Quick, Easy DIY Dog Treats Made from Whole Ingredients
Dogs are what they eat, just like humans. What we feed our dogs matters to their longevity, health, and happiness. We all want to keep our 4-legged friends around as long as possible, feeding them healthy dog food that is preferably human grade in nature will keep your bestie by your side longer.
Human grade dog food means that everything used to make it is safe for human consumption, and includes no by-products, rendered meat, chemicals, or fillers. It’s just simple ingredients and whole food.
If you wouldn’t eat it, why would you want your friend to? Get started on the journey to feeding your pup healthy, real ingredients with these dog treat recipes that take under 10 minutes to make.
Chicken and Apple Pupsicle
This summer treat couldn’t be easier. Cool your dog down on hot summer days by combining small apple chunks and chicken broth into a concoction that your pup will love. You’ll need:
- 2-3 medium-sized apples
- 24-32 ounces of chicken broth (if store bought, avoid added salt, onions, and garlic)
- Several ice trays or small plastic containers
Slice apples into chunks and place into your designated container. Pour chicken broth over apples, fill about ¾ of the way. Place in freezer for at least 4 hours. Make your pup’s day by giving them this icy treat.
Pumpkin and Ginger No-Bake Treats
If your dog is afflicted with an upset stomach routinely, it’s probably time to give sensitive stomach dog food a chance. For occasional stomach irritation, these treats are crafted from ingredients that settle sensitive stomachs. For this recipe, you’ll need:
- 15-ounces of pumpkin puree (Can use canned or fresh. However, DON’T use pumpkin pie filling!)
- 2.5 cups of old-fashioned oats plus extra for rolling
- ¼ cup water
- ¼ teaspoon of ginger
In a large bowl, mix the pumpkin puree and the water together, stirring to combine. Pour in oats and mix well. Roll balls sized for your pup in your hands, and then roll into extra oats until they are lightly coated. Refrigerate for a minimum of 12 hours.
