[@suzannee8075]

3 lbs beef, 8oz beef heart, 5 oz liver, 20 oz chicken gizzards, 3 cans of sardines in water, 6 oz muscles w/o shell, 2 tsp freshly grated ginger, 3 eggs incl shells, 3 oz bell pepper, 5 oz leafy greens ie. kale and/or spinach, 4 oz broccoli, 6 oz butternut squash, 3 tbsp flaxseed oil, 4 oz cranberries, 4 oz shitake mushrooms, 1 tsp sea salt. Serve raw or bake low temp 325 for 45 mins.

[@pewtermom123]

Do you know the feeding amounts for dogs based on weight I would guess???? TIA

[@indigorose71]

Thankyou for that much love from me and my Kenai in Australia 🦘

[@suzannee8075]

Much love to you and your fur baby Kenai@@indigorose71

[@madgalactic]

​@@pewtermom123 she said she's got 4 dogs and they are about 15lbs. She said you want to feed them 2-3% of their body weight per day. And with a smaller dog they go for the 3% but a bigger dog, like 50lbs they do the 2%.

[@baskingintheglory]

Thank you so much for this. Now just to screenshot a picture and off to the store...

[@desertlover5027]

For anyone questioning if they should make this food, here's an update. We recently moved and had to find a new veterinarian. I knew she would ask what we feed them (they always do) and was ready for the lecture about bad homemade dog food. Instead, she was impressed by their physical condition, especially my female who she deemed "the most fit cattle dog" when Sasha leaped up onto the exam table. When she heard everything that was in the homemade dog food she was impressed and said that is good dog parenting. So glad we found a good doctor who doesn't want to regurgitate info fed to them by dog food reps. My dogs went from overweight with bad bellies to super fit, more energy and healthy.

[@dorothybutterfield8428]

I love the smile on your face watching George enjoy his meal ❤

[@veronicaturman4898]

Thank You so much Dr. Judy.... You have changed the way I feed my dog and I can't thank you enough. I feed my dog homemade cooked and raw meals. Usually raw at night and gently cooked in the morning. It's amazing watching my 12 year old puppy thriving. I realize he's a senior citizen but he acts like a 2 year old puppy. I love your videos and Thanks for all that you do.

[@Beanieweenieable]

You can also purchase a meat grinder attachment for the KitchenAide mixer…which I have and works well.

[@ProLifeCharlotte]

You can also use the bones to make broth and cook it for a long enough time that the bones become crushable in the hand. You can use the broth to add to the food, and crush the bones either by hand or put them in your mixer to crush them up.

[@chrispysadventures1071]

I do that with the bone all the time that’s a great point to put out there I cook it for like two days and it totally is soft

[@educatedgypsee2351]

It's helpful to use nearly frozen meats they don't gunk up the grinder and allow mixing to be easier

[@kathrinenewbury7196]

[@Indypendy]

I found you through Rachel Fassaro and I’m so glad I did. You both let people know that making your dogs food is a serious matter and what’s really required. I’ve seen other videos that make it seem like a stir fry is okay to feed dogs on a daily basis as their main food and it’s not

[@lisadugan1796]

If you were only making a small portion of this meal, why not cook it in a pan? As long as you don’t overcook it what’s the difference ?

[@wendywr]

I use my food processor and it works really well. I then freeze-dry it to take backpacking. My dogs absolutely love puploaf! They are very close when I'm making it, so helpful.

[@Hinotes4me]

Thank you for this, Dr. Judy! I’m preparing for my new puppy in 2025 and I have been following your videos for awhile plus have all of your books.. I learn best by hearing, reading, seeing, doing- in that order and am so looking forward to trying this for my grand doggies prior to getting my new puppy.

[@indigorose71]

I am so grateful for you beyond words , I have watched so much in the last 2 weeks .My Kenai ( Jack Russell )hasnt been well,he has had a cough been to the vets 3 X in the last 2 weeks,I have learnt so much.Thankyou so much,you are amazing for sharing with all of us .much love from Australia 🦘

[@desertlover5027]

Thank you so much. I have two heelers that in the past have never done well on the same food. I made this four days ago for the first time. My dogs both love this and no stomach issues so far. We’re all happy now!

[@joanies6778]

I had to call around to find a butcher who had the beef heart, where they sell the bulk meat. The mussels I found in the freezer section. There are also sites that sell the organs and bones online. My dog went nuts the first time I made this today... but I am slowly cooking mine.

