I almost forgot and I must admit, there is nothing really "magic" about it ... wish there were. As, I have said many times .. Toto is absolutely
the most stubborn Yorkie on the face of this earth! When she doesn't want something, she digs in with all four paws! She had an infection once and was so close to dehydration I was terrified! I begged the vet not to keep her ... I figured there was nothing
they could do that I could not! I quickly thought about it on the way home with her ... I only had a few hours and I would have to give up for hospitalization! This is what I did ....
I grabbed a bag of boneless, skinless chicken tenders from the freezer and thawed them in cold water. I drained them well on paper towels and sprinkled the top side with dehydrated, crushed parsley [no time for fresh!]. I sprinkled maybe 1/8 t. garlic powder ... figured it would entice her and that's not enough to harm. I browned them quickly in just a couple tablespoons of hot virgin olive oil. I then added about 6 bottles of ice cold bottled water and brought it to a boil. Turned it on low and simmered for about an hour and then strained it through a fine strainer. After I cooled some and offered it to Toto she drank it like a demon! I let the vet know and he had me give her about 2 T every hour until she was feeling better!! So, we named it the Magic Broth and I am seldom without it in the freezer. I use it in our food too. It has very little, if any, fat in it and tastes really good!!
Sooooooo .... my dirty little secret is out ...... I almost forgot, the main ingredient is a ton of love!!
