Such as Vitamin A, Calcium, those things. I'm going to be either feeding my doggie homemade meals, or designing my own dog food (sounds far-fetched but hey i can try). And can you list how much percent of each mineral or vitamin the dog needs from each one?
Thanks a bunch :D

omg doofus....what do you think i'm trying to do? Im researching on dogs right now! you think i wouldn't check my formula with a vet first?? i dont know if you arent very intelligent or just very young, but you list the percent of each mineral and vitamin to fit into %100 percent of their diet. Its okay, just dont try and look smart anymore, and you'll be fine...oh and dont diss somebody intill you know more about what they're doing

"Hey, I can try". Maybe if you have NO idea, start with a recipie that is already spelled out for you. If you mess it up, the dog is the one who suffers!!!!
And how do you list the "percent" of each Vitamin and mineral that the dog needs???? The dog needs 100% of it's "RDA" of each!!! If it needs 100mg of Vitamin C, it needs 100% of that!!!!!!
Someone is unintelligent!!!! I can't WAIT for someone to tell you what percentage of ...let's say Vit E is in the dogs daily diet!!!!!!! Do you NOT get it!! It does not work that way!!!!! You have no clue!!!!! It doesn't matter what "percent" of the diet the Vitamin E or C or A is. It matters if the dog is getting the WHOLE amount of the vitamin needed over the course of the day. You don't figure vitamin and mineral need like you are trying to do!!!!

If you want to make your dog home-made food, there's an excellent book called "Dr. Pitcairn's Complete Guide to Natural Health for Dogs and Cats". It includes recipes, vitamins, minerals, other additives that are good for dogs (for example - what alfalfa sprouts are specifically good for). The recipes are very easy to make. I've been feeding my 3 home-made for months now and they're thriving on it. But it's a really good idea to know exactly what vitamins, etc. to give, as well as how much.

I cannot even follow what you are asking, so you should not call anyone else names. You should also not be making your own dog food. You seem to have very little knowledge on the subject!!! You cannot determine the amount to vitamins like you are talking about. Maybe listen to the others and learn something!!!