[@jannellmeagher638]

Thank you! This recipe was the beginning of my nutritional journey for my dogs last year. Your knowledge is a game changer. We are so grateful for you. Thank you again.

[@DrJudyMorgan]

Thank you for following, watching and commenting! Please feel free to share this video with all your friends!

[@Carol-t7l]

Dr. Judy thank you so much we are making pup loaf now ❤

[@toyah4011]

Hi, this makes a pretty good portion, and may need to do half. However, I have found that my new puppy may have a beef allergy. Would you say that the protein meat can be the cause, and what would you suggest to substitute, turkey or chicken? And since your recipe includes both beef and chicken (gizzards) how can I still make it complete if I'm trying to see which one he may be allergic to? I really want a raw diet (that I make work)... please help or direct me to a video if you have already made one for substitutions. Thank you in advance.

[@malishomecooking6008]

Dr. Morgan you are an amazing veterinarian and a wonderful mom to your pets. 👏 I can see the love and admiration that you have for your dogs. I follow you for a few years now. Maxx my husky dog and I are very grateful for your pop loaf recipe it’s healthy and super delicious. Thank you so much for sharing and educating us the pets parents. ❤👍🥰

[@user-es1oc1mv8o]

I made this for the first time, as I'm getting used to using a grinder. They love it! Hope it helps my one dog with digestion problems. I'm sure I'll get better at this. No butternut squash available, so I did sub pure pumpkin for it. Thanks for a great video, keep up the good work. We need more holistic vets like you!!

[@webbsway]

Oh Dr Judy comma I just love you thank you so very much for helping the dog community period when I went to the vet they gave me down the road when I even mentioned homemade dog food and said I should be using Purina because they knew what they were doing period better have always fed my dogs homemade dog food and they live to be approximately 18 years of age and they were chihuahuas period right now I have one who is a Chihuahua mix who has a heart condition that I just found out about last year so I put her on your heart recipe. It was hard to find Hearts like you had suggested in the organs but I did manage to find a local source that I could order it from. So I am looking forward to taking her back to the new bet this fall to see how he thinks she's doing but it didn't stop her from coughing and she is very active thank you once again for all of your help you are such a blessing oh, I love the way that you seem to do things for the love of the dogs and not for money

[@jean683-y8k]

I thoroughly enjoyed the episode where Dr. Judy Morgan shared her recipe for making "Puploaf"! It's amazing how we can provide our dogs with homemade, nutritious meals that are tailored to their specific dietary needs. Dr. Morgan's emphasis on using wholesome ingredients and avoiding additives and fillers is so important for our pets' health. It's a great reminder that we have the power to take control of our dogs' diets and ensure they're getting the best nutrition possible. The step-by-step instructions and tips provided in the episode made it seem quite manageable, even for someone like me who is not a culinary expert. I appreciate how Dr. Morgan encourages us to experiment and adjust the recipe to suit our dog's preferences and dietary requirements. I can't wait to try making "Puploaf" for my furry friend! It's a wonderful way to show our love and care through homemade meals. Thank you, Dr. Judy Morgan, for sharing this fantastic recipe and your expertise in pet nutrition!

[@debbiewhite1145]

Excellent. Thank you for showing the cooked version too. For explaining to us to use all the juices and also for giving us an idea on feeding amounts for our dogs. Thank you so much.

I am so glad I watched this.. I was so intimidated before to make the pup loaf ,but this video has helped put it all in perspective. I am ready for the challenge! Thank you

[@leroybrown8858]

Spinach isn't just a little higher in oxalate, it's astronomically higher. People on kidney stone prevention diets don't touch it at all.

[@kathyhannah4771]

You also need to use it sparingly because it can cancel out zinc.

I made this tonight although I wasn't able to find some things. My dogs loved it.

Along with the written recipe from Suzanne8075, I would also add some oysters without the shell or packed in water no salt. About 5-6 ounces

[@treasuretrovel3816]

I'm going to order your book! I've been looking for a great dog recipe book that was formulated by a veterinarian but only a veterinarian that understood that dogs are carnivores and so vegetation should only be a very small percentage of the diet as is what has been observed for wolves and coyotes.

I'm so glad I came across your videos you make everything easy to understand.

[@samanthahart6224]

I am so excited to give this a try for my dog! She’s got a sensitivity to chicken though, so what could I use instead of the chicken gizzards and heart without disturbing the balance of the recipe? Thank you in advance, Dr. Judy! 💛

Low heat. Instant pot is too hot it will destroy the enzymes.

