Does anyone use the Dr. Pitcairn diets?

I've used them because my dogs has medical issues. They are great but a lot of work. I found a happy medium by buying Dr. Harvey's mix which is organic combination of vegetables and carbs and fruit that provide the needed calcium and micro nutrients and vitamins and then I add partially cooked protein and oil. the mix takes care of me worrying if I am missing anything essential and figuring out the correct amount of all these different ingredients.. the prep takes no more than 8 minutes on days when I am preparing the mix and protein in advance and can be as short as 4 minutes.
