Cue up cabbage! There’s a lot more to cabbage than coleslaw and sauerkraut! This underutilised gem is a nutritious, versatile, accessible, and affordable addition to your dog's diet. It has a long storage life and most dogs love it (in moderations 💨)

Say hello to Bingo! This was him after a trek in the Negev desert. 🐶 🐾 ☀️ His owner also shared a few photos of his very first home-cooked batch, complete with pots, bowls and the happy chaos that comes with it. 😆 To anyone who’s just started out with home cooking, it might feel a little overwhelming at first, but I promise it gets much easier (and quicker!) after a couple of cooks. 🙌 ❤️

The Benefits (and Risks) of Fat-Soluble Vitamins 🐾 Vitamins A, D, E, and K are fat-soluble vitamins, meaning they’re stored in your dog’s body fat and liver instead of being removed in urine. 🐶 ⚠️ Because they build up over time, too much can be harmful – this is especially seen when dogs are fed excess liver or cod liver oil. Vitamin A 👉 Supports vision, skin, and immune health Vitamin D 👉 Helps regulate calcium and bone strength Vitamin E 👉 Protects cells with antioxidant power Vitamin K 👉 Essential for normal blood clotting
