Help for starting dog on home cooked veg diet...

[Guest guest]

Hi All,

 

I know that a similiar issue has come up before. I checked through the archives,

but they lead to more questions. One of our dogs has been diagnosed with

Megaesophagus. Which seems to be an enlarged esophagus, resulting in difficulty

eating to say the least. We have switched him to the vet recommended can food.

It is supposed to be bland and easy to digest. And since starting this special

routine where our dog has to sit for 30mins after eating or drinking our other

dog is suddenly sick also. Jealous for the additional attention, perhaps. But

now she won't eat the other food, and almost for emphasis has begun getting sick

herself. We are now giving her the special food to help her also, but as they

are both very large dogs, this will add up very quickly. Almost as much as the

vet bill (we are still trying to swallow that). Our dogs are approx. 8 yo.

 

Any good ideas on homemade dog food? I remember this coming up when I first

joined on, and I made an ignorant comment, immediately wishing to retract it. I

understand that dogs have very specific needs and want to take good care of them

for their remaining time with us. Any advice is appreciated.

 

Thanks,

 

Janeen
