How refreshing to see a vet encouraging homecooking for dogs.. & actual dog stews too!! Thank you!! I have faced so much judgement from vets for doing exactly this 😔 My dogs are in amazing health!

I do the same for mine.

You are the best I watch your every videos my dog use to have so many problems with skin and her ears but when I saw your videos I started cooking for my dog and she has no more problems so thank you for sharing your videos

Ty for all your support Mr. Martinez. I learned how to treat an Anal Gland Abscess using one of your videos. My dog has made a full recovery and hasn't had this issue since. You're one of the most awesome vets I've ever seen.

Will Stewart hi , I know this has been a couple years ago, but my lil 12yr old has an Anal Gland Absess also, do you know where I can see the video or do you remember what I need to do for him? Thank you so much. GOD Bless 😊

My dog kept having either severe allergic reactions or severe stomach upset/diarrhea from dog foods. I tried over 40 brands before giving up and just cooking her home made food. She has no allergies, no vomiting or diarrhea with homemade.

Thank you for this and advices!

Thanks so much love from London

Love your videos your a life saver !!! Keep up the great work .

This is my third video of yours that I've watched. I am in love with you! (Not in a weird, stocker way) I really enjoy your demeanor and the way you present yourself and the information. Easy, laid-back, and REAL. SUBSCRIBED!

Very informative and just what I was looking for, thanks! 👍

I love your videos. They are informative and you are fun to listen to.

Your my fav, doc!

great video!

You are such a caring Vet, Dr. Greg .... I just love your video's. Smiles from Rhonda in Kansas.

"human food" lol! I always find this hilarious because I hear it soooo much. Let's see, what did dogs eat before the invention of kibble? Hmmm? They ate real food.

I have become a very big fan of yours and I am starting to cook for my dog by following your videos. When you cook that 1/2 chicken with potato and green beans what temp to you set your crock pot and how long to you cook it! My mother had a poodle that she fed only Italian food to and also coffee. I told her that she was hurting her dog, the dog lived a healthy 18 years !Thanks doc for all you do!

Thank you for doing these videos, I am much more a see it learner, but I do have two of your books including the one you just spoke about. Just started doing all this the last month when my dog was diagnosed with bladder stones.

+Greg Martinez DVM they did not know. but she had a bunch. He wants her on the prescription food for stones.

I cook a soup for my dog every week , with chicken and carrot, lettuce, rice, bell peppers, broccoli. I just boil it all together and that's it. She loves it. She also gets the heads of the chicken bones every day from her soup.

what about for cats?

THANK YOU, THANK YOU!! GRRR, ARR, AROO (that,s Charlie dog sayin thanx!) I've been doing something similar his whole life (9yrs) . Chicken breast, stock, plus all the vegies you mention. However, I was using about 50% kibble cause I didn't want to miss any essentials. The info you provided will allow us to tell Pedigree to stuff it (plus I heard it too may be made in China!) One thing you might have added to make this video purfect is a word of caution to the ambitious owner - all the things that Shouldn't go in! Onion,garlic,potatoes, and of course chocolate! Now that he,ll be eating even healthier I won't feel so guilty about him having his nightly cigar and highball....

Thanks!! Sounds like he has a good life!

I’m not sure if this is the same as BARF food, but it sounds like it. I fed my dog BARF from the moment I got him (recommended by his trainer and vet). He was on it for 5 years when problems started. By this time I was with a new vet who ran some tests and found out he was suffering from early stage Rickets. So I switched the dog to high quality dog food for dogs with allergies (just in case). Within a few weeks he was much better and quite in love with his new food. My vet said that he had seen this before in other dogs on the same type of diet. This happened 15 years ago and there wasn’t much info out there on how to make dog food. I’m curious if anyone has had similar problems, or if thing have changed?

will eggs shells work instead of the bone meal supplement?

I usually just watch your videos but I have a question. Just wanted to know if you new a holistic vet somewhere close to San Francisco. I usually go to San Francisco vet specialist which are wonderful people just to pricey for me right now. They did do a wonderful job with my 12 year old rotti. I now have a rescue and searching out a VET. Thanks if you know of a good one.

Hello Dr. Martinez. I have a question for you and I'd love it if you could answer it. My cat (she's 4 months old) was extremely sick. I believe she found a puddle of shampoo water after I'd given my other cat a shower and before I could clean it. A day later she was seizuring and in few hours became extremely dehydrated. I took her to the vet and he gave her cortisone, atropine and vitamin B, plus some antibiotics just in case. She is now under Gardénal, an antiepileptic, and her seizures are very rare, triggered mostly by fear or stress. After she got better I noticed that she can't meow. It has faded away and you can only hear a bit towards the end. Could this be an after effect of the seizures (they are extremely mild now by the way, almost as if she stops recognizing anyone and shakes in fear for a minute or so, and then goes back to normal) or should I be concerned? there is no palpable growth on her neck, and other than the seizures, hasn't suffered from anything else.

I have 2 questions... 1. How much to serve of this recipe? 2. Best way to store it, if we are to store it? Really love your videos, I just subbed. I also plan to buy both books. Thank you!

Where are you mr. Martinez? We didnt hear you since loooong time

Dr. Martinez would this diet be good for a Dobermann as I heard something about peas and DCM. How would I know how to start feeding this kind of diet as a puppy and then as an adult. What I mean is the specific quantities.

Grey, my dog is possibly beginning of Ple. We are getting ultra sound wed. Do you have any specific recipes?

Tried to get a copy of the book feed your pet to avoid the vet but says it’s not available?

Hi, I have a 6 month old standard poodle. When I got her the breeder put her on Taste of the Wild Boar, dry kibble. I got some taste of the Wild chicken wet food and suddenly had a vomiting puppy. The vet I saw said I was using too many proteins. I stopped and until yesterday she had not vomited in a month. If I make your food do you think it will be ok for her sensitive tummy? Thank you.

How many servings does this recipe make?

You should do a recipe with venison as the meat. Would deer liver be an ok replacement for chicken livers? I live in northern Michigan and hunt deer for my family's main source of meat.

You never said how much or if this is one dogs weekly dinners! Is this A meal for so many dogs you have or is this divided into 7days, etc.

Thank you Doctor Greg! I always glean something from these videos. Our kids are all seniors, are there any tweaks you would make to this recipe for them?

This is pretty low fat, but you could double the amount of veggies and or rice to lower the protein a bit.

Can someone pls help me...? I want to start making dog food at home. I dog has allergies. So wich meat would be best. I was told most dogs have allergy to chicken. Also which supplements should I add in the food? I have a 65 lb lab and a 30 lb spanial. How do I determine the quantity to feed them?? I lost...

bone meal? where can you purchase that? couldn't you use the egg shells just clean and grind into a powder...heck! you should also consume the ground egg shell... just asking because I'm not sure I could well...find bone meal or afford it too. thank you sooo much for sharing and also demonstrating.

Cat food is harder, cats are less omnivorous than dogs and you need to be careful about making sure that all the required nutrients are present in the correct proportions.

Let me ask you this: what do Wild dogs and or Wolves eat in the wild? It’s raw, that’s what’s best BUT many ppl are squimish about giving raw as it seems so unnatural to us (even though it wasn’t always) or dogs with autoimmune diseases may be more susceptible to parasites, etc. However, a dogs digestive tract is built to ingest it, digest it and poop it out quick removing time from parasites getting established

Wait, what about the home Made cat food? Why always about dog?😑

Dude, those burgers are filled with additives and spices! Don't give that to your dogs!!
