He had developed myasthenia gravis, and his immune system went haywire. The only thing he could eat was rice and ground beef with vitamins added. There is a great book on home-cooked diets for dogs. I don’t remember the name of it, but it is by Volhard. Might be out of print by now.

The dog who owns us now is 70 pounds, so home cooking would be quite expensive, however, he gets small amounts of tasty, healthy people food in his meals.
