Tips
- Place silicone molds on a baking sheet before filling to make transporting to the freezer easier.
- Choose the size of your homemade treats based on the size of your dog. Use smaller molds for small dogs and larger molds for larger dogs.
- Treats should account for no more than 10% of your dog’s daily caloric intake.
- Pineapple is rich in vitamin C and hydration-boosting juice, but it’s also naturally sweet, so serve these treats in moderation.
- Never give your dog the spiny skin of a pineapple or the pineapple core, as these parts can pose a choking hazard to dogs.
- Always use plain Greek yogurt (no added sugar or flavors). Avoid any yogurt that contains artificial sweeteners like xylitol, which is toxic to dogs.
- Store the frozen treats in an airtight container or resealable bag for up to 2–3 months in the freezer.
- Always consult your veterinarian before giving your dog a new food, especially if they have food sensitivities, allergies, or other health conditions.
