Web site offers alternatives to manufactured petfood

With the recent recalls, some pet owners are opting to make their own alternatives. A new Web site, www.PetFoodies.com provides hundreds of recipes for pet owners.
Users can read and print hundreds of recipes; watch “how-to” videos from pet care experts; share dietary advice on the blog; post their own recipes; and get tips and recipes via RSS feed.
Veterinarians and experts in companion animal nutrition continue to caution that it is difficult for consumers making petfood at home to achieve the right balance of nutrients required for healthy cats or dogs.
Pet owners considering this route should consult a veterinarian knowledgeable in pet nutrition.
