Most dogs eat kibble for their meals, but occasionally, a little chicken can be good for dogs, especially if they have an upset stomach. Preparing chicken for a dog is simple, but if you've never done it before, we've got you covered. - Plain chicken is best. Avoid using any seasonings when preparing the food for your pup.
- Make sure the chicken is thoroughly cooked. You don't want any danger of salmonella.
- Allergies to chicken are possible with pups. If you suspect that your dog is allergic to chicken, talk to your vet.
- Buy boneless chicken breasts. Bones are a choking hazard and can puncture your pup's stomach. Breasts are a lean part of the chicken and best for your dog.
Baking and boiling are the two best ways to prepare chicken for your dog. You can try both to see which your dog prefers. To boil the chicken, add the breasts to a pot of water and bring to a boil. Leave the chicken in the boiling water for around 12 minutes, or until fully cooked. Shred the chicken to help it cool off, and feed it to your dog in small portions. If you want to bake it, put it on a baking sheet, cook it at 400 degrees for 20-30 minutes, and shred it the same way. | | | Image courtesy of Paw Tracks. | | Life Hacks for Dog Owners
Who doesn't love a simple trick that can simplify life? These life hacks come from a writer who has two labs with tons of energy. See if a few of these ideas can simplify your life a bit. - Use the squeegees for a shower on your carpet to pick up dog hair.
- Make quick frozen treats by mixing chicken broth, peanut butter, apples, and carrots in the blender and freezing in ice cube trays.
- Put a shower cap on your dog when bathing them to keep water from entering their ears.
- Baking soda is the best way to get the smell of dog pee out of anything.
- If your dog freaks out during a storm, remove the static electricity build-up in their fur by rubbing a drier sheet over their coat.
- Fill your dog's Kong with four cheese cubes and throw it in the microwave to let the cheese melt. Once melted, put it in the freezer. It's the perfect thing to keep them busy for a long time.
