Easy Homemade Dog Food Recipe (Crockpot)

Recipe - Tipnut.comIf you plan on serving your dog a regular homemade diet, check with your veterinarian first. Dogs have their own nutritional needs that should be met to ensure a healthy pet.

Homemade Dog Food Recipe

Slowcooker Ingredients:

1 fryer chicken (cut up)
1 package chicken organs (hearts, livers)
1 cup barley
2 medium potatoes – cubed
4 carrots – chopped
2 stalks celery – chopped
1/2 head garlic

Optional additions: Bone Meal (for calcium)
Toppings: Olive Oil & Parsley

  • Place potatoes in the crockpot, add chicken pieces, then cover with the rest of the vegetables and ingredients. Top with water until covered. Cook in the slow cooker for several hours until chicken is cooked and vegetables are done.
  • Take the chicken out and remove all the meat from the bones. Using a food processor, or a blender, or hand masher–mix all the meat, vegetables & barley together. You could have a puree or a thick mash, both are fine. Add some broth from the crockpot to get the consistency of thick chili.
  • Separate into serving portions and mix in 1 TBS of bonemeal for each portion. Freeze the portions in separate containers or freezer bags.

Before each serving: Sprinkle 1 TBS parsley and drizzle about 1 TBS of olive oil over the food.

Serving Size: 1 1/2 cups per serving for a 15 lb dog.

    Once every week and a half. I cook a whole bag of rice in a large pot, Boil a bag of chicken breasts with no bones, and boil 3 large bags of chopped carrots. I let them cool and then combine the whole lot with concreted chicken broth made from bullion cubes. Lastly I use my vacuum sealer, and individually seal around 25 bags to keep in the back of our freezer. This allows us to microwave our dog’s food on the go lasting a week and a half. I takes an hour to prepare and seal, but in the end; It’s nice to have quality food for our dog on hand.
