Pampered Pooch Rice and Lamb Casserole

By: KCFOXY Supporting Member (Click to learn more about Supporting Membership)
"Tired of purchasing canned dog food our two large rescue dogs wouldn't eat, I decided to make pooch-friendly chow that was savory and good for them. I use converted rice, but pasta, bulgur, or quinoa may all be substituted."
