recipes - Handy Hints

Cooked meal portions can be frozen in airtight containers. Use within 2 months.

If you make a variety of recipes this allows you to rotate their use and make meals more interesting for your dog.

2 Buying a Family pack of Chicken Breasts usually has 8-10 Breast pieces and is a cheaper way of buying them per KG.

Either double up on a recipe or perhaps make a Batch of two different recipes, such as No. 6 and No. 9.

## Kitchen and storage kit for homemade dog food

Cooking for your dog is easier when you set up a simple kit first. Here is what helps most when you cook in batches.

- **Airtight containers:** the hints above suggest freezing cooked portions in airtight containers and using them within 2 months.
- **Labels:** write the recipe name and the date on each container, so you know what to use first.
- **A scoop or measuring cup:** serve the same amount each time, so portions stay consistent.
- **Easy-clean bowls:** stainless steel bowls are simple to wash between meals.
- **A feeding mat:** a mat under the bowl catches spills on the floor.
- **Bulk ingredients:** as noted above, a family pack of chicken breasts is a cheaper way to buy per kg, and you can double up on a recipe.

## Balanced homemade dog food: quick answers

### How do I make sure homemade dog food is balanced?

Every dog has different needs, so check with your vet that your meal plan suits your dog. Bring the recipes you plan to use to that visit, so your vet can look at the ingredients.

### How long can I keep homemade dog food?

The hints above suggest freezing cooked portions in airtight containers and using them within 2 months. Thaw one portion at a time and follow any storage notes on the recipe card.

### Can I cook homemade dog food in bulk?

Yes. Double up on one recipe or make a batch of two different recipes, such as No. 6 and No. 9. Then portion and freeze them, so you can rotate meals through the week.
