what's up all you cool dogs and
i'm the dog nutritionist and today we
are going to be making an everyday
really healthy dog food recipe this is
not a complete recipe complete recipes
are the superfood recipes that give your
dog all the possible nourishment they
could need all in one meal but this meal
unlike the complete meal is just
designed to give your dog the day-to-day
nourishment complete meals every day i
do not recommend it's not the most
natural form of feeding overloading the
dog with every nutrient they could ever
need all in one day that is not natural
feeding to a mammal i've made a video on
why you shouldn't necessarily feed your
dog complete recipes every single day if
you want to learn more about that please
click the link at the end of this video
this is one standard recipe and you can
find standard recipes in my nutrition
guide which you can download there's a
link in the description
right let's get to it these everyday
extremely healthy recipes you can make
with ingredients
most generally you can find around the
house liver you might not have in your
house so i'd recommend buying some liver
you can then put it in the freezer
and then take individual livers out at a
time to just chuck them into the meal
they are the multivitamin of the meal
without liver this would be just a quick
recipe a leftovers recipe that you
should feed your dog maybe once or twice
a week but this meal we want to be using
around
three to four times or three to four
days per week
obviously you'd need to vary the
ingredients a bit to ensure the balance
we've got the water boiling over there
whilst that's boiling we're going to
chop up our
meat just into small chunks as always
the reason being if the chunks are too
big the dog can separate the meat from
the veg which they tend to do because
most dogs do prefer meat that's from
their carnivorous background so they are
inclined to pick out the good bits some
dogs obviously if you've got a labrador
or a golden retriever they don't
discriminate between foods they will go
in or nearly all of them if you want the
quantities get the guide the link is in
the description we're using two chicken
breasts today the guide also contains
batch amounts which means you can make
these recipes
one day and they could last for two
weeks so it's just
makes your life a whole lot easier
chicken is a lean meat so we will be
mixing it with some really healthy oils
we're just going to use extra virgin
olive oil today
um your other options are hemp seed oil
coconut oil
mct oil which is probably the healthiest
of the lot okay now for our multivitamin
the chicken liver
just a couple chicken livers in this
recipe
nice and small chunks
it's not that gruesome for those of you
who are
less inclined to handle raw meat
vegetarians and vegans remember this is
best for your dog
i know it's probably quite a strenuous
task for you but
it is a natural diet for a dog
okay so it's probably taken about two
minutes to chop up the water has boiled
in that time we're going to chuck all
the meat into the water
and probably that will take around
five to seven minutes it really does not
take very long
all right in the meantime whilst that's
boiling we are going to grate the
vegetables the reason why we're grating
them is to make them into unavoidable
sized chunks thinly grating them just
helps the dog break the vegetable down
and helps the digestive system to
extract the nutrients
so we're going to do a carrot and a
chunk of broccoli
okay there's probably enough carrot
there
raw broccoli i've mentioned this before
in previous videos is a cruciferous
vegetable that is high in sulfurophane
raw broccoli has 10 times more
sulfurophane in it than cooked broccoli
and that is important sulfurophane is an
anti-cancer food compound so the more of
this
you can get into your dog's diet the
more you can help
support them don't grate your fingers
into the food
although i imagine your dog wouldn't
bat an eyelid
okay okay
we've sieved out our meat
should be still nice and warm then what
we're going to do is take the veg and
just chuck it in there mix it all
together
mix this all together
okay so the remaining ingredients we
have our egg uh just crack that in and
keep the eggshell we're gonna use that
as our calcium sauce
crush the eggshell chop it up into nice
fine
fine bits raw feeders you can use a
raw meaty bone a small bone like a
chicken wing or a small duck neck per
500 grams of food will ensure you're
getting the balance of calcium
correct
nice and fine
into the mix
okay so
we've got our veggie our egg our calcium
and our meat now all we need to do is
add the oil this is a lean meat we have
to supplement this meal with a bit of
added fats to ensure that the dog is
getting the energy that it it requires
from the food
now
another option
with this meal you can bolster it with
some carbs
i i don't normally recommend dogs eat
carbs every single day but having said
that you can find some really healthy
carbs that you can bolster the meal with
occasionally and your dog will get some
amazing health benefits from those for
example a bit of cooked sweet potato if
you have any of that
lying around you want to make it no more
than 15 to 20 percent of the meal and
only do it a few times a week not every
day so
mix the egg in we're going to pour our
oils
oils into the meal
mix that up
very nice
finally
last but not least we have my meal
topper this meal topper
it's to help boost the overall nutrition
profile of the meals it does also
contain nice smelling herbs like thyme
and sage which your dog
will will smell and get stimulated by
in this supplement we've got pumpkin
seeds thyme cranberry papaya reishi
mushroom nettles seaweed
all of the ingredients i've picked
myself to help boost the overall
nutrition profile of your dog's meal it
helps ensure that you know they're not
going to miss out on any of those vital
nutrients and they're also you know
really functional foods papayas
digestive enzymes which helps
your dog actually get the most out of
the meal you've got
mushrooms which are known to support
immune system
cranberries good source of copper it's
just such a well-rounded simple and
tasty supplement that you can add to
your dog's meal
so we've mixed it all in together
if you want to add a little bit of sweet
potato or some whole grain rice maybe
you can do that we're going to we're
going to do that today
now all that's left is to put it into
the bowl and feed the dog so i'm just
going to portion out a little bit into
this bowl
save some for later
and then
just to top it all off put the cherry on
the cake we've got some left over sweet
potato you can use whole grain rice if
you have some available bit of sweet
potato
butternut squash or cooked beetroot all
of those ingredients need to be cooked
and just
slot them in
wunderbar if you want
you can also add some sardines in water
a little bit of fish this is
very extra but
why not the best of the best for your
dog
there we have it we've added
a little bit of sardine and water
omega-3 sauce it's a fish-based omega-3
sauce which means it contains the dha
fatty acids these are the ones that
provide us and our dogs with the
associated health benefits over let's
say flaxseed oil or chia seeds which
contain
ala and epa which have less of the
associated health benefits so
look at this meal it is super healthy
it's delicious
and simple to make your dog is going to
love you for making these meals
