Another thing about eggs is that if you feed them it is very important to feed the whole egg. Something in the white is bad and takes something from the dogs, but the yolk contains enough of whatever it is to make up for it. And if that wasn't completely vague then I don't know what is, LOL Sorry I just woke up from a nap and my head is a little fuzzy.
And I think homemade diets are great. If I ever get around to finding a good source of chicken I will switch my dogs to completely raw. As it is now they get fed kibble during the week and raw on the weekend.
The calcium/phosphorus ratio is very important. It is why you are supposed to feed raw meaty bones, not just raw meat. I *think* the raw meaty bones are supposed to be 60% bone 40% meat.
People that sometimes give a meal that consists of more meat will even it up by adding crushed eggshells to the food.
