Treats

[Mooshi's Mummy]

I would assume a yogurt with no flavor? I vaguely remember someone telling me it was best to use one that didn't have any flavor added to it. However I could be wrong! When Duchess was smaller I would take a small kong & fill it with canned dog food & freeze it. She loved that. Now that she's bigger she doesn't know what to do with the big kong. We have the black one & I put some peanut butter in it the other day & she would lick it then stand up & paw at it. I guess she couldn't figure out how it worked.

Aww bless her, I can just see it now. Dont worry though, she will soon figure it out if its got yummy peanut butter in it. I think I'll buy two small kongs and do the frozen yogurt thing and see what my two make of it. I may add a bit of natural honey to make it super yummy though. Only 'cause they are spoiled rotten.

Ruth what flavor yogurt? Do you use the large kongs (the black ones) when you do this?

No flavor, just plain. Apollo LOVES yogurt. And I have, but which ever kong is handy when I'm doing it. Or bone, we've a couple hollow white bones floating around, and I've done it with them too.

And you fill it completely with yogurt? Nothing else in there? To the top? Sorry if I sould stupid but I've not tried that one yet so want to make sure I know what Im doing. Cant wait to try it!!

The kongs yes, just yogurt, the bones I'll 'plug' with peanut butter first though cause they're harder to prop upright in the freezer.

We've got a hallow bone I'm gonna try that with! Never thought of that!

 

[ruthcatrin]

Melting yogurt's a bit messy FYI, though Apollo generally licks it up anyway.

 

[Mooshi's Mummy]

Im going to try it too! I think I will spoil them just that bit extra though and put a bit of honey in with the yogurt too, or peanut butter. Mmmmm.

I give mine all kinds of fruits and veggies, and also the PureBites freeze dried duck livers cut up into small pieces for training, as well as lamb lungs.
