These are the current books that we would recommend to anyone interested in learning how to cooking for your own dog (or cat). We don't sell any in our store (yet) so there will be links to Dogwise for each book.

There is much to learn. The Pet Food industry is a multi-million dollar industry. Read labels. Ask questions ... of more than one source. Each dog and cat is as individual in diet as you and I.

Keeping your dog or cat healthy is a full-time job. Hopefully, here you will find books to inspire, to challenge and to change the world of food for you and your four-leggeds.

Remember, a knowlegeable Veterinarian is invaluable. A Veterinarian is also a human, so you may need more than one in your arsenal of good health.

--> Amazon has taken down the links to the books (as we're based in Illinois and they don't like paying sales tax to the state). Thanks for your patience while we get this reorganized..

The book that started it all "Food Pets Die For". Ann Martin's investigation into the pet food industry revealed what is getting put into your dog and cat food.		Ann Martin's second book that updates what happened in the Pet Food Industry after her first book.
This is the third edition of Dr. Richard H. Pitcairn's book on dog and cat nutrition. Should be required reading for anyone BEFORE they begin cooking for their dogs. :)		Features raw and cooked canine diets by THE Monica Segal, for a variety of life stages, lifestyles, and diseases.
If there was one book in the world, for a dog/cat food nutritionist ... this is it. Monica Segal has a degree in animal nutrition and her books and writings are up-to-date with current nutrional values.		This one of the books we wish we could have written ... however, it would have taken much more schooling than either of us can imagine (and still cook healthy things for dogs and cats!). Written by three veterinarians,; Dr. Michael Fox, Dr. Elizabeth Hodgkins and Dr. Marion E. Smart the book that explains the "truth about manufactured dog and cat foods."
