starting slowly on homemade food

Hi All,

I have been toying with the idea of making my dogs food instead of buying it. It's not for the economics of it (nice bonus though) but more because I like to know what they are eating and how much.

Currently our dogs are on Wellness (Complete Health Chicken for the 2 year old, and "Just for Puppy" for our 6 mo old).

In talking to our puppy kindergarden teacher she suggested mixing in some oatmeal with their Kibble. She suggested that i make 4 cups of oatmeal (using plain organic oats and water) add in one egg right after i take it off the stove (mixing it in there good and allowing the heat to cook the egg) and adding in some pureed fruits (strawberries and pineapples). She suggested adding one cup of this mixture to their daily dry kibble (which would be reduce by one cup to compensate)

i'm just curious as to what the community here thinks before i go ahead and try this.

thanks in advance
