Ultimate Homemade
Doggy Diets
 How to make dog food super healthy
Dogs are similar, but each dog and their digestion is unique.

Find what works best for your dog.

Variety is healthy, but there’s a healthy balance you need to find between variety
and using the ingredients that work best for your dog. Often dogs don’t do well at
all on certain meats, this is normal, figure out which they are and avoid them!

Simple Rules to Follow:

• Find around 3-4 meats that work for your dog and try to feed your dog fish a
couple times a week. Use organ meats regularyly, it doesn't have to be daily.
• Use raw meaty bones (even if you want to feed your dog cooked
recipes) appropriately sized at least few times a week.
• Choose the veggies your dog will eat, and include some fruits.
• Use carbs if you want, but don’t make them more than 20% of your dog’s diet.
• Avoid letting your dog get chubby.

IMPORTANT
Exact quantities are not necessary. Stop stressing over their food, your dog is a dog
and they'll likely be super happy and super healthy just by you having this knowledge.

How to make dog food
cost effective
Step 1 - Sourcing the meat
Meat is the expensive part of the diet. If you can find meat
which costs less than £6 or $8 dollars per 1kg (2.2lbs) than you
will be making signifcanty savings by making the food.

Where to find cheap meat?

• Dog food companies selling raw meat minces (Online)
• Human wholesale meat companies (Online)
• Local game meat suppliers (Online/ locally sourced)
• Local butchers with off cuts (Locally sourced)
• Reduced section at the supermarket (Locally sourced)

Step 2 - Batches of food & freezer space

You will need to make batches, as you're buying food in bulk. That is
how you save time and money, but you will also need space to store the
food. Make sure you have adequate freezer space for some extra dog
food meals. I would also recommend a mincer, something like this.

Step 3 - Bulking the food with carbs

Making 20% of the meals cooked sweet potato, pumpkin or squash can
help you save money. The recipes provide instruction on how to do this.

 Small vs. Big Dog Digestion
Your dog's digestive system is adapted to their facultative carnivorous diet
(i.e. high-protein and high-fat diet) with a short and simple digestive tract.
That means their designed to eat more meats than humans.

The Gut Size

Larger breeds have a proportionately smaller gastrointestinal tract,
comprising 3–4% body weight (BW) compared to 6–7% BW in smaller
breeds. Despite the reduced size, larger breed dogs actually have a longer
gastric emptying time, meaning food stays in their system longer.

Food Digestibility
How does this affect the digestibility of food? Well, in terms of
protein and fat digestion, studies have shown that these appear to
be equal between different dog sizes. However fibre digestibility
appears to be slightly higher in larger dogs than smaller dogs (4).

What does this mean?

Larger dogs are better are breaking down non meats,
but will still require a meat based diet.
Smaller dogs can be worse at digesting non-meats.

If you have a small dog, reducing the non-meats

can suit their digestive system better.

What to do IF there's a problem
Occasionally your dog will eat someting they shouldn't and then you
wake up with poo all over your house. This can happen, no matter the
diet you choose, but I want you to be prepared so you don’t freak out!

Reactions
• If your dog has a digestive issue, causing vommiting, diarrhoae
or itching. This can often be a reaction to a protein (a food
intolerance to a meat), or something they've eaten in the park.
• Use the upset stomach guide p42. Alternatively, if you want assistance
or there is a persistant issue, please sign up for a consultation.
• Vets are totally unqualified to deal with digestive issues.

Giardia/ Campylobacter (Not caused by food, common mistake)

• Often dogs with digestive issues are tested for bacterial infection, and
test will reveal a positive result for either Giardia or Campylobacter.
• The Vet will blame raw food or a homemade diet, put your
dog on antibiotics. Frequently owners are then terrified to
start homemade again, because it was "their fault".
• It’s far more likely your dog has picked something
up in the park, from faeces or dirty water.
• If you need assistance, please sign up for a consultation
and we can work together to get your dog's gut back to
full working order (using natural methods only).

Please don’t let this put you off, it's blip and your dog will recover!

Which recipes should you use? Week 1-5 Use everyday adult recipes - normal quantity

Week 6 Increase food by 5-10%

The recipes you should use don't change, but the quantity of food changes
as the mother will need more energy later on during the pregancy.
However, by the end of week 8 you will need to drop the food again. Week 7 Increase food by 5-10% again

Try to vary the recipes you feed the mother up until Week 7, from then Week 8 Increase food by 5-10% again
on only feed the ingredients you're sure she does best on.

Week 9 Drop food to 1/3 or 1/2 of Week 5 amount.

