Natural Pet Nutrition for Your Dog

Yes, cooking for your pet seems like another item on your growing to-do list, especially when you barely take the time to cook for yourself (I speak from experience here!) But, preparing meals for your pet can be economical, easy and fun…with a little planning. You may want to start by mixing in some vegetables with your dog’s kibble. Good ones to try are grated carrots (my dog loves them), chopped parsley, grated zucchini/soft squash or cooked green beans. You take this simple step to improving your dog’s health while preparing these veggies for yourself (admit it, you could eat more veggies!) Or, if you want to try something fun, make your own biscuits! Use a cookie cutter of your own or get bone-shaped cookie cutters (see Resources) and follow the recipe here. Your dog will love you even more for it and you’ll feel good feeding her a biscuit you might eat yourself!
