Feeding your Dalmatian a healthy homemade diet can be a
great way to ensure they're getting balanced nutrition, especially since
Dalmatians are prone to forming urinary stones due to their unique metabolism
of purines. A proper diet for them should be low in purines,
moderate in protein, and rich in moisture and vegetables.
Homemade Dalmatian Food
Recipe
Here's a balanced, vet-approved style recipe:
Low-Purine
Chicken & Rice Dalmatian Recipe
Ingredients:
· 1 lb lean ground chicken or turkey (low purine)
· 1 ½ cups white rice (easier on the urinary system than brown
rice)
· 1 medium carrot, chopped
· 1 zucchini, chopped
· ½ cup green beans, chopped
· 1 tbsp olive oil
· ½ tsp calcium supplement (or crushed eggshell powder)
· 1 multivitamin supplement for dogs (vet-recommended)
· Optional: 1 egg (cooked), for added protein once or twice a week
Instructions:
1. Cook the rice in water (no
seasoning) and set aside.
2. Sauté chicken in olive oil until
fully cooked.
3. Steam or lightly cook the vegetables.
4. Mix chicken, rice, and veggies together.
5. Add calcium supplement and multivitamin once cooled (to preserve
potency).
6. Store in an airtight container in the fridge (lasts ~3 days).
Portioning depends on your dog’s weight, age, and activity level. A
typical adult Dalmatian (45-70 lbs) might need 2.5–4 cups daily, divided into 2
meals.
Foods to Avoid for
Dalmatians (High in Purines):
· Organ meats (liver, kidney)
· Sardines, anchovies
