July 17: New Diet

July 17, 2008

In all our extensive research, we found much proof that typical dry dog food is very bad. I could go on and on, but to make a long story short, we decided that we would cook meals for Addie starting that day.

We had been primarily feeding Iams which we thought was "high quality" food. We were sadly mistaken. For Shep, our other dog, we will be purchasing alternative dog food.

Effective today, Addie's meals consist of:

1.5 C. cooked meat (chicken, pork, beef)
1/2 C. veggies (chopped broccoli, zucchini, etc.)
Some Sardines with oil
Olive Oil
Above is sautéed together until warm - veggies cooked
Served 2 times per day

Once a day - add the following to the mix:
Garlic
Fish Oil
Glucosamine (for joints)
CoQ10
Vitamin C

She absolutely loves her new food - garlic and all!
