Home made cooked meals for senior labs??
Hello everyone, first I want to apologize if this is a common question from a new member. I have done research on this site and many others but I get too overwhelmed and find contradicting information so I figure to just ask now.
I have a 10 year old black lab that I've had since I was 19 years old. She is in great health other than showing beginning signs of arthritis. She seems to limp for a few steps on her front legs after laying down for a little while. She has been on glucosamine and fish oil pills the majority of her life. She has been fed purina one her entire life. I feel guilty not looking into home made meals sooner but honestly didn't know any better.
Can anyone share a receipe with me that would be somewhat affordable home made cooked meal that is easy to understand but also gets her everything she needs? I've read her being older I should stay away from grains/rice but most receipes I find include them. Rather than reading, I'm hoping asking people with experience will benefit me.
I've been asked at her age do I think changing her diet now to a home made meal will help the damage already done by commercial food? I like to think yes as it would in us humans!
Thank you
