- Reviewed in Canada on February 24, 2025Verified PurchaseOur last three dogs refused to eat commercial dog food, and we were wasting 100s if not 1000s of dollars every month trying to find anything they would eat. I started just cooking extra portions of our healthy meals, and they loved it, but I knew there was more to it than feeding them human food. This book is exactly what I needed. Written in a clear, accessible, well-organized style, it provides the background about dog nutrition, many recipes to choose from, and even a helpful 30-day meal plan, along with checklists and shopping lists. We keep chickens, so the tip about adding ground egg shells to meals for calcium is a win:win for us. There are also tips on other supplements, like a multivitamin, to make sure your dog gets all the nutrition he needs. I’ll be referring back to this book over and over again. Recommended!

Whether your pet needs a regular diet or has special dietary requirements, this book covers it all.

The instructions are straightforward and easy to follow, which is a huge plus when you're juggling a busy schedule.

I was pleasantly surprised by how easy it was to incorporate these meals into my routine, and I am sure that my dogs will love them.

It certainly makes me feel better about what I'm feeding my pets!
- Reviewed in Canada on April 9, 2025Verified PurchaseI just finished reading this yesterday, and I can't wait to start preparing meals for Daisy, my dog. The recipes appear balanced and simple, and I appreciate that they adhere to AAFCO guidelines. Knowing that I'll be giving her real, wholesome food prepared with love is incredibly comforting.
- Reviewed in Canada on February 25, 2025Verified PurchasePacked with nutritious, allergy-friendly recipes, it offers a feeding guide and meal plans tailored to dogs of all sizes. This book is perfect for anyone looking to improve their dog's diet with homemade, wholesome food. As stated in the book, it is important to add the vitamins and supplements recommended by this vet.
- Reviewed in Canada on July 16, 2025Verified PurchaseClear, vet-backed, and incredibly helpful. The recipes are simple, nutritious, and my dog has more energy and a shinier coat already. Loved the allergy-friendly options and slow-cooker bonuses. Bonus treats and travel tips were a thoughtful touch. You ɴDz’t go back to store-bought after this.
- Reviewed in Canada on June 16, 2025Verified PurchaseSo far I have just looked through the book quickly. It seems to be well laid out. Cant wait to use a receipt tonight.
Also just to add loved that the carrier put my book between my doors.
- Reviewed in Canada on October 14, 2024Verified PurchaseThis book claims its recipes meet AAFCO standards as a selling point, but these recipes are too simple to be complete. You get to the recipes and they only have 3-4 ingredients max and are extremely high in carbs (as high at 50% of the recipe). Please don’t be fooled by the cover and book description. These recipes are missing so many essential nutrients like Thiamine, Iodine, Zinc. There is no way a vet would have wrote this book. I looked up Dr. Samantha Reed on Google and I couldn’t find anything about her. Huge disappointment!
- Reviewed in Canada on April 8, 2025Verified PurchaseIf you're a dog parent who wants to feed their dogs nutritious, vet-approved meals at home, I recommend purchasing this book. The recipes are simple, and packed with wholesome ingredients that make me feel great about what I’m putting in my dog’s bowl!

5.0 out of 5 stars Love in Every Bite
Verified PurchaseThe first time I saw my dog wag his tail before I even reached the bowl, I knew this book had changed something. The Authentic Homemade Dog Food Cookbook isn’t just about recipes—it’s about trust. It gave me confidence to move beyond bags and into the kitchen, where I now cook with purpose and peace of mind. The meals are simple, the guidance clear, and the results speak for themselves: a healthier, happier pup who devours every bite. If you’ve ever wondered what’s really in your dog’s food, this book is the answer—and the beginning of something better.
- Arlindo FranciscoReviewed in Brazil on July 15, 2025
5.0 out of 5 stars Just one problem.
Verified PurchaseThe thing that is good about the book is that it's not just a recipe book; it also explains a lot. You need to know what you're really doing because of this, as it's about a Dog, and even by age, his body is different.
It has some interesting information at the beginning of it. Still, one thing I will point out is that I had to download the Kindle app on my pc to open the book, it didn't open in the browser like the other books I have. Just so you know, in case you have this problem as well, is not just you.
- MarkReviewed in India on April 18, 2025
5.0 out of 5 stars thoughtful recipes
Verified PurchaseFirst of all, this book is going to be Dann useful for me as I always buy dog food which I feel is nit healthy. the recipes in the book are easy to do and can be made from available materials at home. the step by step instructions are a also very good. this coming from a doctor gives more credibility. surely it will save me a lot of money. one thing I noticed it my dog did not like the food which may be it was homemade like we also do.
- MarkReviewed in the United Kingdom on July 15, 2025
5.0 out of 5 stars Good homemade dog food book
Verified PurchaseReally good homemade dog food book if you care about your pet and don't want to feed commercial kibble. The book explains the benefits of homemade food and all the macro nutrients and vitamins and minerals that you need to include. There is also guidance on what foods to avoid and how to transition your dog. There is also a good section on how to adapt the homemade food for health issues such as diabetes. The recipes are clear and you get recommendations for equipment and where to get vitamin supplements at the rear of the book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Details of nutrition are now in your own hands
Verified PurchaseThe recipes are simple to follow and there's plenty of them. I now feel confident that I'm providing my dog with food that promotes their health. Each recipe is designed with average pet owners in mind, ensuring that meals are quick and easy to prepare without compromising on quality or nutrition.
By simple explanation, the author delves into the importance of amino acids, plant and animal proteins, approved carbohydrates and hydration. By simple explanation, the author delves into the importance of amino acids, plant and animal proteins, approved carbohydrates and hydration.
I was not expecting all of the information that you gave in terms of how much water they should drink a day, terminology, what they should eat or not eat, the amounts of food they should eat. Highly recommend to all dog owners out there!
