A GREAT starter book for a beginning canine cook... July 9, 2007 24 out of 24 found this review helpful
I bought about four dog food cookbooks at once, after the big dog food scandal, and this was the simplest and the most clearly understood. It made cooking for the dog fun, which is important, since you will be doing this a LOT! I've learned about all the various things they can and cannot eat from the internet, and I've labored through the charts and graphs in other books, but when the food bowl is empty and I'm getting the *big stare*, this book is where I run to for inspiration. Check in the freezer section of your meat department for ground turkey. Also, throwing a pound or two of hamburger in the slow cooker with a bag of frozen vegetables and some brown rice is a definite time saver, plus much safer than some nasty ground who-know's-what from an unregulated factory. I've been getting complaints that the dog food smells better than the people food. Cooking for your pets will be one of those life-time long learning experiences, but this is a great place to start.
P.S. My dog is healthier now, and knows I love him, as well...
Best of them ALL June 15, 2007 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
As a concerned 'mom', I appreciated the veterinary research that went into ALL of these recipes, but my dog, Stella, LOVES the TASTE. Her tap, tap, tap on the laminate in the kitchen as I stir the ingredients is a 'paws up' salute to Ms. Moore's obvious knowledge of what appeals to canine taste buds. As a credentialed Library Media Teacher, I'm used to looking through reviews and researching what I purchase. This time around I was confident in the safety of the suggestions but the final judge was Stella-the-dog. After our success with this title, I bought four other books by Arden Moore and am now devouring her latest, "The Dog Behavior Answer Book".
Good but.... June 2, 2007 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I think a book should have dailly suggested portions based on your pets weight and breed and this one does not have that. Being that your main concern should be your friends health and weight. Other wise it has some very good info on what work.
bow wow tail wagging good! May 30, 2007 9 out of 10 found this review helpful
When we make these recipes for our dog he gobbles his meal up faster than we can eat. He would only eat his dry store boughten dog food if we would tease him to eat. Now when he smells us reheating it in the microwave he is there waiting to eat. What a nice change. He also sits patiently waiting when we are making the food somehow he knows it is for him. We have tried beef, chicken and turkey recipes and they are easy to make and use regular ingredients found in your kitchen. The food recipes and the treats recipes have all been enjoyed by our dog. What a surprise who would have thought he would like broccoli, green beans, or cauliflower. We are trying the recipe with sardines this week. Would highly recommend this book.
Good useful book. May 28, 2007 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
This book is a valuable asset to anyone requiring information on reasonable recipes for dogs.
