Home food for 4 yr old Female German Shepherd.

We came to know that a German Shepherd lived 19yrs on home food of raw meat, veggies. So, we dumped the factory processed dry food. Ziva weighs 73lb. Our target weight for her is 70 to 71lb.

Our Ziva's diet:

Morning: 7:30am

Half cup mix of cooked brown rice, frozen peas, beans, corn and some fresh carrots. about 8oz of raw boneless skinless Chicken thighs bought at Costco, 1 boiled egg, 3 squirts of Fish oil, 2 tablets of Glucosamine Chondroitin for Dogs, 1 capsule of Vit E.

Evening: 7:30pm

Half cup mix of cooked brown rice, frozen peas, beans, corn and some fresh carrots. about 8oz of raw boneless skinless Chicken thighs, 3 squirts of Fish oil.

Afternoon: 3pm

A dozen peanuts roasted in the shell or a piece of Chicken jerkey.

Exercise:

Equivalent of 4 miles, elevation gain 500ft at least 4 times a week and walk on surface streets for about 10 miles a week.

She loves to run after a squeaky ball about 25 times a day or more.

If she gets less exercise, we cut out the egg and afternoon snack.

Her coat is lot more shiny. She is not scratching as much as before. Very athletic when she jumps on all fours to catch a ball in the air.
