Monsoon Tummy Soothing Pumpkin Mash

A simple, gentle mash combining sweet pumpkin, cooling curd, and soothing ginger to help settle your dog's stomach during the humid monsoon season.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup pureed Pumpkin (plain, canned or boiled & mashed)
  • 1/2 cup fresh plain Curd (yogurt)
  • 1/4 tsp Ginger powder or freshly grated ginger
  • 1/2 tsp Honey (optional)

Health Notes

Verification

Pumpkin is a miracle ingredient for digestion, providing soluble fiber that helps with both loose stools and constipation. Curd provides natural probiotics, while ginger settles a rumbling belly. It's our go-to recovery bowl when Shiro has a minor monsoon stomach bug.

Perfect For

All ages (Puppies 4+ months)

Shiro's Method

1

If using fresh pumpkin, peel, de-seed, boil, and mash it thoroughly until smooth. Let it cool completely.

2

In a bowl, mix the cooled pumpkin puree with fresh plain curd.

3

Add the ginger powder or freshly grated ginger. Ginger is excellent for reducing mild nausea and gut inflammation.

4

Whisk the mixture until creamy. You can stir in a small drop of honey if your dog is hesitant.

5

Feed directly as a meal topper, spread on a lick mat, or freeze in small molds for a cooling tummy-soothing treat.

Storage

Keep refrigerated and use within 2 days, or freeze for up to 2 weeks.

Serving Amount

2-3 tablespoons as a meal topper for large breeds
