Homemade Low-Cost Dog Food Recipe
The ingredients in this recipe are affordable in my region. We grow a lot of our vegetables, and my husband is an avid hunter so we have plenty of game meat in the freezer most of the time.
If venison is too expensive in your region, you could substitute ground beef, chicken or turkey instead. You could also substitute other fruits and vegetables that are in season or locally grown in your area. This will help to keep this low-cost dog food recipe as cheap as possible.
