Dog Nutrition and Cookbook Recommendations
I notice more and more members interested in nutrition and thought we could nominate our favorite books to share. Just add the information in this thread and we'll add as we go. Happy Feeding!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dog Nutrition

US Board of Agriculture's Nutrient Requirements of Dogs, Revised 1985

Steve Brown's See Spot Live Longer

Monica Segal's K9Kitchen - functional canine nutrition but short on recipes

Monica Segal's Optimal Nutrition - follow up book for more advanced; gives recipe corrections along with scientific information like the 2006 NRC figures

Ann N. Martin's Food Pets Die For: Shocking Facts About Pet Food - shocking information regarding "pet grade" ingredients and commercial pet foods & Protect Your Pet: More Shocking Facts

Raw Feeding

Tom Lonsdale's Raw Meaty Bones Promote Health

Home Cooking

Monica Segal's K9Kitchen - functional canine nutrition but short on recipes

Monica Segal's Optimal Nutrition - follow up book for more advanced; gives recipe corrections along with scientific information like the 2006 NRC figures

Dr. Lowell Ackerman's Canine Nutrition - canine nutrition requirements with many recipes based on life stages and disease.

Dr. Pitcairn's Natural Health for Dogs and Cats - low on recipes but lots of health information and holistic information

Dr. Messionnier's Health Bible - great reference guide for vitamins, herbs, conditions and feeding, no recipes

I don't make food from the recipes in Dr. PItcairns book that I have. I just gathered information on neutrition over the past 32 years and now just feed simple plain foods I know to be good for them. So I can't recommend a recipe book, but a book that's a major help in the neutrition department is Ann N. Martins book, PROTECT YOUR PET

Sorry but for some reason while I was typing, it posted too soon.

Anyway the book I'm talking about by Ann N. Martin PROTECT YOUR PET More Shocking Facts has these chapters:

Dangers of Commercial Pet Foods
Raw Meat Diet Controversy
Excessive Vaccinations
Increased Cancer in Pets
Healthy Recipes and Resources

I also recommend her first book: FOOD PETS DIE FOR.

Thank you, I knew you'd have some more

I found Food Pets Die for difficult to read but had great information, was Protect Your Pet easier to read?
