hey you guys welcome back to my channel
today there's a window right behind the
camera and there's two people walking by
with the dog so that's why she's barmy
so today's video is a little bit
different than what I usually do in my
kitchen because today we are making food
for this little girl
right here so I have been making Maddy's
homemade dog poop for probably three or
four years now
disclaimer I am NOT a licensed
veterinarian I'm just sharing the dog
food recipe that we've been meeting
Maddie so sometimes we do some
variations to this recipe but this is
just kind of a bit of a basic version
that I'm going to show you today
Maddie has been eating this homemade dog
food for probably three or four years
now and she is five she absolutely loves
it she does really well on it so why did
I start making homemade dog food because
it's a lot of work it's not easy I do
this every probably two and a half or
three weeks
so basically when Maddie was about one
or two years old she was eating just dry
dog food kibble and I replaced one of
the bags I just picked another and I'm
at the pet store and after I made for
the first feeding of it she was like
struggling to breathe and she was
coughing and
having a lot of troubles I was like in
total panic mode we talked to the bat
and we have an amazing veterinarian and
she ended up spending the night there
and after that they told us that she's
really sensitive to different foods and
she has a sensitive stomach and we
should be careful what we feed her
things like that and then I kind of just
started doing my own research into the
pet food industry as a whole and what
really was in commercial pet foods and I
learned a lot I will put the link down
below for a great documentary called pet
pool and you can find this on necklace
it has a whole lot of great information
out there if you're just trying to get
into the comité dog food and maybe learn
some more about the commercial pet food
industry so before we start I do want to
mention a couple things and give you a
couple of reasons why
homemade pet food can be a whole lot
better than commercial so basically the
dog food industry is run by the same
companies that make candy bars so in my
mind they're not really qualified in pet
nutrition
there are also some important reasons to
feed homemade or fresh dog food so I
feel like you're gonna have a couple
little notes right now dog spend a homie
diet using high quality foods from their
owners at versus commercial pet food had
a life expectancy of 32 months longer
that is at almost three years
and we love our little perfect so you
know what I just want to do whatever I
can to make sure that she is fed the
best food and that she's happy and
healthy and can live a long life this
the packaging on dog food labels can
also be extremely misleading so here are
some facts that I learned from the pet
pool documentary if the dog food says
the word with it only needs to contain 3
percent of that ingredient if they use
the word dinner or formula it only needs
to contain 25% of that ingredient so
packaging is very misleading so today
experts claim that 60% of dogs will
develop cancer in their lifetimes it's
just way too high the statistics so I
just want to do everything that I can to
prevent that from happening to my dog
because why wouldn't I I would do the
same if I had a human child so studies
have found that dogs who were fed leafy
green vegetables at least 3 times a week
we're 90% less likely to develop cancer
just by adding some leafy green
vegetables into your dog's kibble if
you're not ready to start doing homemade
food yet that can make a huge difference
it was also found that dogs that yellow
and orange types of vegetables three to
three times a week minimum for 70
percent less likely to develop a cancer
so again these are just some vegetables
you could be adding into your dog's
kibble if you're not ready to do homie
yeah I think it's also important to
mention too that the ingredients that I
use for mady are necessarily going to
work for your dog just experiment with
different vegetables of course
research first and make sure that
they're safe for God but find out which
vegetables your dog like so the same
thing goes with the protein source for
the most part most dogs do not do well
with chicken so we don't feed her
chicken we give her ground turkey and
yes even though I am plant-based my dog
eats meat because I would never in a
million years to make that decision for
her I don't really agree with vegan dogs
if that does not sit well with me so I
just wanted to mention that in case
maybe anyone ever assumed that because
I'm playing bass if I feed my dog
plant-based no frickin way I would never
in a million years do that another
hidden ingredient in dog food is the
dice and grains so Debra and I moved
this is probably two years ago two or
three years ago and at the time we were
feeding Maddie for homemade dog food she
was absolutely loving at her face with
salt light and fluffy like it is now but
prior to that when we were feeding her
kibble in the first one or two years of
her life she always had black and she
doesn't always better
she always have black on like stains
tear staining under her eyes and we
would go to the pet store and they'd say
I'll try this product try this product
could clear it I tried all of the
different things and then from elm
research I discovered that the staining
is from dyes in the food so we had moved
and we started to notice that even
though she was even your homemade over
her face was turning brown she was
having the black - you're saying again
and we like we're so confused
we could not
figure out why so one day we come follow
it around and see what she's up to and
she had found a bag of kibble submits
dry dog food that was left in the first
room that we didn't know go so she was
having a free-for-all for probably three
or four weeks just helping herself and I
saw the difference because her face
turned brown again and after we got rid
of that dog food and made it so she
don't get it anymore it still took
probably three or four months of eating
her homemade dog food for that staining
to be out of her system again I'm gonna
show you guys how we make Maddy's home
