Point

• Cooling the broth naturally can take time, which may make it easier for bacteria to grow. Cool it quickly with ice water or cooling packs.
• Use a larger ice cube tray so the cubes are not small enough for your dog to swallow whole.
• You can also crush the ice before serving.
• Adjust the amount according to your dog's weight, condition, age, and environment, and watch your dog carefully when serving.
• Take extra care with puppies and small dogs to prevent choking.
• After freezing, transfer the cubes to a freezer bag, remove excess air, and store frozen.
• Use as soon as possible, as the flavor may gradually fade.
• You can freeze your dog's favorite ingredients as toppings. When using a new ingredient, start with a small amount.

Notes

• Avoid giving too much cold food at one time.
• Start with a small amount and adjust according to your dog's constitution and digestive condition.
• If your dog has a medical condition or dietary restriction, consult your veterinarian before serving.
