Easy frosty paws




How about something cold to eat?

Pick snap peas

Blanch 3--45 sec. and cool in ice water

Visualize whirled peas

a






Add plain yogurt, maybe 1 cup.

You can also add an egg

Blend in egg

I poured some into coop cups, which are also used as water bowls in small crates.  Some people pour the contents into paper cups but I used these because the dogs can lick out the contents rather than crunch up the whole thing in ten seconds. A few blueberries add decoration.

And I poured some into Kongs and put them all in the freezer.


 Indoor dining kept Miro busy for all of ten minutes.
Outdoor dining
The two had to eat in separate quarters; otherwise Miro would take Alanis' treat afte finishing his.

  7. That is so clever! I am going to try this for Savannah. She loves ice cream, but sometimes barfs after eating it too fast. This would be a much healthier alternative.

    Love the pics of your Dales!
