👌 A proper healthy meal!
Even without switching to a BARF diet, it provides all the veg, fruit, and the meat and fish you’d get in a home-cooked diet... ;-)
All types of liver are very good to give every day for our furry friends, along with kidneys and hearts—which are excellent for taurine (hearts from lamb, pork, beef, veal, turkey, chicken, rabbit, and even brains...).
👌 And varying their food for their health is brilliant; that diversity is what makes a healthy bowl.
Lorna: broccoli is one of the best veggies for your pooch, and if you want her to keep her zip, you should mix it with some rosehip or acerola.
Celery too.
We’re heading into winter now, so Oxane will be back on the rosehip, a small amount of citrus fruit, and her one spirulina tablet.
My girl loves cooked veg, she’s got a real soft spot for broccoli! :-)

In small doses, I think it must be brilliant for the digestive system, just like it is for us.
I’m not a vet, but given what’s in cabbage and the benefits of the fermentation... I think it’s all good.
