The gelatin is wonderful for healthy joints and connective tissue and also gut healing. When the gummy is eaten it will melt in the stomach and allow the herbs to be released and absorbed. You can increase or decrease the amount of gelatin for your dogs needs. Some will prefer a softer chew, while others will prefer a harder chew.
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup cooked meat (this can be ground meat or finely chopped meat or fish such as sardines)
- 1 cup broth or water
- 2 1/2 tablespoons gelatin
- Any McDowells herbal supplement drops you are adding for your dog (optional)
Method
Heat broth or water over a low heat, add gelatin and whisk until combines with no lumps. Add meat and stir until heated through and all gelatin is dissolved.
DO NOT ALLOW TO BOIL
Pour into small moulds and then add one measure of herbal drops per mould.
Place in fridge and allow to set.
Feed as a treat as required for dosing herbs.
For fussy dogs you can start with a smaller dose of the herbs and gradually build up to the full dose as they get used to the treat and start to enjoy them and anticipate them.
