Quick & Easy Doggie Dinner – Soopa Pets When I’m in a hurry, this recipe is great because it’s simple to make and it’s a completely balanced meal. You can cook this or if you feed raw then simply leave in the fridge to set. Cut into portions and freeze or chill for up to 3 days. Grab a portion from the freezer if you’re in a hurry and need a dog meal on the go. I’ve included sardines as they are a great source of natural calcium and rich in omega 3, DHA and EPA which health support brain health. Oats are a tasty source of fibre and great for your dog’s digestion. I buy the gluten free oat variety which are gentler on doggie’s tummy. I’ve used grated butternut squash as it’s Lily’s favourite but feel free to add your dog’s preferred grated vegetables. I love the benefits of natural kelp powder but you can add whatever supplements you like to the mix before cooking. Ingredients: 500g turkey mince 1 cup gluten free oats 1 organic egg 1 tablespoon melted coconut oil 1 cup grated b...

I love adding carrot as they have many powerful health benefits including anti-inflammatory properties whilst also fantastic for your dog’s eye health. A study in 2005 showed that dogs that ate orange vegetables daily like carrots reduced the risk of developing bladder cancer by 70%!
