“I believe acupuncture is the number one method for arthritis. Number two is homeopathy. … Years ago I learned about a special arthritis diet…many animals improve on this diet alone.”—A. Greig Howie, DVM

Thanks Annie.
Apart from that, it looks tasty, healthy and cheap. For humans I'd add spice, turmeric, ginger and cumin.
Slightly ambiguous title. Care2 recommends stewing dogs?
Thanks for the article.
I've used this recipe with and without the meat, and my dogs have loved it. I've even eaten it myself, though it's a bit bland for human tastes!
If you don't want your dog having diarrea, then skip the lentils.
Thanks for he info. Sharing it with my dog loving friends.
Given that the first two options mentioned have no scientific basis and no evidence that they work in properly controlled trials, I find it hard to believe that the third will be any more effective if subjected to proper scrutiny but some evidence that isn't annecdotal would be interesting.
Thanks for the info.
