Show your pup how thankful you are this Thanksgiving season!
If your dog has any food allergies or other health issues, please consult your veterinarian before offering these dog recipes or any other new foods.
In honor of giving season, show your dog how much you care with our take on a dog-friendly Thanksgiving feast. We worked with our Executive Chef to bring you an appetizer, entree, and dessert that not only will satisfy your pup’s tastebuds but also provide them with a healthy dinner choice. Plus, we’ve incorporated our Pet Releaf CBD products so your fur friend can receive all of the benefits of CBD, such as supporting a normal inflammatory response as well as promoting calmness if your pet experiences situational stress during the holiday season.
Thanksgiving Appetizer For Your Dog
Our Pumpkin Dip is like your standard chips and dips appetizer, but dog-friendly!
Pumpkin Dip Recipe Ingredients:
- Plain Canned Pumpkin — 2TBS
- Turmeric — ¼ tsp
- Pet Releaf CBD Liposome Hemp Oil — ½ of your pet’s recommended usage amount. Please follow our recommended usage guidelines based on your dog’s weight located on our bottle labels and our website!
- Red, Orange, or Yellow Bell Pepper — ½, sliced
Instructions:
- First, you’ll measure out 2TBS from a can of plain pumpkin into a dish. It’s important to only use the plain pumpkin as we don’t want to feed our dogs anything that has any added sugars or seasonings that are unnecessary for your dog’s body. Adding pumpkin to your dog’s diet may help support a healthy urinary tract and digestive tract!
- Next, you’ll want to sprinkle on ¼ tsp. of turmeric onto the pumpkin puree. Turmeric may help support a normal inflammatory response in dogs as well as support joint discomfort!
- To top it all off, you can add our Liposome Hemp Oil to the mixture. Our Liposome Hemp Oils can be administered during your dog’s mealtime without losing any effectiveness. We have two different potencies in our Liposome Hemp Oils, our Liposome Hemp Oil 100 for small dogs and cats as well as our Liposome Hemp Oil 300 for medium to large breed dogs! We have recommended usage amounts on our packaging labels as well as our website so you can administer the amount based on your dog’s weight. CBD has the potential to promote calmness in dogs, so administering it as an appetizer is a great way to help your dog stay calm while holiday company is over. After you administer the oil onto the dip, mix it all together!
- Lastly, you’ll want to slice up some bell peppers to scoop in the pumpkin dip. Bell peppers have many potential health benefits for dogs as they contain antioxidants and may support ocular and skin health. It’s important to remove any seeds from the bell peppers before serving to your dog to avoid any indigestion issues. Once your peppers are sliced up, you can dip the bell pepper into the dip and feed to your furry friend as an appetizer!
