Hi, everyone! I'm a newbie to this group and would like to introduce 
myself and my 3 small companions. I have a 15 year old 10 pound 
chi/min-pin mix girl (Scooter), a 3 year old 5 1/2 pound poodle boy 
(Pop), and a 6 month old 2 pound chi girl (Libby). I just got Libby 
about a month ago and she is everything that I was looking for. She 
makes us smile every day! I have created a photo album titled "Libby 
and Friends" if you would like to take a look. I joined this group 
mainly because I was searching out info on feeding. I have read a 
lot of pros and cons on them all. After researching for many days 
and nights, I have decided that I do not want to feed commercial 
food and would like to go with home cooked meals. The problem that I 
keep facing is that I can't seem to find any info that gives you a 
basic idea of an amount to feed, for example 10% of dogs body 
weight. Also, I am finding conflicting percentages of meat vs. carbs 
and veggies. There are so many different oppinions, all with 
apparently satifactory outcomes. I think it is up to the individual 
to do what they feel works best for their particular situation. I 
have been feeding Innova wet in the morning, raw burger with dyno-
vite in the afternoon and then leaving a small amount of dry kibble 
available until around 8pm. Libby is the only one that seems to need 
the extra kibble, as would be expected. This seems to be working 
well for all, but I still want to get away from the kibble and go 
with "real food". Thanks for having me. I look forward to learning 
and sharing.
Joy B.
