Does anyone have any puppy food recipes?

Hi i wanna make my own dog food for my 13 week old German Shepherd Female puppy. She always is a picky eater and i heard people say dogs hardly refuse when u make your own dog food. Plus the recipes you guys can give me will they give a puppy nutrients to grow up strong and nice with a shiny coat. Also i need her to gain weight cause she came back from the vet like a walking skeleton. I could literally teach a science class with the amount of bones i saw. She suffered from Jaundice and her brother died so she luckily survived. Anyways she has put on some weight that you dont see the bones as much but she could do to get heavier. So will this food get her weight gain goal on track.





Thanks guys and gals.Does anyone have any puppy food recipes?

*****Puppy Rice and Meat Dinner





Ingredients:


1 cup meat -- *see Note


4 cups rice


1 cup vegetables -- *see Note


1 tablespoon vegetable oil 2 cloves garlic


Preparation %26amp; Cooking


Boil all ingredients together in a large pot. Be sure that pork is cooked all the way through. Cool food off and serve.


Note: choose one: hamburger, ground pork (cook all the way through), ground chicken, ground turkey, or liver





Note: choose one or more of these: sweet potato, regular potato, green beans, carrots, spinach





For Variety: Noodles and Meat


Same ingredients as Rice and Meat Dinner, except for this: Boil 1 pound noodles separately. Mix noodles in with meat and vegetable mixture when ready to serve. Italian and Chinese noodles will both work.





Try to substitute mackerel (a fish) for meat in some meals. I usually buy the canned stuff which has little bones in it. They can eat these bones. A little of the canned stuff goes a long way, though - it has a lot of salt!





*****Puppy Meat Loaf





This excellent recipe was developed by Pat Peterson (Mrs. Chell Peterson), a breeder of German Shepherd dogs in Minnesota. It's delicious, nutritious, and easy to make too. Be sure to check with your veterinarian before you change your pet's diet. Show her this recipe and only use it as a treat or supplement to the AAFCO approved food you purchase.


If your pet is allergic to wheat, leave out the bread and wheat germ. Increase the oatmeal amount to 12 cups and add oat bran. This recipe would also work well with ground turkey or chicken.





INGREDIENTS:


1 pound ground beef


1 (24-ounce) container cottage cheese


4 eggs


1/2 cup dry milk powder


1/4 cup wheat germ


8 slices oatmeal bread, crumbled


8 cups cooked oatmeal


4 cups cooked brown rice


PREPARATION:


In very large mixing bowl, combine ground beef and cottage cheese; blend well. Add eggs, milk powder, and wheat germ and mix. Then add the crumbled bread, oatmeal, and brown rice and mix well.


Divide among ten small (5-1/2'; x 3-1/2';) aluminum loaf pans.





Place on a cookie sheet and bake at 350 degrees F for 1 hour. Cool at room temperature for 1 hour, then promptly refrigerate. This food is perishable, so don't store it in the fridge longer than three days.


We always froze all but one of the loaves. To defrost, let them stand in the refrigerator overnight. Crumble the meatloaf into a bowl, drizzle with some water, and microwave for 20-30 seconds until warm. Make sure the food doesn't have hot spots after microwaving, as your pet will gobble this up!





Make sure to discard any food that has been sitting out for 30 minutes or longer.
