Can I add meat to my dogs kibble?

????Protein builds protein.

????25 to 30 percent of the protein that your dog eats goes to support their skin and fur.

- dull, dry, and rough coatn can lead to:
- scaly, crusty, or abnormally thickened skin
- fur that grows back slowly
- brittle fur that breaks easily
- thin coat
- dull, dry and rough coat
- abnormal shedding cycles

⚖️While your kibble is complete and balanced, some dogs need more. So if your dog is predisposed to allergies and skin and coat issues, add some protein to your dog’s diet.

????Rotation and variety are important. You can easily find the following at your grocery store:
- beef
- chicken
- pork
- turkey
- lamb
- ducky
- bison

Given the choice I prefer to cut the meat as opposed to feeding “ground meat”. That way I know what I am feeding and I like feeding chunks to chew.

If you have an ethnic market, look for nose to tail parts
- heart
- tongue
- gizzards

????You can take the meat you’re preparing for yourself and share it with your dog:
- leave out the seasonings
- give them a portion up to 15% of their meal (subtract out the kibble)
- Sear the outside and serve
- Or cook low and slow if you want the meat
