- In the Benji's Kitchen series, we share our favourite healthy dog recipes and discuss anything nutrition-related.
In this episode, we're making a dog-safe bone broth. If you don't have the time or the patience to make one but still want your pup to get the benefits of bone broth, check out our dehydrated bone broth dogslounge.co.uk/products/bro...
Ingredients
- 1-2kg of meat bones
- water
- vegetables
- apple cider vinegar
Other
- slow cooker
Method
1. Fill up the pot with bones, leaving enough room for about an inch of water over the top of the bones. Add the apple cider vinegar.
2. Set the slow cooker to low and let it cook.
3. After a few hours, use tongs to remove bones carefully. Push marrow into the soup using a knife and return the bones to the pot.
4. Cook for around 24 hours. If the bones are bigger, you can cook for longer.
5. Unplug the slow cooker, remove the lid and let it cool.
6. Remove the bones with tongs or-if you've used small bones-let the broth cool for a while, then strain.
7. Once cool enough, put the liquid in the fridge and leave for a few hours. Scrap off and discard the top layer of fat.
8. Serve as a liquid with meals or on its own. Alternatively, pour it into small silicone ice cube trays, freeze it, and serve it during meals.
Storage
You can refrigerate the broth for 4-5 days.

Love the suggestion of freezing in small portions. Great idea!!
Yes, it’s perfect as there’s no waste ☺️
❤Thank you so very much 💖 🐾💯
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching
That was really helpful. I've tried many times to make bonebroth, but I don't think I used enough vinegar. I will say, though, that I take out the carrots, freeze them in a single layer on a silpat lined cookie sheet, and then give them as treats for my dogs. They're especially nice in hot weather. They don't make a mess on the floor, unlike a liquid popsicle or ice cube. So, I get two in one.
Wow, very informative. Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for such great information! Really very helpful!
Thank you for watching!
Thanks for sharing
This is wonderful. Thank you for sharing. ❤
Thank you for watching!
Thanks for sharing! Can I use a pressure cooker instead of slow cooker? If so, how long should I cook for?
Yes, you can use a pressure cooker too! Cook on high pressure for 3 hours for poultry bones, and 4.5 hours for beef, pork, or mixed bones. After that time allow for the pressure to release naturally and check the bones - if all the connective tissue, tendons, and cartilage have dissolved and the bones crumble a bit when you poke at them, it means you've cooked it long enough. If not, add an extra 30 minutes of cooking time. Hope it helps!
Thank you for this video!!!! Question: what bones are safe for dogs? The WARNING at the end confused me…. 🙏🏼
Any NON-COOKED bone ( raw bone ). Of appropriate size for your dog.
Cooked bones can chip and/or splinter.
My pups get raw chicken paws (feet) every night with dinner, sometimes, chicken, duck, goose, turkey neck.
Doesn't matter if it's poultry, beef, or pork bones, as long as they are RAW.
Raw bones appropriate for your dog’s size - you wouldn’t give a lamb spine and ribs to a chihuahua but a chicken wing tip would be good. Also, we’d advise against feeding weight bearing bones as these are denser and can cause damage especially for heavy chewers. Hope it helps!
I love how the big dog is very interested in getting some of the bone broth. 😁
Benji loves the broth! Can’t wait for it to be cold enough to drink 😅
When I unthaw a cube of bone broth and it is gelatin should I add some water to it or just mix it in his kibble at feeding time…
Yes, you can just mix it in with kibble without adding extra water. It should cover the kibble nicely :)
Do u have to use apple vinegar
Hi Joe, no, you don't have to use apple cider vinegar. However, it helps pull all the minerals and nutrients out of the bones and into the broth, hence why it's recommended. Broth made without ACV will not be as thick or nutritious because the acidity found in ACV breaks down the collagen and makes it more abundant in the broth. We hope this helps!
@@dogslounge OK thanks for letting me know
I'm using chicken feet instead for bone broth for my Dog.
You can use various bones to make broth and chicken feet are about 70% collagen, so great choice!
Gross 🤮
What about just feeding bones to. dogs - they can digest bones!
Yes, you can feed bones to your dog. However, please remember not all bones are safe. For example, weight-bearing, cooked or smoked bones should never be fed because they can splinter and cause damage to your dog's oesophagus, stomach, and intestines. Dogs possess a highly acidic environment in their stomachs that aids in breaking down bones. This acidity is even more pronounced in raw-fed dogs compared to those fed with kibble, enabling them to digest bones swiftly and effectively. So if your pup is on kibble, start with softer bones, like chicken necks. This will allow their body to adjust acidity levels to break down the bone. Some bones are only meant for chewing, not digesting. These are called recreational bones and include knuckles or necks. Once the bone has been picked clean of all meat, remove it and discard it. Or make broth! This way all the nutrients found in bones can be extracted, and your pup will benefit from them even after they're finished with the meat.
Giving too much bone to your dog can cause them to strain and their poops to be harder and more crumbly - this means your pet has consumed a lot of calcium/bone, so if you notice your pup straining, that may be why. Please always supervise your dog if you give them bones.
