{RECIPE} Easy Neapolitan Frozen Yogurt Summer Dog Treats

Tomorrow is the first official day of summer here (although it feels more like hot chocolate weather today), and we're sneaking in a quick and cool summer treat to celebrate. We'll be back tomorrow to begin our December Barkmas Bonanza with a Christmas post every weekday until we begin our holidays. Woofs!

{RECIPE} Autumn Apple Puppy Pie Dog Treats

 

These quick and fruity dog treats smell great! Our fruit-fan dogs thought they were pretty tasty, too. For those of you enjoying the cool days of autumn and freshly harvested apples, you can swap pureed fresh apple for sauce and adjust your liquid/flour quantities if needed to get a nice workable dough. Our apple trees are in blossom at the moment, but there is never a wrong time of year for pie, is there? 

{RECIPE} Berry Bliss Ball Dog Truffle Treats

Fresh, fruity, and doggone delicious! Whether sharing some of the seasons harvest or prepping a tasty treat from frozen fruits, these truffle treats are very easy to make and pretty doggone healthy too.

{RECIPE} Strawberry Banana Truffle Dog Treats

Fresh, fruity, and doggone delicious!  If you have strawberries growing in your garden (we currently do - yum!) or have splurged on berries for Valentine's Day, why not share a few with your dogs in a special homemade fruit truffle dog treat?  These simple no-bake treats are doggone delicious!

{RECIPE} Strawberry & Carob Frozen Yogurt Treats

It isn't our usual Wednesday recipe day, but with the recent hot weather here, we added a quick and easy extra to the post plan for any other hot dogs sizzling through summer (sorry to those of you freezing your fur off in the Northern Hemisphere!).  Made in the same style as our easy ice pop star dog treats, you (or the kids) can make these easy homemade frozen yogurt dog treats in just a minute or two, plus freezing time. Fresh and fruity or chocolatey carob? Choices choices!  Why not both?

{RECIPE} Strawberry Banana & Mint Dog Muffins

Yesterday we shared a special post all about the healthy fruits, veggies, and herbs for dogs, so it seemed only fitting that our weekly recipe be a deliciously fruity treat.  This small-batch muffin recipe is quick and simple, and smells AMAZING.  Go ahead and taste one yourself if you wish - they aren't sweet like many of our human muffins, but they are packed with nutritional goodness and flavour.  Added bonus: these made our dogs' breath smell awesome!  Perhaps a recipe to bake up before sharing any Valentine's Day puppy dog kisses?  Strawberries and mint are readily available here at the moment, including straight out of our garden, but you can also substitute - see the tips at the end of our post.
