Salmon is a great food for dogs. It's great for a shiny coat with it's high content of omega-3 fatty acids and is a great protein source. Salmon helps with inflammation and can help with skin irritiations.
The salmon must be cooked and ensure that you remove any fish bones before serving it. Boneless salmon fillets are a great option. Raw salmon should not be given to dogs.

Leave a review or take a picture and share it on Instagram Let us know how it was! @ #This recipe was so much fun to create – so thank you to everyone who voted on Instagram for the ingredients in this recipe! Overall this recipe is very high in protein and fat and low in carbohydrates. The overall distribution of calories in this diet is very similar to the typical raw diet – with over 45% protein, 40% fat, and less than 15% of the calories coming from carbohydrates. This diet is probably best for a highly active dog like a herding dog, or sled dog that would utilize the higher fat/protein in order to fuel their need for muscle repair and energy.

If any changes are made to the recipe it will no longer be considered balanced and should be considered a “treat” or “addition” and be kept to 10% of your dog’s overall daily caloric needs.

Once all items these items are cooked, allow to cool completely. When I make these recipes I usually take one day to cook all the ingredients, then allow them to cool overnight in the fridge prior to portioning the next day.
After all items are cooled, cut all ingredients into bite-size pieces, weigh, and portion for the meal. If you have a smaller breed dog OR if your dog is likely to “pick” around ingredients – I highly recommend using a food processor to puree all the ingredients together.
When I food prep for my dogs I usually make large batches for a week at a time – this makes things easier for me, so I don’t have to cook every day for my dogs.
