How to make liver water

Add two cups of water to pan and add 2 strips of liver.  Bring water to a boil and thoroughly boil the liver.  After the liver is fully cooked remove the liver and set it aside in a dish.  Feed the liver to your nursing Mom after it cools down, as it is a great source of nutrition for her. Grab strainer, bowl and coffee filter.  Place the coffee filter inside the strainer and place the strainer over the bowl.  Pour the liver water into the coffee filter.  The coffee filter will collect the small pieces of liver while straining.  After you have poured the liver water into the bowl you need to set up your ice cube trays.  Use a dropper to fill the ice cubes trays with the liver water.  Freeze the liver water.  After the liver water has been frozen place the frozen liver water cubes into a container to keep in your freezer for storage.

Once you notice that you have a puppy who is acting off such as being lethargic grab one liver water cube.  Warm the liver water cube to melt.  We place the cube into a sealed plastic zip lock bag and boil it.  We don’t like to use the microwave to melt the ice cube because we want to have control over the temperature of the liver water.
