Boil chicken in a large pot until fully cooked.

Remove chicken and let it cool slightly.

Cut yams into quarters and boil in the same water until soft.

Peel the yams and mash them with a fork.

Drain most of the chicken water, leaving about 3.5 cups in the pot.

Return the chicken water to a boil.

Add oats to the boiling chicken water and cook on medium heat for approximately 6 minutes, or until the water is absorbed.

Let the oatmeal cool.

Shred the cooked chicken into small pieces, or use a food processor to pulse until the desired size is achieved.

In a large bowl, combine shredded chicken and mashed yams or sweet potatoes. Stir until well combined.

Add the cooked oatmeal to the bowl and mix thoroughly. Then, add cottage cheese and continue stirring until all ingredients are evenly distributed.

Divide the mixture into portions appropriate for your dog's size.

Store individual portions in freezer bags for up to 5-6 weeks.
