There are a few things that your recipe can be deficient in. Making homemade food is great, if you make sure it is balanced or if you change recipes often so that you balance over time. But if you keep feeding the same unbalances recipe, day in and day out, that can mean much bigger problems than loss of hair at pressure points.

You need a wider variety of recipes. Look for Steve Brown’s book “Unlocking the Canine Ancestral Diet” and Dr Karen Becker’s book “Real Food for Healthy Dogs and Cats” to learn more about balancing a diet and for more recipes.
