MAMA PORKPIE'S DOG FOOD FOR LITTLE FATTIES



Mama Porkpie's Dog Food for Little Fatties image

My girls are loving this recipe to help with their summer weight loss. I tend to get "treat" happy which put on extra pounds so it is my fault and because of that I didn't want them to have to deal with the dreaded "diet" dog foods. Check with your Vet to see how much you will need to feed your little one to lose those extra pounds. As for the vegetables, my babies love green beans, beets, carrots,& peas. The important thing is to use a variety and if using canned, they must be the kind that have NO SALT ADDED. I found this recipe on food.com.

Categories     For Pets

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 1/2 pound(s) ground chicken (2-20 oz packages) or you could use
2 1/2 pound(s) ground turkey (2-20 oz packages)
4 can(s) vegetables (15 oz) (beets, carrots, green beans, peas, mixed, spinach, lima beans - have fun!)
1 1/2 cup(s) uncooked brown rice
1 bunch(es) parsley (this is the pain of the recipe!)

Steps:

  • 1. This recipe, as is, yields approximately 4-5 quarts, which is more than a small or medium-sized dog can consume while it remains good in the refrigerator. Therefore, the first step is to go to the dollar store and buy 8-10 pint-sized freezer containers. Heck, spend a lot more money and buy Tupperware if you want. Or if you are particularly ambitious, pack the finished product into canning jars and seal them. I prefer to just freeze it in pint containers until ready for use.
  • 2. Open the cans of veggies and drain the liquid into the largest measuring cup you have, as much as possible. You should get about 3 cups of liquid but if not, add water to make exactly 3 cups. This is when I hate cooking with the beets because my water and stuff always ends up red! UGH!
  • 3. Put the liquid into a 5-quart dutch oven on the the stove and bring to a boil.
  • 4. Add the brown rice, stir, cover, and turn to low heat. Set the timer for 45 minutes. If it gets done before you are done with the next 2 steps, just move it aside somewhere off the heat without removing the lid or disturbing it in any way.
  • 5. While you are waiting on the rice, cook the chicken or turkey meat in a frying pan until completely done. Transfer it into a fine-mesh colander and place in the sink to let the liquid drain out while the rice is cooking.
  • 6. If you are using vegetables that have pieces larger than 1/2" then you need to use this time to cut them down further. For example, my dogs love beets but the only salt-free variety I can find are sliced beets. I chop the slices into small dice, and I do the same with the green beans.
  • 7. Also use this time to prepare the parsley. THE DREADED PARSLEY!! This part is important. First clean it as you normally would, then remove all the large stems so that what you have left are just the tiny sprigs. Then transfer the sprigs to your food processor. If you don't have one, get out your biggest, sharpest knife and start chopping. The parsley needs to be VERY finely chopped. If not, you will find it all over the floor after Fido's feeding time. Babies don't like the texture of whole parsley and will spit it out. It is, however, good for their breath and digestion and it's very low-cal.
  • 8. When the rice is done and has been taken off the heat, open the lid and add the meat, stir well.
  • 9. Add all the vegetables, stir well.
  • 10. Add the parsley. Mix thoroughly.
  • 11. Pack the mixture into pint-sized containers and store properly, keeping one out for immediate use.

DOG FOOD FOR NORMAL, FUSSY, FAT, THIN AND DIABETIC DOGS



Dog Food for Normal, Fussy, Fat, Thin and Diabetic Dogs image

I have been making this recipe since the 1990s. It has been successfully served to at least 20 different dogs. It seems to appeal to them all. Fat ones lose weight. Thin ones gain weight. Even fussy and diabetic dogs will usually eat it. The recipe, when made as shown, is enough to feed about 30 kilos (or 66 pounds) of dog for a week. I serve this recipe once a day (in the evening) and add one large handful of hard food per 10 kilos (22 pounds) of dog. The morning feed is one handful of hard food per 10 kilos of dog. This recipe is based on a core approach given to me by a Chinese friend, Pamela, who always said tinned dog food was hard on a dog's kidneys-especially true, she said, for male dogs. The first dogs to enjoy this recipe each lived to 15 years of age. It's okay to leave out, short-change or substitute ingredients, but don't give dogs onions. The recipe form insists on an indication of servings, so I said 14 ( a serve a day for two dogs). This is the first recipe I ever submitted to Zaar. Hey, don't we all put our kids and dogs first?

Time 1h45m

Yield 14 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 lbs carrots
2 lbs potatoes
1/2 bunch celery (can sub zucchini when it's plentiful)
2 -3 lbs beef (cheap cuts of hamburger, mince, chuck or the like)
1/4 dripping (optional)
3 -4 chicken stock cubes (optional)
3 -4 quarts water (12-16 cups)
1 lb pearl barley, dried

Steps:

  • If you are making the recipe as shown, before you start to prepare it, make sure you have a pot large enough to hold all the ingredients. A very large stock pot is great and essential.
  • Chop or slice the carrots, potatoes, celery and meat (other than minced meat) to a size that suits your dog.
  • Add the above ingredients to the pot.
  • Add the drippings, or soy sauce and stock cubes to the pot. If you don't make roasts, see if your neighbours will save their drippings. This recipe can be made without the drippings or soy sauce/stock cubes, but I think the doggies deserve this luxury. You can freeze drippings.
  • Add the water to the pot. You may need to reduce the amount of water. It will depend on the moisture content in the vegetables and meat. These days, I use about 12-14 cups of water.
  • Put the pot on the stove top, over a high heat.
  • Let it cook for about one hour.
  • Then -- assuming the mixture has come to a boil -- add the barley. Don't add the barley until the boil happens (it doesn't have to be a big rolling boil).
  • After adding the barley, cook for another 30-35 minutes (depending on what the barley package suggests.
  • This recipe really holds its heat, so let it cool for at least four hours before serving. Better still, make the recipe in the morning (weekends are good), then dish up the servings for the evening meal and let them cool all day.
  • Store in the refrigerator after completely cooled. Freezes well.

OAMC HOMEMADE DOG FOOD



OAMC Homemade Dog Food image

Once a month cooking (OAMC) for the canine member of your family! For a 50lb dog this makes enough quantity for 2 weeks, double it or make two batches to stock your freezer with a month's supply of highly nutritional dog food. My 9-month old black-mouth cur rescue dog was a very picky eater and losing weight before I started making him this homemade dog food. I researched canine nutritional needs and combined recipes to come up with this recipe, keeping the proportions and nutrients inline with recommendations I found online. Vegetables should either be chopped to small pieces or pureed because dogs do not chew their food so large pieces will pass through undigested. Overcook the rice and vegetables, the softer the better! Satisfies the fussiest of eaters, every dog that has tried this recipe has licked his/her chomps in gratitude and licked his/her bowl clean! Rivals the most expensive commercial dog foods in nutritional value at a fraction of the cost!
