Oils, minerals and vitamins are essential for the dog's health. Many people forget to add them resulting in deficiencies for their dog.
Remember that dogs have a greater need for calcium than humans and therefore need an external source of calcium in addition to the other ingredients used.
Why offer your customers to cook for their dogs?
Customers who ask for advice usually cook so that they can determine themselves the quality and proportions of the ingredients. Sometimes their dog is allergic or intolerant to the previous diet, or the dog no longer eats his diet with appetite. You can recommend cooked food yourself in the following cases:
Control over the Ingredients
You can recommend ingredients rich in certain nutrients and you can opt for fresh and quality products. You can also prepare hypoallergenic meals for allergic dogs.
Diseases
You can perfectly feed sick animals with home cooked meals, there are plenty of choices and cooked meals are easily digestible (gastrointestinal issues) and you can easily add healthy fiber (for patients with kidney disease, obesity, etc.)
Pleasure of eating

Meals can also be heated.
