The PAWSOME Benefits of Bone Broth

The PAWSOME Benefits of Bone Broth

If you eat meat or poultry, bone broth might already be a part of your diet – and it's a fantastic addition to your furry mate's meals, too. Let’s take a journey back thousands of years to discover why!

Bone broth has nourished humans since prehistoric times. Our ancestors made nutrient-rich stock from animal parts like bones, hooves, and knuckles. Across cultures, bone broth has been praised for its health benefits – from the Chinese, who used it to support digestion, to Hippocrates, who recommended it for cleansing the body.

But what makes bone broth so beneficial for you and your pet?

Animal bones contain essential minerals like calcium, magnesium, and collagen. Slow simmering these bones releases nutrients into a broth that's easy to digest and packed with goodness. While bone broth shouldn't replace a balanced diet or supplements, it’s a simple, natural way to support your dog's health.
