Honey has loads of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants to boost!<\/p>\n<p>Bone Broth: Pet-safe bone broth (no onions, leeks, or added sodium) is a wonderful way to hydrate your dog and provide health benefits like reduced inflammation! This can usually be purchased at your local pet store in the freezers or easily made at home.<\/p>\n<p>Cooked Chicken: Lean muscle building, packed with protein and flavor that dogs love. Adding this in chunks gives them something to work for.<\/p>\n<p>Parsley: Absolutely loaded with vitamins and minerals and helps freshen breath all the way to the gum line.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h5>About the Author<\/h5>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-2172\" src=\"https:\/\/www.petworks.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/samantha-henson-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Samantha Henson\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.petworks.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/samantha-henson-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/staging.petworks.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/samantha-henson-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/staging.petworks.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/samantha-henson-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/staging.petworks.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/samantha-henson.jpg 573w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><em>Samantha has spent the last 12 years dedicating her life to the health and wellness of animals.
