Description

This homemade bone broth for dogs is a nourishing, slow-simmered recipe that supports gut health, joint function, and immune strength. Made with natural, dog-safe ingredients, it’s an easy way to boost your pup’s meals with rich nutrients and flavor.

Ingredients

Scale

2–3 lbs of raw bones (chicken feet, beef marrow bones, turkey necks, or a mix)
1–2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar
10–12 cups of filtered water
Optional: A small handful of chopped parsley or celery
Optional: 1/2 tsp turmeric + a dash of black pepper

Instructions

Rinse the raw bones to remove any residual blood or debris.
Place bones in a large stockpot or slow cooker.
Add apple cider vinegar to help extract minerals from the bones.
Pour in filtered water until the bones are covered by 1–2 inches.
Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce to a very low simmer.
Simmer for 12–24 hours (for poultry bones) or 24–48 hours (for beef/lamb bones).
In the last 30 minutes, add optional herbs or dog-safe extras.
Strain the broth carefully using a mesh sieve or cheesecloth.
Let cool, skim off excess fat if desired, and store in jars or freeze in silicone molds.

Notes

Never add onions, garlic, or salt—they’re toxic to dogs.
Use bones from organic or grass-fed animals for best results.
Freeze in small portions for easy serving.
Let broth cool before serving to your dog.
Introduce slowly to dogs with sensitive stomachs.
