Let’s Get Frozen
Some nice, Icy Treats to Beat the Heat
As the weather starts to heat up, we all want to find ways to cool down and enjoy some sweet treats. But why should humans have all the fun? Our furry friends also deserve some delicious frozen treats to enjoy on those hot summer days. So, grab your pup and let's get started on making some tasty and healthy frozen treats!
PB & BANANA POPS
First up, we have the classic peanut butter and banana popsicles. These are super easy to make and your pup will go crazy for them! Simply blend together some ripe bananas and peanut butter (make sure it's unsweetened and preferably organic), pour the mixture into ice cube trays or popsicle molds, and freeze. Once frozen, pop them out of the molds and watch as your dog happily chomps away.
FROYO PUP BITES
Next, we have frozen yogurt bites. This is a great option if your pup is lactose intolerant or has trouble digesting dairy products. All you need is some plain, unsweetened yogurt (again, organic is preferable), and your dog's favorite fruit. We recommend using organic, fresh berries like strawberries or blueberries, as they are low in sugar and high in antioxidants. Simply mix the yogurt and fruit together, spoon into an ice cube tray or silicone mold, and freeze. Once frozen, pop them out of the molds for your pup to enjoy.
WATERMELON PUPSICLES
Another great option is watermelon pupsicles. Watermelon is a great source of hydration and is also low in calories, making it the perfect summer snack. Simply use a blender to puree some watermelon chunks (without the seeds, of course), pour into ice cube trays or popsicle molds, and freeze until ready to eat.
SAVORY SOUP BITES
Last but not least, we have frozen bone broth cubes. This is a great option if your pup needs some extra hydration or protein or if they are recovering from an illness or surgery. Simply find your favorite bone broth. We use an organic, free range, low-sodium chicken broth and organic, grass fed, beef broth in our treats. Pour it into ice cube trays, and freeze. Once frozen, pop them out of the molds and watch as your dog happily chews away on their nutritious and cooling treat.
So, there you have it, Bupsters! Easy and healthy frozen treats to keep your fur fam cool and happy this summer. Remember, as with any new food, introduce these treats slowly and in small amounts to ensure that your dog's digestive system is okay with them. And most importantly, have fun while enjoying some quality time this summer!
