If you are using commercial dog food, your dog could be dying a slow
death. Most people refuse to aknowledge the fact that the commercial
dog food is garbage. It contains tons of additives that are proven to
cause cancer and other horrible things. If you keep feeding your dog
this commercial dog food your shaving up to 8 years off your dogs
life. I have a blog dedicated to saving dogs from this horrible
scam. Go ahead and check it out.

I think it's pretty safe to say that all of us and all our
dogs are dying a slow death. Pimp moron. Shame on you.

My dogs on commercial diets have lived to 15 1/2 to 22 years on commercial
food. My raw fed dog died at 14 1/2 (The youngest I've ever had die)

Just how long do your dogs live?

Unfortunately, all those things listed on your blog also apply to
human food, so if you just give them human food, you run the same
risks. Also, there have been more human food recalls than pet foods. E-
coli outbreaks are common.

I have no doubts that you can mix a very good dog food, but I also
think the commercial dog foods are fine. In fact, one is almost as
good as another, IMO, since there is a lot of hype built into selling
dog food. My dog is thriving. I add a raw egg to her kibble at each
feeding. The kibble is a mixture of Walmart cheap dogfood, Purina
puppy chow and other food I get as free samples from the pet store and
vet's office.

One trick I use to try and avoid the contaminated dog food problem is
to buy my dog food way ahead of time. It is good for many months, so I
always buy it at least 3 months before I plan to use it. That way if
there is a problem, I should know about it ahead of time. dkw

I see. Well, the rest of us can just talk about the pros and cons of
mixing your own dog food. Do you like my idea of buying the food ahead
of time? It works for human food too. Well, canned food anyway. In
fact I had two jars of the peanut butter (unopened) that was recalled
last year. Orange juice or spinach wouldn't work of course cause you
have to consume them much faster.

Amazing that so many of the dog food companies used the ingredient
from the same source. The peanut butter recall showed the same thing.
Both Peter Pan (at a much higher price) and the Walmart brand cheap
stuff were made in the same factory. Since the ingredients are item
for item the same, you can assume the quality is also the same...in
this case poor, however. dkw

Why is it amazing or why did they use it from the same source? I think
it is amazing that all those brands with their claims of superior this
or that would not also make their own ingredients in their own
processing plants. I am trying to make a point that often the cheap
brands are better buys cause they are in fact the same thing found in
another box that sells for a higher price. I know this isn't always
the case. Hershey's makes chocolate for lots of companies for example
and Kellogs makes cereal for lots of different brands of corn flakes.

Since you asked, I see no pros in what you are doing.

Kibble gets stale and rancid if it's not consumed in a timely manner.

Um, Peter Pan *is* cheap peanut butter. It's full of corn syrup and
hydrogenated oil. Ugh.

Anyway, for whatever reason, I've never had any of the foods I eat
recalled. That doesn't mean it couldn't happen, but I'd like to think
that my shopping habits make it less likely.

Your point is bogus. Consider for a moment that most folks do not eat
the same thing every day, even though their meals are made in the same
kitchen, by the same hands, with the same basic ingredients, day after
day after day after day.
