Making a homemade diet (especially a diet for a puppy) requires very careful balance between nutrients and supplementing with specific vitamins and minerals. There are a few companies that employ veterinary nutritionists to help formulate balanced diets. The most commonly used one is called Balance It ( https://secure.balanceit.com/ ). They will be able to help you choose ingredients and create a balanced recipe specifically for Sakshi. Good luck! I hope that was helpful. Thanks for using PetCoach.
