Homemade Dog Food

Has anyone ever made some homemade dog food with Venison, Elk, Antelope, etc.? Just like the kind in the stores, where it is dry kibble.
Yes, I know it seems like a waste. Just wanted to know if you have done it and how it turned out. Thanks.

you need an extruder to make a dry kibble, I have made homemade dog food however but it was packed and frozen, I also fed a raw diet which was even simpler. there are also lots of recipes for biscuits and treats...and the old norwegian family we knew who commercial fished they would use a pressure cooker and cook all the fish carcasses and heads in canning jars for their dogs, and their dogs lived forever and looked fabulous ( collies )

I've been feeding my dog homemade dog food for the last 4 months or so. He use to get ear infection one right after another. Since he has only had 1 ear infection and that was when I gave him chicken for 3 or 4 days. Chicken and him do not get along.
What I did this year though was saved the spine off my deer and put it in the crock pot and cooked all the meat off. Added veggies and rice and stuff and fed it to him. The ribs I saved raw and froze and give them to him just like that. He eats the rib bone and all.
It's cheaper to feed him home made food that pay for the vet and meds for his ear infections.

raw food diets rock, our old boxers lived on raw food diets, they loved it, and there are great recipes for it. also meat houses that sell packages cheap strictly for that
