New Dog Food Cook Book Written To Provide Complete and Balanced Meals for Dogs

Huntington Beach (I-Newswire) December 11, 2011 - Fresh foods are the prime ingredients used to create meals that are safe and nutritionally balanced for a lifetime of your canine buddy. Anyone who can use measuring cups and spoons, a pot and a stove can easily prepare truly wholesome food for their pet family.

A balanced diet is essential for the optimal health of dogs. As more families opt for home-prepared food for their fur families, finding balanced recipes becomes an almost impossible task. Lauten comments that “malnutrition from unbalanced diets is a real threat to our pet families.”

A healthy dog requires a fully balanced diet and research has shown that fully 80% of published recipes are unbalanced. It is impossible for a consumer to determine which recipes are balanced and safe to feed for the life of the animal. Dr. Lauten and Mr. Lascola have solved that problem.

The “Back to Basics Volume 1, Whole Foods for Healthy Dogs” cookbook can be trusted to contain only nutritionally balanced recipes that meet federal guidelines established by AAFCO and NRC.

Grain-free recipes are included, along with the specific amounts to use of hypoallergenic vitamins and minerals to balance the meals. No artificial colors or preservatives will be found. To finish off a meal for your 4-legged friend, California K9 Kitchen has added some great treat recipes. If you can follow a recipe, you can make very nutritious meals for your dog(s).

Fresh whole foods in balanced recipes can improve a dog’s health and vitality. Maintaining proper body weight can increase the expected life span of your 4-legged friend, and delay the onset of typical signs of aging. Home-cooking provides less calorie dense meals than dry kibbled food, increasing the ability to maintain proper body weight.

With 10 years of experience, Susan Lauten PhD, of Pet Nutrition Consulting provides nutrition advice, recipes, and support to veterinary specialists and pet families to improve the healthy lives of pets and to provide nutritional support for medical treatment of illness.
