This is loosely based on Dr.Judy Morgan, DVM's 'Pup Loaf'
Raw 'loaf' formula:
8 # grass-fed raw beef &/or red game meat(venison, elk, Bison, etc - sometimes with poultry, rarely with pork),
1# raw organ meat (kidney, brains, glands, etc)
3/4 - 1# sardines, mackerel, or salmon
1/2# liver
1/2C raw, dried, ground eggshells from above chickens
1C psyllium husk fiber (or oat bran, if the psyllium husk fiber is unavailable)
1/2C mushroom powder (Shirakawa, reishi, lions mane...)
1C flax seed
2 heads garlic
12oz fresh or frozen blueberries
12 oz fresh or frozen cranberries
1 -2# kale, broccoli, cauliflower, etc
1/4# fresh ginger
1# celery
1# carrots
1bunch parsley
1# pumpkin
1/2# bananas
2T cinnamon
Gently cook veggies, until tender, cool. Combine everything well, portion, and freeze, for simple, wet food. But, for several reasons, I dehydrate and portion @ 24g/meal, for my little cavalier. This way, it's also shelf stable & convenient, travels well, etc.
