Homemade Dog Gravy

1 boneless, skinless chicken breast
4 cups hot simmering water
1 cup flour
2 eggs, beaten

Poach the chicken breast in the water. Remove the breast and cool. Add the flour to the chicken water and whisk until smooth. Add the beaten eggs and cook on low heat while it is thickening. Finely chop (or puree) the chicken in a food processor and add to the flour mixture. Add more water if needed. Use a few tablespoons daily on dry kibble. This doesn't freeze well.

Do you have a sick dog?

Hamburger and Rice

When I was in the vet's office, there was a dog there that was sick. Really sick. He told the dog's owner not to feed him commercial dog food, but a mixture of cooked hamburger and rice. It's easy on their stomach. Store leftovers in the refrigerator.
