Step 1 of 4 — Meats

Step 2 of 4 — Vegetables
Choose your vegetables and fruit
Veggies are an important part of balanced diet and a source of essential nutrients. Select your dog's vegetables from the list below or pick one of Dr. Dobias' veggie blends. Ideally choose a variety of vegetables and chop them in a food processor. Veggies can be mixed in with meats and organs or fed separately. If your dog doesn't like veggies, add FeelGood Omega or preferred food toppers. Fruit is optional, choose dark coloured berries or lower sugar fruits. Do not exceed 5% of fruit in the recipe.

Step 3 of 4 — Organs
Choose your organs (optional)
Organs are beneficial but considered optional especially if you balance your dog's diet with Dr. Dobias's FAB4 essential supplements. You can feed them raw or cooked — though raw retains more nutrients.

Caution: Beware of feeding too much liver
Step 4 of 4 — Bones
Choose raw bones (optional)
Raw bones are a valuable source of calcium and other minerals and also highly beneficial for dental health. Never feed cooked bones as they are not digestable.

Let's personalize your recipe
[[dogName]]'s custom recipe is ready — and I truly hope they love every bite of it!
The fact that you took the time create a healthy recipe for ccxc already tells me something important about you: you genuinely care, and you want to do your very best for them.
That matters very much because as you may already know, the food in your dog's bowl every single day is the most powerful medicine, the core foundation for their health, longevity, and happiness.
Your recipe has been calculated based on the weight and body condition you provided, but feel free to adjust it based on ccxc's activity level, breed, and body type. If you're unsure how to adjust, refer to the chart below.
A Few Things to Know Before You Start
- Feed raw whenever possible. If you prefer cooked meats, that's perfectly fine — just please, never cooked bones.
- Blend or finely chop the vegetables. Most dogs prefer them this way, and they absorb the nutrients far better from finely chopped or puréed veggies.
- One meal a day is more natural — and healthier. Research suggests that feeding once a day is closer to how dogs evolved, and is similar to the benefits of intermittent fasting in people.
- Never feed before a big walk or exercise. This is especially important for larger breeds.
- Morning feeding tends to be better than evening. Late evening meals may interfere with restful sleep.
- Recalibrate as ccxc changes. If they start gaining or losing weight, come back to the Recipe Maker and update the portions. The recipe should evolve with them.

One More Thing I Want to Be Honest About
Homemade food is one of the best things you can do for your dog — but it does have nutritional gaps that are very difficult to fill through ingredients alone. Minerals, omega-3 fatty acids, and key vitamins are the most common ones I see missing, even in carefully prepared diets.
I've spent years formulating supplements specifically for dogs eating fresh, natural food. They're not an afterthought — they're what turns a good diet into a truly complete one.
If anything feels unclear, or you simply want to understand the why behind what you're feeding, I have years of free articles, videos, and podcasts waiting for you at peterdobias.com.
Thank you for trusting me with [[dogName]]'s health. It means a lot to me.
