greytspud Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 Does anyone have the recipe for the meatballs to add weight to a dog? I know that I have seen it post it here before. A friend's grey has cancer and I would like to send her the information. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A friend's grey has cancer and I would like to send her the information. Thanks in advance. Tell your friend to get some Nutritional Yeast (Red Star Yeast) It's loaded with B vitamins and sometimes helps peak an appetite Here are two recipes I got from AngelWhispers 1 lb cheap hamburger 1 and 1/3 cups Whole Wheat Total (in blue box) 1 and 1/2 cups uncooked oatmeal (not instant oatmeal) 1 soft boiled egg with egg shell (leave yoke a little runny) 6 Tablespoons wheat germ 1 package Knox unflavored gelatin 3 Tablespoons olive oil 2 Tablespoons unsulphered molasses 3 Tablespoons organic apple cider vinegar (look for it in the health food section of grocery store) 1/4 teaspoon crushed garlic ****optional ****sometimes a little garlic peaks a picky eaters sense of smell Mix all ingredients until thoroughly mixed and shape into hamburger patties or little meatballs. I crack the soft boiled egg and then squish it up, shell and all goes in for the calcium. The mixture is thick, so I mix it up with my hands in a large soup pot when I make the 5 lb recipe. 5lb Recipe 5 lb cheap hamburger 6 cups Whole Wheat Total 7 cups uncooked oatmeal 5 soft boiled eggs 2 cups wheat germ 5 packages Knox unflavored gelatin 2/3 cup of olive oil 3/4 cup unsulphered molasses 1/2 cup organic apple cider vinegar 1 teaspoon garlic if needed I make it into approx. 1/4 lb hamburger patties and freeze in freezer bags. Then I grab one and pop into microwave on defrost setting. Don't cook it, just get it defrosted and warmed, that helps release the smells and flavors.

Guest 4baddogs Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Satin Balls This is for 10 lbs, but you could easily cut in half etc. This is the one I always use/used and the only addition I make is a little garlic powder. I also make sure to crush up the egg shells really well. It packs weight on really quick! Best wishes to your friends grey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest KennelMom Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 We always kinda mix up our own based on what we have on hand - ground beef, cereal, eggs, rice, pasta, oatmeal....we try to keep it fairly bland and not toooo high in fat or too rich.
