Dogs like the occasional cool treat just as much as we do, so why not treat them to a homemade ice cream made just for them?
While dairy isn’t terribly good for dogs, yogurt contains much less lactase than regular milk and the live cultures are great for your dog’s digestive system. Use the ice cream just as an occasional treat!
Frosty Paws Dog Ice Cream
32 oz vanilla yogurt
1 mashed banana or one large jar of banana baby food
2 T. peanut butter
2 T honey
Blend all together and freeze in paper cups. Peel away the cups & place in your pets dish to serve. These can also be made in a non-salt automatic ice cream maker and served like regular ice cream in a dish.
DO NOT freeze in ice cube trays as your dog is likely to eat them so fast he’ll choke!

What about the kitties? I tried freezing CatSip in popsicle molds, but my cat wasn’t interested. I think he wants the creamy, bad-for-him stuff.
