My dog is tired of kibble. Can I feed her healthy human food?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Medium (23 - 60lb) | Female | spayed | 1 year and 7 months old | 30 lbs

What kind of "people food" is healthy for my dog. She's not really a fan of kibble. She just gets tired of food so quickly whether it's canned, raw frozen or kibble that I wonder if giving her a regular food diet is the answer

This is a great question! It is possible to cook balanced meals for Phoebe, but it does take a little work. Please visit balanceit.com and https://www.aspca.org/pet-care/animal-poison-control for information on balanced diets for dogs and what is safe for them to eat. Raw diets are not recommended by the AVMA due to the risk of transmission of food borne diseases to both pets and humans. Please see the following link for more information about this https://www.avma.org/KB/Policies/Pages/Raw-or-Undercooked-Animal-Source-Protein-in-Cat-and-Dog-Diets.aspx.
