Updated: Dec 28, 2022


You asked for it! You got it! Here is our recipe for our quick and easy bone broth that we serve our senior German Shepherd residents. It doesn't take long, minimal ingredients are needed, and the health benefits for your older German Shepherd are well worth it!

Let's check out the health benefits of home-cooked bone broth.


Health Benefits: 🐾 Nutrient dense 🐾 Rich in collagen 🐾 Magnesium

🐾 Glucosamine Chondrotin 🐾 Great source of Protein


Bone Broth is beneficial for various bodily functions, benefits your dog's gut health, digestive support, skin and coat health, and supports your dog's joint health. It also helps keep dogs hydrated. It also provides that extra boost for older German Shepherds who may have health issues, or even as a nice treat to warm older bones on a cold winter's day. You can genuinely feel good about home-cooked bone broth when serving it to your fur friend.



Look at that jar of yummy goodness!




Here are the ingredients you will need.


  • 4 lbs. Marrow & Joint bones

  • 3 Carrots

  • 3 Celery Stalks

  • 1 TBSP Turmeric

  • 1/2 TSP Black Pepper

  • 1 TBSP of parsley

  • 1 TBSP of Oregano

  • Cover with water

Slow-cook in Instant Pot for 3 hours.

Strain bones from broth and store broth in the refrigerator. Heat up to a warm temperature before serving.


To use: Start with small amounts. You can give your dog a little directly in his bowl or mix it in with his food.


Typical serving size of bone broth is 1 oz per 10 lbs.


**** Take caution when wetting dry food with citric acid in the ingredients because doing so can cause GI upset. ****


If you would like to make your own bone broth for your dog, be sure to include ingredients that are appropriate for dogs.



We like to mix our bone broth in with our home-cooked food for our senior German Shepherds residents to enjoy.
