Let's Talk Bone Broth

Bone broth is loaded with nutrients that are beneficial to yours and your dogs wellbeing and is a great addition to the whole families daily diet

Why we love Bone Broth

Magnolia was diagnosed with leaky gut about 6 months ago, this was a bit of a hangover from feeding dry food for just a short period. The Bone Broth promotes a healthy gut and can literally plug up the holes created from leaky gut.

It helps the liver detox and because of the high level of collagen the bone broth contains it is great for joint health.

Bone Broth is also great for dogs who are unwell as it aids digestion.

You can find bone broth on the shelf of your supermarket or health food store but you can make this so easily at home too, for a lot cheaper! I'm all about saving a dollar but I also love knowing exactly what is in everything I'm feeding the dogs.

How much Bone Broth should you feed your dog?

This will depend on the size of your dog, Waldorf, Astoria and Magnolia sit between 10 - 12kg so we are feeding 100ml per day.

Adult humans can have up to 3 cups of Bone Broth per day, have a google of the benefits of Bone Broth for humans and you will be lapping this goodness up too!
