One word of caution.  Try small batches at first.  My wife and I made some dog treats once thinking he'd love it and he did like them but they constipated him.  We don't know enough about what dogs need in their diet and what could have caused it so we just tossed em out.

Good luck.  Sounds like you have your hands full.

have you tried mixing different things into the food. I know when my lab wont eat i will throw in scrambled eggs, little burger or venison just somthing that smells good. But good luck to you hope it all works for you and the dog. ::rockon::

I cook for my lab.  I consulted a nutritionist and she developed several diets for me/him.  The reason I consulted the canine nutritionist was because I wanted the menu to be nutritionally complete.  He's been on the diet for almost 6 months and is doing great--he looks like a new dog!  My husband is a little jealous that I cook more for the dog than him.   

One that I really like is Monica Segal.  www.monicasegal.com

She also has a book (or two??)  I know one is Canine Kitchen... and she also has a yahoo group. 

If you want to e-mail me, you can and I'll send a recipe so you can see what they're like. 

Good luck!

You can do a raw diet.  Raw chicken wings and carrots and apples.  I dont have the exact recipe but my buis partner does.  I willl find out.
