Answer
Wow Cindy - I wonder if Hershey will like you cooking for him.  We have a food called SoJo mix - you add the lightly cooked meats to the SoJo mix.  Soooo gooooood-
Many picky dogs and cats love the SoJo food:
here is the link to see : I like the GREEN bag because it is Grain-free and easy on the belly.

Dog Meatballs

Dog Dog Food Recipe by Michele, provided to her by her vet.

Ground chicken
Ground beef
4% small curd cottage cheese
2 cups quaker oats soaked in low sodium chicken broth
peas
string beans
2 tablespoons salmon or fish oil (health food store or break open capsules from grocery store)
2 eggs
2 boiled yams or sweet potatoes -this is great protein and helps keep everything moist.

Mix together and make into meatballs the size of your dogs portion. Bake them at 350 until they are completely done.
Freeze into bags and warm up in microwave until warm and serve. They should love it and it is all digested so there is very little waste and smell.


I wish you luck!  Some dogs are hard to feed...  My Maltese is very hard to feed, too.
