We switched our dachshunds over to a new homemade pumpkin and chicken dog food recipe. Chloe – who is very finicky – just loves it.

The main reason we switched to this diet is to bulk up Odie’s poops so it will help him express his anal glands naturally.

It’s very simple to make.  I just pick up frozen chicken breasts from CostCo and a small can of pumpkin.  Two breasts are defrosted in a microwave for about 20 min and then cooked about 7 minutes on high until done.

I slice the breasts into small pieces and add a can of pumpkin.  It makes about 6 servings for a small dog a miniature daschund.  Total cost runs around $0.75 per serving which is cheaper and far better than normal dog food.