Reduce calcium or bone consumption on week 8 and start again post pregnancy.

 How a puppy’s immune system develops

In starts with the health of the mother, then how healthy her breast milk is and finally what
they are exposed to within the first 2-6 months.

Puppy Immune System

The immune system of a dog is developed by 6 months old.

To make sure your puppies develop in the healthiest way possible, they need to be
exposed to “potential allergens” so their immune system can learn that they aren’t
threats and that they’re just a part of natural life.

If they aren’t exposed within the early parts of their life, when their immune system
can learn, then it’s more likely they’ll develop allergies in the future.

Try different ingredients, take your puppy to different parks (do and try as much
as you can with them in the first 6 months).

Find at least 4 varieties of recipes for your dog before the age of 6 months old.

What about freezing the food?

You do not have to freeze food before you serve, freezing is a

it. If it's not, freeze it for 24hrs before serving (defrosted).

Can I refreeze food?

If you buy meat that's frozen, you'll need to defrost it to make
a batch of food. You can refreeze the prepared food, but you
must prepare it on the day you defrost the ingredients.

When Not To Fast:
Try not to feed more than 3 times per week in general.
You should never fast a puppy or an elderly dog who has ongoing health

Gut Health
Your dog's gut controls their overall health and wellbeing. If you can nourish it
appropriately, which you will as you've come this far, then they will not visit the vets.
Because of you.

 Senior Dogs
Keep your dog bounding around, and protect against common aging
issues with functional foods and proper canine nutrition.

Feeding Quantity & Frequency

The most important part of longevity is not overfeeding your dog, both in
quantity and in frequency. In the dog aging project (a study on 35,000 dogs)
it found that adult dogs fed once daily had better average cognitive scores
and were less likely to have gastrointestinal, dental/oral, orthopedic, kidney/
urinary, and liver/pancreas health conditions than dogs fed more frequently.

Anti Cancer
Cancer is the leading cause of death in dogs, but certain functional
foods have been shown to be anti-cancer. Mushrooms, broccoli and
blueberries are all included in our recipe for senior dogs.

Mobility
Make sure your dog is lean and reducing pressure on their joints is the main way in
which you support molbity going into their later years. All they want is to continue
to do stuff with you, so use the joints boost recipes a few times a week.

Deficiencies
Continue to provide variety to ensure your dog has a complete
supply of nutritients. Use different recipes as well as using your dog's
favourite ingredients to provide optimal nutrition support.

 Skin & Coat Health
This is how your dog becomes the glossiest pooch in the park.

Protein
Protein quality, from fresh foods (or more expensive meat) will make a huge difference
to your dog's appearance, as skin and hair is made of protein. That means for your
dog to reproduce the healthiest skin cells and hair follicles, they need quality protein.

Skin Inflammation
Inflammation plays a huge roll it dry itchy skin. Figuring out which foods
(mainly meats) your dog does best on, is paramount to avoid this issue. Avoid
inflammatory ingredients like cereals of diets high in carbohydrtaes.
You should also look at your dog's enviroment, and try to reduce exposure to
potential irratants. Avoid using chemical cleaning products in the house.

Coat Health
Washing your dog isn't always helpful, as it can affect the natural
biome of the skin and "self-cleaning" oils that are are released by their
hairs. Never shampoo your dog more than once a week, and only use
100% Natural Shampoo or the wash mix provided on page. 233.

Does your dog have allergies?

Both food and enviroemental allergies can wreak havoc on your dog's skin, if it's
affecting your dog's qualtiy of life please arrange a consultation with Cam.
We can get this resolved naturally, and at a hugely reduced cost. Steroids and
veterinary diets are dangerous and unsustainable, no matter what your Vet says.

Joint and Mobility Health
The longer your dog stays mobile, the happier they'll be.

Weight
Excess weight = extra pain.
It is your responsibilty to make sure your dog is lean if they have joint issues,

Joint Inflammation
Athritis is inflammation of the joints that is brought on by old age and wear/ tear,
but also by food ingredients. Avoid inflammatory ingredients like cereals or diets
that are high in carbohydrates. I would recommend NOT using carbohydrates
in your dog's meals for at least 50% of the time if they have joint issues.

NSAIDs
You must be careful with these, as there long term use is connected to whole host of
issues. In particular to kidney damage. You must balance the improved quality of life
that pain killers can provide, with the long term effects they most cetainly have.

Natural Anti-inflammatories
Diet play the biggest role in inflammation. Use my recipes as often as
possible and they will help control your dog's joint inflammation.
