ACV also contains natural malic and tartaric acids which are important in fighting body toxins and inhibiting unfriendly bacteria. There are claims that the additional acidity of ACV helps the digestion process. Many dogs like the taste of it, and it even makes the RMBs smell less raw meaty-like. Many people soak the RMBs in ACV prior to feeding, to aide with the digestion of bones. Soaking a raw bone in vinegar kmakes it softer and less prone to splintering. Also, a teaspoon of ACV (daily) in your dog’s food also removes tear stains (for those with very light-colored dogs). Results are usually begun to be seen in 7 to 10 days.

It turned rubbery! hummmm..some food for thought for those of you afraid of splintering bones. Again, the option to use ACV is purely another personal choice…some do and some don’t. Oh, a teaspoon of ACV (daily) in your dog’s food also removes tear stains (for those with very light-colored dogs). R
