The Ultimate Homemade Dog & Puppy Food Recipe Book

A couple of years ago, I began researching different sources (holistic DVMs, Nutritionists, everyday YouTube pet owners-which I don’t recommend) in an effort to feed my gang of dogs complete and balanced homemade fresh food. After deciding to take the next step, I purchased a book authored by a popular, well-known, knowledgeable/qualified DVM. I read the entire book-even the section on cat nutrition and recipes (LOL). I love educational information and I absolutely soak it up. However, I finished the book and was anxious…or more accurately, discouraged and defeated. I’m a Registered Nurse, seasoned in the calculations and administration of medications and treatments for critically and catastrophically ill patients throughout my career. That said, the information in the book was total over-load with complicated mathematical nutritional chemistry. Not user-friendly, in the least.
A little over a year later, I’m getting this gradually growing, guttural feeling regarding feeding my guys kibble. With all of my heart, I do believe kibble is bad…even the best kibble is not as bad as the worst, but is bad nonetheless, just in a lesser degree. So, I began researching-again. And I found Cam on YouTube. I watched his vids and subscribed to his channel…went to his website…found this recipe book. What a godsend! Comprehensive and educational in the right amount, ESPECIALLY for novice folks like me, just starting out on this adventure to make my dog’s healthier via quality nutrition. After reading Cam’s book-every page, every word, then multiple reviews of sections relevant to me/my gang- I felt educated, informed, and emboldened. Earlier this week, I made my first batch. My gang of four-Barkley, male Hairless Chinese Crested (10.5 y.o.), Frankie and Charlie Bird, 2 male American Hairless Terriers (9 y.o. and 5 y.o.), and Maggie Mae, a female Belgian Malinois (2 y.o.) all LOVE their homemade fresh food. While feeding fresh homemade food is more expensive than some cheap kibble, it’s cheaper than alleged quality kibble (which “quality kibble” in my opinion, is oxymoronic). Cam authored this book to help dog parents be confident and successful in achieving and providing a complete and balanced nutritional diet for their beloved dogs. And that is exactly what this recipe book has done for me and my gang.
My gratitude for this recipe book is infinite.

I have a 3 month old puppy and have been following the early stage puppy recipe, the little one loves it! Will be switching to the late stage puppy one very soon.

My partner and I are thrilled to see our Bobby has been licking her plate since we started making and giving her the Late Stage Puppy Cooked Food (1) from Cam's book.

When we got her, we changed from Lily's Kitchen Food to Different Dog, and meal times were difficult because she didn't want to eat at all.
But now, we are confident
she is having a balanced diet with Cam's recipe and the Multivitamins. It makes us smile to see her enjoying her food 😊.
Thank you, Cam!

We were due to rehome an older puppy and wanted to get the nutrition right - my research lead me to The Dog Nutritionist. This guide was so helpful in not planning ahead, but also bestowed a lot of knowledge in general about balancing a dog's diet with real food. So many great ideas and suggestions here and laid out very clearly too. From dot I had a feeding plan and it feels great to know you are really doing your best for your furry friend.

After being in a bit of a spin about what’s best to feed my pup as there is so much conflicting information out there but I just knew I wanted to get away from feeding her kibble. We’ve been following the raw recipes and my pup has never been happier and healthier! Her coat is much softer and shinier, she’s eating over twice as much food now compared to what she was on kibble which seems to keep her a lot fuller for long and she loves the taste of it all which is always a bonus!
