What's the best homemade food percentage for my adult female dog?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Female | spayed | 5 years and 4 months old | 43 lbs

I have done a great deal of research but would like the opinion of an educated Veterinarian. I feed my girls cooked whole foods and would like to know what you believe is the best basic % for an adult semi active female dog?

If you are cooking for your dogs, the best place to help formulate a good homemade diet is ( www.balanceit.com ). This website was created by a veterinarian in nutrition and will help you formulate the best home cooked diet for your girls. The website is quite easy to use and you can purchase the vitamin / mineral supplement for the food directly from the website. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.
