DAY 25 · DINNER
Salmon & Pumpkin Bowl
Salmon with pumpkin and gentle vegetables — a hearty dinner.
Dinner· 40 min total· 5 ingredients
Ingredients
- 120 g boneless salmon
- 140 g pumpkin
- 60 g mixed green peas and carrot
- omega-3 drizzle
- Fresh water for cooking
Portion & storage
These amounts make roughly one day of food for a ~10 kg adult dog, split across the day. As a rough guide feed 2–3% of body weight daily: a 3 kg dog ≈ 60–90 g, a 20 kg dog ≈ 300–450 g, a 30 kg dog ≈ 450–650 g. Puppies, working, pregnant or underweight dogs need more; seniors and low-activity dogs need less. Introduce any new recipe over 5–7 days, mixed into the current food. Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight box and use within 2 days; serve at room temperature.
Method
- 1
Steam 140 g peeled pumpkin for 12 minutes and mash — excellent for digestion.
- 2
Bake the salmon at 180°C for 12–15 minutes until opaque, then flake and remove any bones. Always cooked, never raw.
- 3
Steam 60 g total of chopped green peas and carrot for 6–9 minutes until just tender.
- 4
Let everything cool to room temperature, then fold the salmon, pumpkin and vegetables together.
- 5
Drizzle over ¼ tsp fish oil (or ½ tsp ground flaxseed) for skin and coat.
- 6
Serve at room temperature. Store any extra in the fridge and use within 2 days.

These are recipe ideas, not a complete daily diet plan. Every dog has different nutritional needs based on age, size, weight, breed and overall health. Use these to add variety and inspiration — introduce anything new slowly over 5–7 days, and talk to your veterinarian before making major changes, especially for puppies, seniors, pregnant dogs, or dogs with allergies or medical conditions. Never feed onion, garlic, chives, leek, grapes, raisins, chocolate, caffeine, xylitol, macadamia nuts, or cooked bones.
