5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic book, 26 Sep 2011
By 
This review is from: Better Food for Dogs: A Complete Cookbook and Nutrition Guide (Paperback)
I purchased 2 books to help me feed a better diet to my dog. This book,unlike the other, is fantastic. It gives detailed nutritional requirements for different sizes of dogs and tells you how to achieve them including recipes. It also tells you what to look out for and what is harmful for your dog. This is a vital book for anyone looking to feed their dog a well balanced home cooked meal.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simple but complete recipes, 25 July 2007
By Pupeluv - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Better Food for Dogs: A Complete Cookbook and Nutrition Guide (Paperback)
This book is easy to read and simple to use, but has all the good information you need to cook for your dog. They even break up the recipes based on the weight of your dog so you don't have to figure it out yourself. There is a basic nutrition breakdown for each recipe. Once you know what you're doing, you'll probably want to get some more complicated books about canine nutrition to start making up your own recipes; but this is a great book to get you started.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book!, 18 July 2007
By C. YAMAHASHI "Leo the English Setter" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Better Food for Dogs: A Complete Cookbook and Nutrition Guide (Paperback)
This book is my first cooking book for my dog. My dog(2yrs.) had been so picky what he eats. I tried many different brand of dog foods, can foods and frozen raw food. He doesn't care about kibbles... He eats kibbles one cup in 2 days for staying alive.(he was 10-15 lb. under weight) He eats can food IF there is whole chiken thigh, or ...some whole thing. He doesn't like mushy can food.) Frozen raw food... he has sensitive stomach. If its still too cold, he will throw up) I know he likes can food, but I didn't want to keep feeding him can food because I don't believe they have enough nutrients. I start thinking about cooking for him. I don't know why I bought this book, but I feel lucky. This book is really easy to read and easy to understand. There are 4 recipes for different weighs(5,10,15,20,25,....50,60,70,....150 lb.) One is basic recipe, other 3 are gourmet recipes. Hard part for me was to find vitamin and mineral supplement. I didn't understand what I was looking for in the supplement.Other than that, it is easy to make and most importantly, my dog LOVEs his food now. I recommend this book to anyone looking for a recipe book for dogs.

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth Every Cent!, 10 Mar 2008
By Bette - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Better Food for Dogs: A Complete Cookbook and Nutrition Guide (Paperback)
This book is a wealth of knowedge. I had recently purchased 3 other books of a like nature, but this is my favorite by far. I especially like the fact that the author is not suggesting that BARF (a raw meat diet) is the only way to go. Instead, options are explained - learn how to feed raw, learn how to prepare home cooked meals or at the very least learn how to feed the best quiality manufactured dog/cat foods. In addition, I learned about the importance of adding vitamins, minerals, probotics, etc. A few of my co-workers who have borrowed the book have returned it to me the next day since they ordered their own copy right away. This book is a must have for any pet owner who wants to learn how to feed their other family member better.