[@florencefiandach1045]

Dr. Judy, thank you so so very much! This is wonderful! Just a couple questions- how do you know if your eggs have chemically sanitized shells? (Google search says all eggs are sanitized that way.) And can you use dehydrated beef heart? I can't find it at any butcher or store nearby so I found the dehydrated online. Can you use fresh salmon instead of sardines? I am so grateful for your expertise and your help for our pets!

[@florencefiandach1045]

Actually, my local Publix does have Beef Heart! And I bought the eggshell powder, so all is well ! Thanks!

[@journeyhawk1728]

I had allergy testing done on my dog several years ago. She has many many food and environmental allergies. Her food allergies include all poultry and most fish. I cannot give her salmon oil, but I used to before I found out that she had allergies towards it. I am limited on what I can feed her but I do have her on a raw diet. My question is this: My dog in part Miniature Schnauzer. I have learned from prior research that Schnauzers can get Pancreatitis easily, so I try my best to not give her greasy foods like duck. I feed her beef heart regularly as a part of her RAW diet. I am going to start green tripe soon, but was wondering what other organ meats would be safe to give her?

[@ronnieroxx13]

Thank you thank you thank you...❤

[@erinmcphail4137]

Can salmon be used as the main protein? Do you always use beef heart/liver or do you rotate sources (lamb, venison, etc). Thank you for sharing your recipe! Our dog LOVES it!

[@judymorgan4241]

I would not use salmon long-term as the main protein and yes, you can rotate other species of heart and liver.

[@KateLim-ro1ey]

May I know what's the sea salt for? Is it okay to skip it?

[@oxfords1]

thank you doctor judy. I have a couple of questions are the organ meats healthy for them being that they're high in cholesterol? Ours are on a homemade diet developed by a holistic veterinarian and we found out through a PTH (I decided to have it done to make sure their calcium levels were within the normal range) we found out that they were all low on vitamin D despite giving them the supplemental powder that comes with the diet. I advice people to get a PTH done after being on a homemade diet. Not having adequate levels of calcium and vitamin D will result in painful ortho problems down the line.

[@susanmckernan4644]

What is a subsitute for the flax oil? Thanks for the video!

[@jpchannel-xq7zp]

I use ground flaxseed instead since I didn’t find any flaxseed oil at my local grocery store. I did some research and it said I could use ground flaxseed instead. 3 Tablespoon of flaxseed oil = around 148 ml of ground flaxseed

[@servantofmylord]

Been looking at a lot of recipes and this is my favorite so far. I have three large dogs and one small and doing this food everyday would be prohibitively expensive for us, but I'm thinking it would make a good addition to their good quality dry dog food. They get raw ground beef added to their food every meal, but I want to do more!

[@bethprocick4886]

@DrJudyMorgan - My dog is allergic to flax. What can I substitute for her? I heard Wheatgerm oil might be ok but I’m not sure. Also, can a calcium carbonate powder be used instead of eggshells? Finally, if my dog has MVD is she better to eat pup loaf or a heart-specific recipe?

Thanks Dr Judy for this detailed video. I have the following questions and hope you would take time to answer me. Many thanks. 1. May I know if I substitute turkey/ostrich for beef and bake it in the oven for 325F, do I need to get it cooked completely as they couldn't be eaten uncooked? 2. For the whole fish sardines, do you take off the organs like gills and intestines before grinding them? 3. How do you wash the veggies to get rid of the pesticides? 4. How do I wash the store bought eggs before grinding? 5. If no fresh cranberries, any replacement? 6. Can I replace butternut squash with pumpkin? 7. Can poodle eat beef? Sorry for all the questions but I have just adopted an 8 yrs old poodle from a rescue centre. I want to give him the best I can. May God bless you. :)

[@judymorgan4241]

You can make substitutions and we do recommend rotation. It can be eaten raw. Use the whole fish. I use organic veggies. Wash eggs in running water and scrub lightly. Blueberries aren't quite as good but can be used. Pumpkin is fine. Yes, most poodles can eat beef.

[@ritayeung8098]

I am having a hard time finding a few things, I live in a small Southern town so no meat or seafood shops. I had to get oysters instead of mussels and portobello mushrooms instead of shitake mushrooms. I can't find a beef heart but a meat processor in town is going to call me when he gets one. My poodle was scratching literally all the time and now just occasionally. I had to try something s made this recipe and they both love it. I have added a multivitamin and a probiotics. I also sprinkle some turmeric on their food. I am also giving her a metagel just for right now. Is there anything else that I should be giving them?
