Frozen Dog Treats For Summer
Hot dog! It's already summer and temperatures are rising. While we're sweltering in the summer heat, our pups get even hotter in their fur coats. To keep your dog cool, occupied, and satisfied while you're out of the house (or as a special treat when you're there) this summer, try these sweet frozen dog treats. Disclaimer: these are for your dogs, don't get too tempted to try them for yourself.

Unsweetened yogurt / Fresh or frozen blueberries
This treat is fruity, creamy, and cold. Your pups will go nuts for these mysterious new flavors. Plus, your dog already loves his treasured Kong toy. Feel free to put your own spin on this recipe—try adding in peanut butter, bananas, or strawberries.
Chicken breasts / Water / Dried parsley
As a staple of many dry dog foods, your pup is likely familiar with the taste of chicken flavoring. This recipe goes one tasty step further by incorporating shredded chicken and homemade chicken broth. Your pup will be drooling as you walk towards the freezer.
Peanut Butter & Jelly Popsicle
Peanut Butter / Fresh or frozen strawberries / Fresh or frozen blueberries / Unsweetened yogurt / Rawhide sticks
A twist on the classic PB&J for your pup. Sweet and creamy peanut butter, followed by tart berries, then finished with a salty rawhide stick—and we have a food connoisseur on our hands. As much as your dog will love this, you will love how happy he or she is even more.

Ground beef / Grated cheese / Chicken broth
What better way to repurpose your BBQ leftovers than to make some savory treats for your pup? Substitute leftover meats, or for the vegan dogs, veggies and hold the cheese.
