Y'all who cook your own dog food, what all is needed to have a balanced diet?  I've cooked a few pots of freezer burned meat...deer, pork, venison, beef liver, etc.. but wanted advice on what all is recommended to add to the pot to keep the dogs healthy. Is white rice and meat enough??

I try to feed raw as much as possible, one of my best friends and neighbor owns a meat processing business so I get all the meat scrap and bones, whenever I clean something I feed all the organs except for stomach and intestines, only thing that gets thrown away is the head, hide, and hooves, I also feed showtime kibble to help keep the minerals and vitamins balanced...

For those that feed raw and work your dogs all the time, have yall seen a difference in your dogs performance, such as higher prey drive Huh?

I've noticed a big difference in them, they all seem to have a lot more spunk and more muscle, they are hard as a brick, after deer season is over my friend who owns the meat processing is also the meat market manager at a local grocery store in town im going to start ordering through him, anything I can get for .50 cents a pound or less I'll buy because I'll be coming out cheaper than what I would be on my kibble, it's funny how them dogs know when I have a load of meat on my golf cart, as soon as I pull through the gate to my dog yard they start raising cane, my gate is about 200yds from my dog yard and when I don't have any and am just pulling down there to feed they act normal, another dog man I talk to feeds 100% raw and swears that it makes a difference in a dogs performance, senses and prey drive, his theory is that wolves and coyotes are 95% carnivores and the closer we can get our dogs back to being a predator the better hunting dogs they will be, starting with their diet, he's also a respected bulldog man and has proven some of his theory to be right, at least on his own yard and his record and reputation can back it up...

How does this work I never worried about this because its bloodborn so I figured if my dogs have blood in there mouth they would get it just from catching the pig so I though if they didn't get it from the catch they wouldn't get it same goes for trig I don't believe there are any "muscle born" disease so if your dog ever gets blood in its system they would be at risk

"Other than direct contact with swine, dogs may contract the pseudorabies virus (or Suid herpesvirus 1) by eating contaminated, uncooked meat or offal from swine, or by ingesting infected rats."

Contaminated drinking water and feed buckets will contribute to the spread Viral infection in swine is seen after two to five days post infection The virus can be identified in milk, urine, nasal secretions, and tonsillar tissue of pigs People can carry the virus on their footwear, skin, or clothing after contact with pigs In the right conditions, the virus can survive for a few days in the grass, soil, shelled corn, and feces It is an aerosolized virus meaning it can be passed through droplets in the air that can persist up to seven hours Inhalation of the virus is possible
