Dog Obsessed: The Honest Kitchen's Complete Guide to a Happier, Healthier Life for the Pup You Love

by Lucy Postins

<!--[if gte mso 9]> Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 <![endif]--> Dog obsession is an all-consuming desire to make your dog happy and healthy--from the food he eats to how he celebrates his birthday--and it’s how Lucy Postins has lived her life. When her beloved dog, Mosi, began suffering with chronic health problems that conventional medicine couldn’t cure, she took to the kitchen and made dog food from real ingredients. Soon, Mosi’s problems vanished. Inspired by her own experience, Postins founded The Honest Kitchen, the first all-natural, human-grade pet food company, and became an expert in how to give a dog the life he deserves, from puppyhood to old age. In Dog Obsessed, Postins shares her secrets to help you care for your dog like (and sometimes better than!) family. Featuring over 50 easy-to-prepare recipes for treats, celebratory party fare, and meals that you can actually share with your dog (complete with wine pairings), the book also offers vet-approved health tips designed to troubleshoot common issues like food sensitivities and chronic illnesses, tips for camping and picnicking with your pup, as well as a two-week health and fitness plan. Packed with humorous, helpful advice that goes beyond the average dog-care book, including dos and don’ts in the dog park, how to ensure your pup’s holidays are safe and truly special, advice on how to manage your dog’s unique personality quirks, and a section on make-at-home dog games, Dog Obsessed is the only resource passionate dog owners will ever need. Dog Obsessed is perfectly packaged with feel-good photos, stories, and illustrations, as well as a foreword written by actress and comedienne Jane Lynch and contributed content from renowned veterinarians. <!--[if gte mso 9]> <![endif]--><!--[if gte mso 10]> /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {"Table Normal"; ""; 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt; "Times New Roman",serif;} <![endif]-->

Received this as a gift. While the book provided fairly basic information that most dog owners should already know (unless they're new dog owners), I did pick up tidbits of information here and then that I think will be helpful. I'm also excited to try the dog-safe recipes in the last chapter.

I won this in a Goodreads giveaway.
A fun book if you are really into dogs. I might try some recipes but I have the allergy pup from hell.
