Thanks for using petcoach! I think it is great that you want to cook for your dogs. I would recommend reaching out to a veterinary nutritionist (such as the University of Tennessee's veterinary nutrition program) or online resource (such as balanceit.com) to help you determine the appropriate recipes and any supplements your dogs may need. As you are dogs of differing ages, they do have different metabolic demands that may necessitate two separate diets for the time being. Good luck!
