Red White and Blue Frozen Yogurt Dog Treats

There’s nothing better than a frozen treat on a hot summer day, especially when it’s one your pup can enjoy with you! These Red, White & Blue Frozen Yogurt Dog Treats are a festive, 3-ingredient snack that’s healthy, easy to make, and Great Dane-approved.

Magnus loves frozen treats, and I love how quickly these treats are to prepare. Whether you’re celebrating the 4th of July or just want a cool dog-friendly treat for a hot day, these are a staple in our freezer all summer long.

🐾 Why You’ll Love These Dog-Friendly Frozen Yogurt Treats

• Only 3 wholesome dog-safe ingredients
• No added sugars or artificial dyes which can be toxic for dogs
• Perfect for large or small dogs
• Can be customized with seasonal dog-friendly fruit
• Patriotic theme for the 4th of July

Ingredients

• Plain Greek Yogurt: Use regular, plain, and unsweetened. Great source of probiotics and protein.
• Fresh or Frozen Strawberries (or Fresh Watermelon): For the red layer. Rich in antioxidants and vitamin C. If using frozen, choose a brand that has no added sugars or sweeteners. For fresh strawberries, wash and remove stem top. For watermelon, remove seeds before pureeing.
• Fresh or Frozen Blueberries: For the blue layer. A low-sugar, antioxidant-rich fruit for dogs. Same as with the strawberries – if using frozen, choose a brand that has no added sugars or sweeteners.

Equipment

• Silicone molds or ice cube trays (I use XL silicone molds for Magnus!)
• Food processor or blender (to puree the fruit)
• Small spoon (for layering)

How to Make Red, White & Blue Dog Treats

1. Add a layer of pureed strawberries or watermelon to the mold or ice cube tray. Freeze.
2. Add a layer of yogurt next. Freeze again.
3. Add a layer of pureed blueberries over frozen yogurt. Freeze one final time until solid.

Once fully frozen, pop them out and store in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months.

Tips

• You may need to add water to the berries when puréing, especially if they are frozen. Add about 1/4 cup water to start, adding more if needed.
• If you do not have a blender, then you can add yogurt to the mold and press berries into the yogurt. Your pup will love it and give them something to chew as well.

Important Notes

• Serving size depends on your dogs size, weight, age, and activity level. For Magnus, he’s huge at a lean 170 lbs., he’s young and fairly active for a Dane. What we give him is different from our others Danes who are older and less active. A good rule of thumb is 1-2 types of treats/day.
• It’s important to check with your veterinarian when concerned about amounts to give or new foods for your dog.
• Another important note – some dogs do not tolerate frozen treats. In this case, it is recommended to serve cold not frozen.
