With the weather getting colder, it's the perfect season for homemade stew. This beef and chicken stew can be made for the pets people in your family.

Ground beef is affordable and very easy to find in any grocery store. It's also easy to prepare, versatile (as it can be used in many different types of homemade food), and most dogs find it appetizing. I used ground beef in this meat and vegetable homemade dog food, but you can substitute with a different protein source if you'd prefer.

The liver is a vital organ in the body that removes toxins and waste from the system and produces bile for better digestion.

Some fiber-packed ingredients to include in a high fiber homemade dog food recipe include: bran, brown rice, lentils, beet pulp, corn and pumpkin. This recipe includes 3 of these ingredients.
