What are some diabetic dog food recipes?

My brother-in-law has a Labrador dog that has been with them for a couple of years. They love the dog very much. During their last visit to the vet, they were told that the dog has diabetes. I was surprised I never thought dogs can get this. He is asking if I know how to prepare homemade dog food for a diabetic dog. Do you know any dog food recipe for dogs with this type of condition?

Here are some interesting facts.

Controlling the blood glucose level of a diabetic dog is the first and foremost important step in treatment.

Usually, insulin injections are prescribed under the supervision of a veterinarian. In addition, care should be taken about the oral medications and diet of the dog suffering from diabetes. Let’s see some of the tips, which will help in choosing healthy foods for a diabetic dog.

A diabetic dog food should contain less sugar, carbohydrates and sodium. It is to be noted that the soft and moist dog food contains higher amount of carbohydrates. The best option is to feed a good dry and balanced canned food; however, always make sure that you check the label of the contents before feeding. Don’t feed a canned food that is without formulations (nutritional facts) or label.

Diabetes in dogs is best treated by feeding a nutritionally sound diet. Fiber-rich foods are the best meal for a dog to prevent diabetes. Here is a recipe for a balanced meal for a dog:

* 50 % complex carbohydrates such as cooked brown rice
* 25% vegetables, such as carrots, alfalfa sprouts or green beans
* 25% protein, such as lean organic chicken, lean beef, eggs and steamed fish