eat dog food today the first thing that
I always start with is make sure they
actually throw on a Netflix show and
just keep myself occupied and I peel and
chop up a three pound bag of carrots and
a sweet potato okay so I have my sweet
potato peeled and my three pounds bag of
carrots peeled next I'm gonna cut these
up so I'm gonna chop up my sleep it
doesn't need to be super small pieces
because
it's cooked we're gonna mash it before
we add it into the rest of the dog food
anyway and now for the parents
I don't mash the carrots but I do cut
them up kinda small so that I can just
throw them right into the dog food with
my dog in particular men doesn't really
chew things very well so I can't really
leave big pieces because she would like
John I know that you guys are probably
thinking like dogs aren't that stupid I
learn to not eat so fast but I'm telling
you she discovered we have tried it's
just not worth it so I just taught them
a little bit smaller for her so my
carrots and sweet potatoes are all
chopped I'm going to like cover these
with water and then boil them until
they're soft
[Music]
okay so we have our cut up and peeled
carrots and sweet potato we're gonna
turn these on this one always confuses
me because it's backwards so I'm going
to wash and cut up these ingredients I'm
going to keep them aside in my bowl here
and they're going to get added to the
food raw with the meat and just kind of
get cooked in doers you probably use it
[Music]
I'm just kind of ripping these up into
little bite-sized pieces that I know
what size sheet meat and I only know
that because if I get her piece of
something and it's too big for her she
literally will not eat it she will leave
it oh okay okay
Jesse err sighs hey girl she's also
obsessed with
I use a low sometimes in the summer I
always get nice organic fresh peas or
beans from our own garden and let me
just show you one this sit like a goose
or my good girl
it's hi Jerry I'm German you so chill
you got broccoli at your head okay so we
have our bowl of raw veggies these are
green beans broccoli and zucchini so I'm
going to put these aside so now we're
gonna start cooking the meat I'm using
extra lean minutes turkey for her
because I know it sits well with her
this is her primary favorite protein
we've tried some other ones this one
seems to be the best so I'm going to
turn this large pot to about medium
temperature and then the wait for it to
heat up just a little bit and then I'm
gonna add in the meat I can put a fork
through my sweet potatoes now so I know
that those are done I'm going to take
them off now that my pipe is heated up
I'm going to start adding the meat
[Music]
I'm gonna let this cook for a little bit
before I start breaking it up this is it
and Maddy is waiting ever so patiently
you waiting for you dog food so now that
this is starting to cook a little bit
I'm going to break up the big pieces the
dog food is mostly cooked there's a
little bit of pink left and I do leave
some of the pink meat because it's fine
for dogs to have raw meat I just don't
do totally raw out with Matty because it
doesn't sit well with her so when it's
looking like this I like to add a little
bit of organic turmeric start really
small when you start offering to rent
for your pets I only give her a load
this much in that entire batch of food
so less than probably a teaspoon I'm
gonna add that to the beach so you can
do your own research there and make your
own informed decision this is just what
I do and while there's still some pink
left I'm going to add in today I'm using
a bag of frozen chopped kale sometimes I
use spinach and sometimes I use fresh
kale or spinach when I have it in the
summer time we have fresh kale and
spinach in the garden so that's what we
used right now it's winter so we're
gonna frozen our image
[Music]
so at this time I'm going to add all of
my green vegetables next I'm going to
mash the sweet potato okay the carrots
are soft enough now I'm going to add in
the cooked carrots to the meat mixture
[Music]
and I'm gonna add in the cooked and
mashed
[Music]
and I'm going to turn the heat
completely off now because everything in
here is cooked and ready to go so I'm
just kind of fixing to make sure
everything is well combined
[Music]
so her food is completely cooked heat is
off now I'm going to add in this seaweed
calcium I ordered this from Amazon and I
checked before I film this video because
I wanted to put the link for you guys
but right now it says that it's
currently unavailable I think this has
happened before and I'm probably just
gonna have to wait until it's back in
stock but one of these lasts me probably
six months and this is about $35 and I
do add this in just to make sure she's
getting enough calcium add one
tablespoon per pound of homemade dog
food so I usually add about 17 foods to
her food I'm also adding up a half a cup
of cooked white rice this is totally
optional I don't do this every time so
now that our food is done I'm going to
divide it up into these little
containers that I can put in the freezer
I do keep some in the fridge and I got
for a couple days but once it's cool I
will freeze them and then I could just
take one over the night before when I
know that she's low so first
I'm actually gonna dish some up for her
so she can have some now and it
we let this fool hey baby no no no zoom
though he knows that this is Hertz and
she loves it cool - honey - lit up there
God's try this because they also love it
like I used to just feed this to Maddie
and my mom's two dogs and kibble and
they would go insane for Maddy's food so
my mom actually started kind of
following this recipe as well and
feeding it to her two dogs and they
don't do really well on it they love it
of course she makes some changes because
they like some different things and
there's some vegetables that they don't
like and she actually does hers in slow
cooker so that way you don't have to
cook things separately you can just kind
of throw it all in there the one thing I
really do want to try one of these days
is cooking this in the instant pots and
the instant POTUS was to keep like all
the nutrition so I do want to experiment
and try that I'll let you know
[Music]
