It’s also a recipe for you, who has: * the Boxer who’ll eat rocks - and thank you for them- if you put it in his bowl * the sick dog who doesn’t want to take her pill * the dog celebrating a birthday or milestone * the curiosity about a treat made with sardines This recipe is adapted from the good folks at The Honest Kitchen and it’s loaded with antioxidants.

Ingredients: 1 tin of sardines (in water, no salt added) 1/4 c diced green beans (blanched) 1/4 c diced cucumber 1/4 c cottage cheese or Greek yogurt Directions: Dump sardines into medium bowl, mash up large pieces with a fork. Add remaining ingredients and mix well with large spoon. Spoon as much as desired* directly onto your dog’s food. Serve and watch how quickly it goes!
