Veterinarian Approved Diet for Dogs

This diet was developed by a veterinarian. My 12-year-old collie lost a lot of weight this past year and her coat was very dry and thin. Lily would not eat most dog foods. So my vet recommended this diet, which she loves, and she has gained all of her weight back and has a very glossy coat.

It is very simple to prepare and uses all human grade ingredients. It was formulated for a 60 pound dog, and this recipe equals one day of food. You may want to check with your vet before you try it to be sure that it is suitable for your dog's health condition. This recipe equals approximately 1,350 calories.



Mix together:

  • 10 ounces of one of the following: cooked chicken, turkey, beef, fish, or pork
  • 1/2 cup steamed carrots
  • 1/2 cup steamed broccoli
  • 1/2 cup steamed spinach
  • 1/2 red or yellow pepper
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1/4 tsp ginger, either dried or fresh
  • 1/4 tsp dried mustard
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
