This is like a gourmet cookbook but for dogs. Don't we all want to do things to help our pet family live long, healthy lives? This book fills the bill, because not only does it touch on really good recipes for day-to-day dinners, but it also includes recipes to help with tummy troubles and other issues. You can find out how to make natural eye washes, coat refresher spray, toothpaste, ear cleaner, dandelion oil and salve for wounds and a nice paw soak and pet wipes.
There are dog biscuits and greens powders for vitamins. There are treats, like the Sunchoke chips. Or you can try recipes like Beef Mexican Fiesta, Beef and Chicken, Forager's Delight and others. The authors add, "The Forever Dog life introduces you to the most nutrient-dense Forever Foods that will boost your pets' health and it offers a multitude of feeding techniques, DIY tricks, Research highlights, nutrition information, tools, and household and money-saving tips.
