Keeping in mind that dog’s need a balanced diet, here’s a super simple homemade dog food combination: 1. Brown rice. Long grain brown rice is inexpensive and a good source of fiber. 2. Beans. Having a variety of beans like black beans and kidney beans in your dog’s diet will provide them with protein, B vitamins, fiber, iron, folate, potassium, magnesium, and phytonutrients. Since dogs tend to swallow food whole instead of chewing, it is important that you cook beans thoroughly and then mash them up well. 3. Olive Oil or other. Add a tablespoon to the beans while you mash them. 4. Orange sweet potato. Sweet potatoes and yams are easier for both humans and dogs to digest. Potatoes are high in fiber, vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin E, and B-vitamins. Like beans, cook well until soft and mash up. 5. Apples. A great source of vitamin A and C, apples are also a good way to clean a dog’s teeth. Make sure to dice up and to be safe, do not include the apple seeds in dog food. Add a spoonful of nutritional yeast that has been fortified with vitamin B12 for a little extra yum!
