I have a 2 year old yorkie and a 6 month weimaraner. I have them both on good dog foods, but i am interested in adding more to their diet. I would like them to have a variety, that provides the best nutrition. What types of oils are best to add to their food? what about any fruits or vegetables, anything natural and holistic that would contribute to their good health! thank you!! |

when i learned my Weim had allergies the vet told me i could feed her Chicken and rice (homemade) or to go by some chicken and rice dry dog food. I have also heard that Carrots are good for dogs, but stay away from grapes and raisins, heard they were toxic to dogs. |

Wild Salmon oil is the best oil to add to a dogs diet. |

I would recommend carrots, whole grain wild rice, cauliflower, apples, spinach, cranberries, there are a ton of options! IF you have a Pet Planet store in your area ask them about their multi supplement for your dogs food! |

Flax seeds are great for there coat & general well being. I add olive oil & garlic once a day to all my dogs diners. The garlic helps prevent fleas & is great for their immune system & olive oil is good for their bowels & coat. Grated carrot raw is great & all my dogs love it & it helps prevent cancer. Sea weed meal makes their coats shinny & adds energy for my older dogs I find. Also I feed raw chicken wings or necks at least 3 times a week for cleaning teeth. |

Ah a person after my own heart. I use salmon oil. I use dried kelp. I don't use any commercial dry food. I use ground meat and raw blenderized vegetables. All these things have improved the looks of my dogs and many people have commented on them. They just shouldn't have any things like grapes or mushrooms, or onions (there are other things too) that dogs shouldn't have. Carrots and broccoli, spinach, all good. Yogurt or probiotics good. apple(no seeds) and oranges good. |

You should add cod liver oil and do research on a raw diet such as BARF. |
