Its a million degrees outside, and rather than just giving your dog ice cubes, here are a few recipes for frozen dog treats that I have tried in the past and really work great.

(Also, I'm really trying to revive this forum)

Frozen Peanut Butter Yogurt Treats
1-32oz. container of vanilla yogurt
1 cup of peanut butter


Put the paenut butter in a microwave safe dish and microwave until melted.
Mix the yogurt and the melted peanut butter in a bowl.
Pour mixture into paper cupcake liners and freeze.

Makes about 12 treats


Icy Paws
Ingredients:
2 cartons plain or vanilla yogurt (32 oz each)
1 small can tuna in water (8oz.)
2 tsp. garlic power
24 3 oz. plastic cups (not paper)

Open yogurt containers, if they are full to the top use a spoon & scoop out one cup (these will be frozen as plain yogurt).
Put half of the can of tuna in each yogurt container add the garlic power (1 tsp. in each) & stir thoroughly.
Use a spoon & scoop the mixture into the cups. Place on a tray & freeze overnight.

Makes about 24 treats


Fruit Pops (this is good for people too)
1 Quart fruit juice
1 banana, mashed
1/2 cup yogurt


Mix ingredients together thoroughly, then freeze. I like to freeze it in an iced cube tray, but you can use whatver you'd like, a popsicle tray would work fine, add popsicle sticks for humans.

these sound great steph. although... i don't want ANY of that on my carpet... which is where thora likes to enjoy ALL her treats. darn puppy.

haha yeah they're best to be had on the kitchen floor or in the yard

awesome, will make for my buds.

i think i'll just make these for myself.

I would eat any of these except the icy paws.

Nah, in regular amounts, garlic is fine to give to dogs. Its onions that you should never give them, due to the fact that a generous servcing will cause Heinz factor anemia because of their high concentration of thiosulphate.

Garlic is a cousin of the onion, but absolutely does not contain as high of a concentration of this compound. In actuality, it is barely traceable and readily excreted. They would need to eat like a pound of garlic to get sick.
