Ingredients
Scale
For the Blueberry Puree:
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (unsweetened, non-fat)
- ½ cup blueberries (fresh or frozen, thawed)
- 1 tablespoon honey (optional, use only if approved by your vet)
- Water as needed for blending
Instructions
- Prepare the Blueberry Puree: Place blueberries in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. If the mixture is too thick, add a small splash of water to help it blend.
- Mix the Yogurt: In a small bowl, stir together Greek yogurt and honey if using.
- Fill the Molds: Spoon a small amount of the blueberry puree into silicone dog paw molds. Then spoon the yogurt mixture on top, creating a swirl by gently mixing with a toothpick or skewer.
- Freeze the Treats: Tap the mold gently on the counter to eliminate air bubbles and level the mixture. Freeze for at least 3–4 hours or until completely solid.
- Store and Serve: Once frozen, pop the treats out of the mold and store them in an airtight container in the freezer.
Notes
- Use plain yogurt with no artificial sweeteners or added sugar.
- You can substitute strawberries or pumpkin puree for variety.
- Always check with your vet before introducing new ingredients to your dog’s diet.
