If you feed her a homemade meal, you must put a considerable amount of research into creating her diet. Off the top of my head, I would recommend you to read a wide range of books before you make a concrete decision as to what kind of diet you want your dog to eat:Originally Posted by mypoodle
Dr. Pitcairn's Complete Guide to Natural Health for Dogs and Cats by Richard Pitcairn and Susan Hubble Pitcairn
Natural Nutrition for Dogs and Cats: The Ultimate Diet by Kymythy Schultze (my favorite!)
Give Your Dog a Bone by Ian Billinghurst
Raw Meaty Bones by Tom Lonsdale
I own the first three books and I have to say that Schultze's diet has appealed to me the most.

There is a plethora of information on homemade diets, but please read each and every detail with a grain of salt. There will be differences of opinions and feeding regimens so it's up to you to decide which diet is best.
IMO, you can provide your pup with a high quality diet through a higher grade kibble such as:
Innova/Innova EVO
California Natural
Flint River Ranch
Solid Gold
Wysong
Wellness
Pinnacle
Fromm
Azmiras
Canidae
Chicken Soup for the Dog Lover's Soul
Natural Balance
There are many more so you should check out Jessika's link to give you an idea of what to look for.





. I've tried every kind on the market. She hardly eats it, so I feed her from the table, but I worry about doing it because I was told it's not healthy for her.
