Bone Broth Recipe
- First, gather your ingredients. You’ll need some bones (chicken, beef, or pork work great), some veggies like carrots and celery, and some herbs and spices like parsley and turmeric. To make sure your dog’s broth is rich in joint-protecting gelatin, you can choose to use bones with a lot of joints, like chicken feet.
- Next, grab your trusty pressure cooker. Add your bones, veggies, and herbs to the pot, and cover everything with water. And don’t forget to ensure the lid is sealed tightly.
- Set your pressure cooker to high pressure and let it cook for about 2 hours. If you don’t have a pressure cooker, you can also make bone broth quickly on the stove by simmering the ingredients for about2 hours. Add more water as needed.
- Once the broth is done, let it cool down before straining it into a container. You can discard the solids, or give them to your dog as a tasty treat.
- Store the bone broth in the fridge or freezer until you’re ready to use it. You can serve it to your pup as a standalone treat, or mix it in with their regular food for an added nutritional boost. Make sure to use the broth up within a week or two.
