I was wondering if it would be safe and beneficial to add Bragg Liquid Aminos to dogs' food?
My dogs are on raw diet with occasional cooked dog-safe human food for variety (lentil soup, chicken soup, steamed vegetables). I do not add salt or any ingredients that are not known to be safe for dogs when cooking.
Another item I am considering is Naked Superfood - a blend of juices that potentially could be given in small amounts for all the good stuff that's in there.
Somehow the messy pulping of the vegetables and grasses never took off in our house

No knowledge about those products. Just wanted to offer that there is no reason to pulp veggies. Freezing them is just as good.
The objective with processing any vegetable matter for dogs is to break the cell walls to make the nutrients available. Dogs can't digest cellulose, the substance that makes plant cell walls. Cooking and pureeing do that, but so does freezing. Water expands when frozen, bursting cell walls. That's why thawed frozen veggies are mushy. And why feeding a raw carrot will come out the same as it went in. But not a frozen carrot.
So if you want to feed odd vegetable and fruit bits to your dog, just toss these scraps into a freezer bag, then feed frozen or thawed. No blender needed.

Thanks, Tracy, great news!
That's what all those bagged frozen vegetables are for, then
In the juice blend spirulina, chlorella, wheat grass and and barley grass look particularly appealing since this is not something we usually buy separately.

As long as your soups are onion free, I don't see why not. I bet they would love it!
The only thing I do that I know they love is the chicken I have boiled and saved to give as baited water when they are sick.
I don't know much about either of these two other items.
But if they are fed a raw diet, I would assume they are getting a ton of natural aminos with their meals. So I wouldn't think it was necessary. But that said, maybe there is some benefit I don't know about.
