Keeping your young dog healthy (my recipes)

Posted on by — 14 Comments ↓

TGIF ! Friday has arrived, it is hot outside and today we going to discuss what I am doing to keep Nili healthy from a young age so as she grows older she stays healthy and hopefully slim as well as I am still struggling with her weight.

I might be chunky but my bandanna fits me, Happy Pride Everyone, Nili

 

As most of you know I do not believe in kibbles but with the rising prices of produce I unfortunately am feeding her once a day a 1/3 of a cup of kibble but the rest of the day she gets home cooked food and treats, plus of course supplements.

 

So, I decided to share her what she is eating, my food/treat recipes to help you find solutions and to avoid mass produced food and treats where possible. It is working out to be cheaper this way and I am blessed she is a small dog, so it is easier, plus I cook in bulk and freeze in portions.

 

I am an affiliate for some of these products so if you decide to try them we would appreciate you using our coupons which would help pay my bills.

 

Dog Food – Ground Beef or Ground Turkey

1 lb of the meat (whichever you decide, and ground chicken can be used also

1 cup of Oat flour

2 Eggs

1 cup of YumWoof Dogfood Perfect Dog Food Mix (this has all the nutrients needed to balance the food)

I mix all together, heat the oven to 350 Degrees, lay it flat on parchment paper on a cookie baking pan, bake it till ready. Switch off oven and let it cool down, I then cut and put in ziplock bags and store part in the fridge and part in the freezer.

You can find the YumWoof Perfect Dog Food Holistic Mix on this link below and have 5% off with the coupon YUMNILI.

Salmon Treats

These are soft treats as I use them to stuff her Yomp Ball or Kong and she loves them plus it keeps her busy.

  • 71/2 ounce can of salmon
  • Egg

½ cup of the YumWoof Perfect Dog Food Mix

1 cup of Oat flour to bind altogether

I mix all together, heat the oven to 350 Degrees, lay it flat on parchment paper on a cookie baking pan, bake it till ready. Switch off oven and let it cool down, I then cut and put in ziplock bags and store part in the fridge and part in the freezer.

Supplements

Nili might be young but I firmly believe that the younger we start with supplements the healthier she will be when older, so this is what I give her:

Nili gets the Real Mushrooms Daily Dawg, Mobility, Relax,  and Immune Supplements. They are all healthy, no chemicals phew so I have no worries plus she gobbles the chews down with no problem and all Organic

You can find them all on this Link :  https://shop.realmushrooms.com/?ref=488

And finally I must not forget to mention the Yomp Ball, which I love as it cleans her teeth while trying to get the treats out, it keeps her busy, which is good for the brain and she cleans it out each time. It is also hardy and does not break that easy and Nili being a hard chewer this has been a game changer.

You can find it on this link, Yomp Products

I got punished with a bath yesterday, I hate water, Nili

I am always open to any other suggestions if you have, sharing is caring and that is how we all learn, have a wonderful weekend and be safe and cool,

With a woof and love from Nili

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I might be old but I am healthy

Good Morning Friends,

We hope you are staying cool in the awful hot weather and of course drinking lots of water. Today I am going to share with you my secrets on why I am so healthy for an old girl and am very blessed to have a doting Mom like mine, who makes sure I get all the nutrients I need to stay healthy.

When Mom rescued me, I was living off kibbles yuck, and she immediately changed me over to home cooked food with lots of veggies and fruits. With aging she has added some supplements to my food to help my old body stay well and although it might sound crazy it seems to be working BOL. I also make her walk as much as possible as exercise is very important for her joints plus to keep her brain active I fill snuffle toys and make her work getting them out. It keeps her busy and therefore not sleeping the day away.

You can read more about how bad kibble is on this website and why raw food is healthier for your dogs

Food – In this house we do not believe in kibbles of any kinds, gross, they have fillers and other not good stuff in them. I like my home cooked food although Mom has introduced me to raw food also and we now alternate as changing my diet keeps me interested in food BOL. The company Mom gets my food from is Raw Paws Pet Food, great yum products, and worth checking out. The plus is the raw food has fish in it also, so I am getting the balanced diet I need.

Mushrooms – Mom has gone crazy about mushrooms but honestly there is a method to her madness. She loves supplements that are powder so she can mix it in with my food and that is what is so great about these. She mixes in the 5 Defenders and Lions Mane Mushroom Powder Extract into my food daily and I feel the difference and Mom sees the difference in my brain functions from the Lions Maane , for an old girl my brain is working well. I also get their calming supplement which relaxes me at night, and I am sleeping through the night which Mom is loving, BOL. The Mushroom company has now started supplements for my cat friends and as Mom says we must not forget to remind our humans that the hot chocolate is so good for us coffee lovers. Real Mushrooms are the best.

My old joint and muscles – Mom is determined to keep me mobile and walking without pain and thanks to this amazing formula it is working and I am as energetic as a you pup with the Hip and Joint Supplement plus muscle formula, I am a happy camper here.

Senior Supplement – All In from Vetericyn. This is one that keeps my insides healthy, relaxes me during the day and soothes my aches and pains if I have any. Mom started me on this supplement when I refused to take the one for my liver and since on it my liver levels have stabilized so if  Mom is happy I am happy. If you sign up for their emails you automatically get 10% off. They also have fantastic anti Itch products which I keep in the house for emergencies.

My Tushy – after my UTI and discussing with my vet as Mom realized us old ladies do not clean ourselves the way the young ones do so she bought some Tushy wipes and wipes my butt clean after each potty, it is keeping me clean and smelling good, what could be better than that. Plus, she is now using the facial wash on me so my face is nice and clean all the time as she cleans it with a microfiber towel so I am pampered daily. They have amazing other grooming products also, a must have in our house.

Shnoozing on my walk, life is good

Debating whether I want to walk or not

So, to all my friends, we might be aging slowly although Mom says its too fast for her but with all the above which Mom has discussed with her vet before giving to me I am plodding along, doing good, riding in my stroller, so life is good in the Layla neighborhood.  Please discuss with your vet before you change anything.

Have a safe weekend, stay as cool as possible!

With love and hugs

Layla
