Hi goldenstar-

All fruits and vegetables (from what I’ve read) contain some calcium (some more than others). As do meats. So basically yes, adding any extras can possibly throw off the ca/phos ratio. However, I think it’s likely that you could add extras in small portions without unbalancing it so much as to put the dog at higher risk for bone disorders.

Truthfully though, I would personally aire on the side of caution until the pup is fully grown before adding any extras besides something like Tripett.
