Instructions
1. In A Bowl, Combine The Following Ingredients
Begin with 90% lean ground beef. It must be lean due to dog's high amino acid requirement.
Next, add 2 teaspoons of hempseed oil. If you don't have oil, substitute 3 tablespoons of hempseed. This balances the fats of this recipe.
Then, add in the cod liver oil (or half a can of sardines {2oz}). This addition meets the vitamin D and E requirements.
Now add in a half teaspoon of ginger powder which is packed with ligament-supporting manganese.
After this add in the kelp. This green powder is packed with iodine.
Finally, to bind the ingredients together as well as bring in folic acid, add one egg. Keep half the shell for next step.

3. Add Following Ingredient To Food Processor
Place the half egg shell into machine. This will meet adult dog's calcium requirement.
Next, add the beef liver, which provides copper, zinc and iron.
Finally, add in the veggies broccoli, red bell pepper and spinach. These bring with them antioxidants, phytonutrients and enzymes, as well as fiber.
4. Process Ingredients Until Finely Chopped
