Recipe for Homemade Food

There are many recipes to help dogs with cancer. With the research I did in searching for books from the library and talking to my vet, there was one common finding. Lots of protein and low carbs- cancer feeds off of carbs. It is best to consult your vet before giving your dog any homemade recipe, vitamins, supplements, etc. Bo loved the homemade food and maintained his weight during his cancer fight.
He had originally lost 10 pounds. He was 138 before cancer and stayed at 128 throughout his 7 month fight. His coat was shiney and soft. But my main concern was to boost his immune system with this recipe. A healthy immune system helps fight cancer.
Remember, I personally decided to treat his cancer in a natural way. Each person dealing with pet cancer has their own views on this. I hope you are following along because you are interested in other options to treat your pet's cancer besides chemotherapy and radiation.

I also tried to buy organic vegetables without pesticides or chemicals.

This recipe is based on a 130 pound dog.

Bo's Healthy Eating Recipe- by Jodie
5lbs. Perdue turkey (5 packs). Not lean turkey. More fat the better.
3-4 stalks celery
3 organic tomatoes
Handful of Brussels sprouts or a small head of cabbage
Broccoli head
Large handful of green beans
Handful of dark, leafy greens
4 eggs
5 teaspoons garlic from the jar or 5 fresh garlic cloves crushed
1 Tablespoon of fresh rosemary, ground
1/3 cup hulled flaxseeds

Cook turkey and do not drain fat. After cooking turkey add garlic, raw egg yolks, rosemary and flaxseeds. Mix.
Steam green beans, tomatoes, brussel sprouts, celery, leafy greens & broccoli. Chop finely & add to turkey mixture. (Dogs can not digest raw veggies).
Cook egg whites & add to turkey mixture.
Stir all and add about 1 cup of mixture to a zip lock sandwich bag. Pat bags flat.
Store bags in the freezer.
Thaw 2 bags overnight in the fridge for the next morning’s meal.

Added benefits: Add a Tablespoon of fresh parsley, a couple Tablespoons of cottage cheese or organic yogurt and 1 1/4 teaspoons of Carlson Fish Oil for each feeding on top of homemade food. Lemon flavor is fine.

Add dry kibble to homemade food such as Orijen 6 Fish or EVO Reduced Fat. Both have low carbs and high protein which is good for cancer dogs. Cancer feeds off of carbs!

Bo was given this mixture twice a day. The mixture makes about 20-24 bags of food.

Supplements added to homemade and dry food:
1 teaspoon (twice a day) of Vitamin C powder.
5 drops (twice a day) of pure Vitamin E oil.
1 tablet (twice a day) of L-Arginine.
Several drops of Constitutional Blend (twice a day) (purchased from Dancing Paws Wellness Center in Richfield, OH). It’s similar to Essiac Tea.
CAS Options tablets- 3 a day. (Dancing Paws Wellness Center).
Hoxsey & Boneset Liquid Herb (Dancing Paws Wellness Center).
Cosequin Double Strength tablet once a day to maintain joints/cartlidge.

These web sites helped as I did research for my cancer dog. There are many more out there, but these were some of my favorites.
