Program 2 - Kibble + Fruits/Veggies + Raw Meat |
|
RECOMMEND KIBBLE FRUITS/VEGGIES AND RAW MEAT 1. FOOD: I recommend/use: Precise line of pet foods. 2. RAW MEAT/FRUITS/VEGGIES: I recommend/use: Honest Kitchen Embark or if you oly want fruits and veggies go with Honest Kitchen Preference Dehydrated Raw EMBARK is a raw organic turkey-fruit- veggie option that can be a stand alone diet or used to "top dress" a holistic kibble. PREFERENCE is a fruit-veggie-herbal combination for those who don't want to add extra meat or grains to a diet. 3. BALANCED RAW MEAT: I recommend/use: http://www.darwinspet.com The great thing is they now have a freeze dried complete raw, it comes in a cube, the dogs love it. They have freeze dried treats too. It means NO refridgeration at all, crumble cubes on kibble, you can add water if you want or not. These are not dehydrated so you don't try to soak them.

I choose foods according to specific needs, not name on the bag ie: puppy food, senior food etc.. I look at the protein/fat, calcium levels and calories per cup in making a decision about what to feed, for what purpose - especially when it comes to giant breeds special needs. Precise has two lines - the Precise Plus line which is a Holistic line of pet foods, then they have a Super Premium line of foods. To find distrubution

ENHANCING KIBBLE WITH VARIETY VARIETY WITH HOLISTIC CANNED MEATS: VARIETY
WITH FRUITS
&VEGETABLE: use
in moderation: One suggestion, if you do not like to take the time to prepare fruits and veggies is to purchase large bags from Costco or Sam's Club or Canine Caviar makes a dehydrated fruit and veggie bag.
Use 2 large cans of chicken or beef broth - (low sodium for heart or elderly dogs- or homemade). Add LOTS of veggies - carrots, green beans, wax beans, zucchini, squash, tomatoes, cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower and couple cloves of garlic. The idea is to use this as the filler so you want it to be hearty and filling. Do not add additional rice, chicken or other meats from the grocery store to a PUPPY'S DIET, as it will upset the balance of the calcium and phosphorus levels during growth stages. Use only holistic canned meats (balanced in calcium/phosphorus levels). DO NOT MICROWAVE OR SOAK YOUR KIBBLE IN HOT WATER AS IT WILL DESTROY IMPORTANT NUTRIENTS ON THE DOG FOOD. About Precise Products - there
is no soy, wheat or corn in their product line. All naturally preserved
and with all human grade ingredients. Precise is a family owned company
with their own manufacturing plants, like Eagle had before the WellPet
takeover, which means Precise has total control of the product line
from ingredient sources, lab testing and the manufacturing process.
This includes testing after manufacturing before going to distribution.
Pet Product News states that Precise's manufacturing plant (Texas
Farms) has 100% safety record on the plant since it's beginning.
