Supplement with homemade protein?
Posted: Sun Dec 29, 2013 6:16 pm
Hi All--
It would nice to be able to supplement Coco's kibble with some homemade protein--ground pork, lamb, bison, venison, turkey, tuna, shrimp, etc. Id like to be able to mix half ground protein (cooked and not raw) and half kibble.
Has anyone done this? Will half complete kibble and half protein be a balanced diet? Is there a way to make this a balanced diet without going 100% homemade? I don't have time to be a dog chef since lord knows I barely cook for myself, but I'd be happy to buy a certain vitamin or complete kibble to make she is getting her daily requirements. Of course I can ask my vet, but was just curious to see if anyone else does this on a supplemental basis.
If anyone does this at home, I'd appreciate your perspective.
