A solution to this is to make your own. We have collected some of the best home made dog food recipes here and have included links to the websites where they originally appeared. A lot of the recipes use similar ingredients and are made in a Crock Pot or slow cooker. We suggest you visit the sites, check out the recipes and, maybe, come up with your own unique variation suited to the needs of your dog.
