    ThermoFun - Member Spotlight - Doggy Meatloaf Recipe

    Jump to recipe

    DoggieMeatloaf

    As a follow up to last weeks ThermoFun Member Spotlight Doggy Treats recipe, Tania is sharing the meatloaf recipe that she also gives her dog (Honey).   I really think I want to be Tania's dog!!!  Talk about live like a Queen!  :)

    HoneyTania is a ThermoFun Club Member.  This recipe sounds too delicious and I’m not even a dog!!

    Here is Tania’s little spiel about her meatloaf:

    "I've been making variations of this meatloaf for my various dogs for years. Mostly any vegetable apart from garlic and onion can be used. Good time to use any bits and pieces in the vegetable crisper or even left over cooked veg from a previous meal. Chicken or beef mince can be substituted; even adding some chopped up chicken livers is good. I use whatever is on sale or needing to clear out of the fridge/freezer. You can add supplements such as fish oil or chopped up nori sheets to this mix. The 3 boiled eggs lined in the middle are of course totally optional. I spotted someone online using them this way and thought it would make an extra special treat for Honey. Honey is a small/medium dog and she gets 8 meals from this meatloaf along with some dry food to supplement. Use within the week refrigerated or suitable to freeze in portion slices".

        Hi Megan, I asked Tania and she said: "I have a Cavoodle. I cut the meatloaf into 2-3cm thick slices, so get approx 8-10 slices. I tend to freeze half of them and keep the rest in the fridge, giving her one slice cut up in the evening along with a cup of her nutritionally balanced dry food in the morning. Hope this helps. Every dog is different though.

      Mine loved it! I substituted the turkey for liver since Consuelo is a bit anemic. It took much longer to cook, but definitely going to repeat it!

      I love this recipe but I do make a few changes. I do not add the cheese, eggs or tomato paste into the mixture. And I only use 2 boiled eggs (cooked with he rice)! And our fur baby loves it! Slice in into daily serves and this is great!

      My SharPei has pancreatitis and needs a specialised diet. I'll definitely give this a try using homemade chicken breast mince (only the best).
