Recipes

[behinderhereyes]

I have been researching dog foods for a school paper. I am absolutely descussed in some of these dog food suppliers. I have decided to start making my own dog food. Does anyone have and recipes? I found some, but I dog exactly like some of them. Some have lungs and "RASINS" I cannot believe that someone would feed their dog "RASINS."

Raisins would not be in any dog food, they are highly toxic, and organ meats are common in dog food.

I know I have a whole list sitting in my Kitchen of what not to feed a dog. Rasins and Grapes are of the top no no foods.

I just did the same thing, over a week ago, Miss Gambler became sick after eating some of my freshly baked lemon/poppyseed pound cake. One of the members here, Hayashi-Eri, came up with an extremely detailed list of toxic foods and I printed it, laminated it, and keep it in my kitchens for quick reference.

I don't know of any recipes for dogs that call for raisins as an ingredient. Could I have the names of these recipes, so I can avoid them?

A little perspective here - raisins and grapes are fairly recent additions to the list of foods not good for dogs.

This sounds like something more for humans, and lots of them; and maybe they should stay close to the bathroom.

There are a few more recipes in some thread here - Frosty Paws is one that comes to mind that several members have tested and found corgi yummy!

And I admit both the Frosty Paws and the Doggy Muffins sound good enough to eat! Maybe the muffin recipe was made b4 it was found that raisins are not good for dogs...

Maybe I can just do some substituting
