221. Homemade vs. Commercial Dog Food: What You’re Getting Wrong with Dr. Susan Recker
The Pet Parenting Reset
Homemade or commercial—if you’re not meeting energy needs, you’re starving the micros. Vet Dr. Susan Recker breaks down energy requirements, why “feeding less than the bag” makes synthetic-balanced foods micronutrient-deficient, and how to fix DIY diets with Animal Diet Formulator (ADF). We cover common homemade pitfalls (iodine, manganese, vitamin E, choline, zinc), a simple vet checklist, and practical targets for balanced raw or cooked meals.
