We are creating some treats for the holiday season, including yummy little gingerbread men! Besides just its scent making a home smell incredible and ready for the holidays, did you know GINGER is nutritious and can be beneficial for our dogs?
Ginger is one of the oldest medicinal herbs used by ancient Chinese and Indian healers for centuries. A proven anti-inflammatory and stomach-calming herb, it has been valued as a digestive aid since the Middle Ages So, if your dog has stomach issues or digestive problems, ginger is an excellent ingredient for them! In some alternative veterinary medicine practices, it is recommended to combine ginger with garlic in dogs' foods to replace the need for NSAID (aspirin-type) medications (often given for pain or joint discomfort).
Wow, who would think one small ingredient could give such a positive punch?! It can be added in many of our Southern Inspired Treats, too, including sweet potato and pumpkin treats, to give extra spice!
