How To Make Kibble Broth & Frozen Kong Popsicle

Broth is a great filling for your dog's Kong to freeze in the summer. So, if you're fresh out, or just don't buy broth, then there must be a way to make your dog some at home. And luckily for you, there is! Today, I'm going to show you how to make simple kibble broth in your own kitchen. It takes 5 minutes, in only 8 simple steps! Anyone can do this, and I mean anyone!

All you will need is a bowl, a handful of kibble and access to water.

Before you begin making the broth, and if you plan to fill a Kong with it, plug the small end of your Kong with peanut butter or soft cheese.

1. Fill your bowl up with water.

2. Drop your handful of kibbles into the bowl.

3. Use your hands to mash the kibbles up into smaller pieces. The crumbs of the kibble will linger in the water, meaning the water will taste more of the kibble juices when your dog has a taste!

At this stage, the broth should look a little like this, depending on what kibble type you used:


4. Now, you are ready to fill your dog's Kong with the broth. Use a jug or a spoon to do so, to avoid spilling. Fill to the top.

5. Place in a cup, with the larger end facing upwards, the small plugged end down.

6. Freeze.

7. Once frozen, quickly run under water, to ensure your dog doesn't get his tongue stuck to it!

8. Give to your dog once frozen - and all it cost was some water and a handful of kibble!

Earl has a quick lick.

Now you know how to make a homemade broth for your dog, which is nice served frozen in a Kong!

  2. Our Kongs don't have a plug for the small end, so anything runny runs right out :(

    1. No, you're supposed to plug them yourself, with something like soft cheese, then freeze!
