Step 1:

Cooking Turkey for Dogs

Put ground turkey in pan- cover in water. Cook 20 minutes.

Alternatively cook the whole turkey bird by roasting it. Approximate cook time at 350 degrees 3 hours.

It is important that all bones are removed from the cooked turkey.

Let the turkey cool than dice the turkey into bit size chunks. Shredding it is also fine. The turkey is cooked when the juices inside run clear.

Step 2:

Choose plain canned pumpkin with no added sugar or spices. Ok to substitute squash cook it to make it digestible.

Step 3:

Add Corn to Turkey Dog Food Recipe

Place a small to medium pot on the stove and fill it with no more than 1 or 2 inches of water. Bring the water to a rolling boil. It’s important not to put enough water in the pot to completely cover the corn. Add the frozen loose corn. Let the corn cook until tender and heated thru. Never give a dog a corn cob - it can become a choking hazard.

Step 4:

When the meat, pumpkin and corn are cool to touch you can add the Azestfor nutritional supplements.

Storage

The recipe can be prepared in large batches and frozen. It will keep for up to a year in the freezer, or one week in the fridge.

Freezing vitamins preserves their potency. I would recommend portioning the food into meal size servings before freezing it.

To defrost a frozen meal – put it in the fridge overnight.

Feeding Guidelines:
We suggest dividing the daily amount into two servings, one in the morning and one in the evening. Every dog’s nutritional requirements are a little bit different due to age & amount of exercise. If your dog is losing weight, increase food by 1/4 cup a day, if they are gaining weight reduce accordingly.

5 lbs - 1 cup (7 oz) per day

10 lbs -1 3/4 cups (12.4 oz) per day

15 lbs - 2 1/3 cups (17 oz) per day

  • They say here on the website, if you want to add the vitamins at serving time, to use 1.25 tsp. Per cup of food. I have an 8 pound Maltese. I’m starting with 1/2 tsp. Per cup this first week, then I’ll malt with 1 tsp. Per cup next week. My question: does it contain taurine?

  • We bought the vegetable based formula from Amazon and ca’t figure out how much to feed our 4 dogs or how to use it. I make their food using ground turkey breat, peas, carrots, 1 egg, and brow rice. I bake it like a meatloaf and grind it up because 3 don’t have very many teeth. The are 16 years – 4.5 lbs, 14 years 6.5 lbs, 12 years old – 6.5 lbs and 9 years old 6 lbs. They are chihuahua mixes. Do we sprinkle the mixture on their food – how much do we use. Two have heart murmurs so could you tell me the salt content? Thanks.
