These Apple Ginger Yogurt frozen dog treats are not only a delicious way to cool your pooch down on a hot day but they are also very healthy dog treats. Besides the calcium and protein that the yogurt provides, the live bacteria it contains aids in digestion just like it does for people. Apples give vitamins A, C, and fiber while the ginger is good for nausea – but only give to your pup in small doses. You don’t have to add the honey and your dog will probably still eat it, but they do have a sweet tooth, so it is a nice once in awhile treat.
Let me tell you something else friends… I tried these for the sake of quality control and they are AMAZING! Just the right amount of sweet and spice. If you are really sweet to your pup he MAY let you have some on a hot day.
Apple Ginger Yogurt Frozen Dog Treats
Ingredients:
1 cup plain Greek yogurt
1 apple
½ tsp. fresh ginger (or grated)
1 Tbsp. honey
Dash of Cinnamon (optional)
Directions:
Peel and finely dice apples. Leaving the skin on provides some extra nutrients, but my picky eaters don’t like the texture.
Grate 1/2 tsp ginger into the apples.
In a bowl combine diced apples, ginger, honey, and yogurt until well mixed.
Divide evenly among a regular ice cube tray- it should just fill all the spots.
Place in freezer for at least 2 hours to solidify.
Give your dog 1 or 2 on a hot day to help cool down and give them a bit of a sweet treat.

I have bought frozen Paw treats for my dog in the summer & he loved it!!
I pinned, shared on FB, Twitter, G+, & added it to Stumbleupon, because I wanted to share the love for their dogs around. Easy recipe – sounds great & I might have to go out & buy ice cube trays 🙂

I just made these and cant wait for them to freeze up. I know my dogs will love them! I followed the recipe as written but I notice you are showing cinnamon in your pics. Is it part of the recipe as well?
Oops! I guess I left it off the recipe. I will go back and add it on as optional. Sometimes I add a pinch of cinnamon and other times I don’t. To be honest, the pups never seem to notice the difference LOL
Yum! What fun!!
