How to Make Chicken & Rice Dog Food

Chicken and rice is a popular combination for dog food because it is high in protein and low in fat. According to the Partnership for Animal Welfare, excessive animal-based fats in a dog's diet can lead to digestive disorders and even pancreatitis. Use boneless, skinless chicken breasts, brown rice and green beans for a healthy alternative to store-bought dog food. Commercial dog foods contain by-products and chemicals that are often devoid of the nutrients dogs need to thrive.

Instructions

1

Boil chicken breasts in water until cooked and no longer pink.

2

Remove the chicken from the pot and reserve the chicken broth.

3

Chop the chicken into small pieces or process in a food processor for a finer texture.

4

Boil the green beans in the chicken broth until heated through.

5

Combine all ingredients together in a large bowl with the olive oil and stir until blended. Add some of the chicken broth for a softer texture.

6

Let cool and serve to your dog.
