Dog popcorn is a popular snack that dog owners and dogs can even share with certain varieties. You may be familiar with the situation when you eat store-bought popcorn and your four-legged friend can only watch because neither salt nor sugar is good for his health. We have two options for how you can avoid this situation in the future or how you can snack together with your four-legged friend: you can either buy dog popcorn or you can make the popcorn yourself. In our BARF online shop you can find dog popcorn with liver , for example, which is made from brown rice. The fat content is less than one percent, which is why it is ideal as a reward during training or as a snack between meals.
If you would rather stick with corn, all you need is a few popcorn kernels and a dash of sunflower oil. Now you can make the dog popcorn yourself. Simply put the kernels in a pot with three tablespoons of oil and heat it with the lid on. First, set the stove to the highest setting, but when the first corn kernels pop, reduce the heat so that the finished dog popcorn does not burn on the bottom. Do not remove the lid until the popping stops. Since you avoid salt, sugar and too much oil in this preparation, you can use this popcorn as a snack for your dog - and enjoy the benefits of corn with its fiber, calcium and magnesium.
If you want to give your dog a special treat, heat liver sausage in a pan until it becomes liquid. Then put the liver sausage in a bowl with the dog popcorn and mix both together vigorously - be careful, it's hot! Then let the liver sausage dog popcorn cool on a baking tray with baking paper before giving it to your dog. This is a delicious addition to your BARF dog food .
