I make my own Dog Stew

  • It's cheaper than Dog Food
  • I know exactly what's in it
  • With an Instant Pot, bones get softened so pets eat the whole animal

Pick up a Rotisserie Chicken at Costco or Sam's club. Right around $5

Add 4 cups of water, and pressure cook for 30 minutes. The bones will soften, so you pet can safely eat chicken bones - they are moistened and crumble

Take lid off, take your hamburger smasher and smash up the water and chicken, to break it up

Add 3 stalks of broccoli Add 3 carrots, cut into small pieces Add 1 peeled Sweet Potato (cut into small pieces) 1/2 cup Pinto Beans 1/2 cup Brown Rice (whole grain rice) Other veggies you may want are green beans, cauliflower (I think this adds a bad odor), corn, peas

I chose to add left-over bacon, and some slices of ham to the mix. Pretty sure dog's universally love bacon.

NO ONIONS (dog's don't tolerate onions very well).

General goal is ~30% protein, ~30% Carbs and ~30% fats
DO NOT ADD SALT - dogs don't tolerate salt like we do, there is plenty of spices in that Rotissere Chicken.

This is less than $20, and should provide about 2 gallons of Dog Stew; I feed two medium dogs (~24 lbs each) and this lasts a little over 2 weeks. The only thing in it that wouldn't be in what we eat, are the WHOLE CHICKEN and bones.

If you feel the need to add multi-vitamins, figure your dose and divide by the servings and your dog's weight. Scle accordingly, but I don't believe they are necessary. It's a HELL of a lot better than what you are going to get from China.

I freeze half of it, so after one big container is gone, there is a backup that stays fresh in the freezer.
