It’s summer, it smells like the holidays and its great heat waves … Offer your dog a fresh and balanced diet to hydrate it as much as possible while giving it healthy food. Our chef got up early this morning to concoct delicious recipes specially developed for your pet. Put on your cooking apron and start making a delicious dog food which will make your little companion very happy.
To feed your dog well and offer him a good meal, follow the basic proportions, namely, ⅓ protein (red or white meat, raw or cooked, fish, raw egg yolk or cooked egg white), ⅓ starchy foods well done, ⅓ raw or cooked or mixed vegetables. The amount to feed your adult dog will vary depending on his age and weight. Nevertheless, the rule considers 40 grams per kg of dog per day. For a growing puppy, count twice its daily ration divided into several meals.

2. Summer chicken pot pie
What you need in the fridge:

If you do not have time to do your organic vegetable market, do not hesitate to make your pâté with frozen vegetables which also keep their vitamins well.
3. Pâté of the little fisherman
What you need in the fridge:
- Canned tuna and / or sardines

Opt for natural canned tuna without seasoning as well as sardines in water. After preparing your semolina (medium grain), cut zucchini and leeks and fry them in a pan with a little vegetable oil. Reserve your grated carrots raw or cooked, then mix the salad with all the ingredients, let cool before serving. We will almost eat it!

Buy ground beef from your butcher (fresh steak, heart, liver). Immerse your pasta in boiling water and let it cool well. Cut your eggplants into small cubes and steam them. Mix cold foods by adding olive oil and a teaspoon of brewer’s yeast. Full of vitamins for the day in the sun!
5. Old Fashioned Pork Meat
What you need in the fridge:
- Pork meat
mixed vegetables
- Rice for dog
- Raw egg yolk
- Salmon oil
Mix tender pork fillets and offal, a real treat for your dog. Make a small macedonia where the carrots, green beans, zucchini and peas will duel. Add starch like rice, a raw egg yolk (even better if it comes straight out of your henhouse) and drizzle with salmon oil.
Trick ! You can replace pork with quality white meat such as veal or poultry. And if you don’t have time to cook, that’s okay, offer your dog a delicious, whole grain-free dog food enriched with white meat and superfoods.
