Rescue A Dog

A friend shared this video with me. I thought more people should see it - a new friendship, a new beginning. It was very sad to watch but Edie's story has a happy ending. It took a team effort between volunteers with the American Maltese Association and Hope For Paws to rescue this dog from her scheduled death.

Make a Cool Treat for a Hot Summer Day

Peanut Butter and Jelly Frozen Yogurt for Dogs

Ingredients

• 4 cups plain yogurt, low or fat free  (Do NOT use the ones with artificial sweeteners - those could make dogs sick)
• 1 ripe banana
• 1 cup of blueberries (or you could use strawberries, raspberries or a mixed variety - either frozen or fresh)
• 3 tbsp peanut butter (natural and salt free is preferred. peanut butter should be at room temperature, so it's easier to blend)
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• optional: honey (to taste)

Instructions

1. Put all the ingredients into a blender, and puree until smooth.
2. Pour the smoothie into ice cube trays and freeze.

Storing - Frozen treats will last for 6 months or more in the freezer. You can keep the smoothie mix in the fridge (in liquid form, of course) for about a week.

Yield - Using a 1/2 inch ice cube tray, you will make 32 PB & J Frozen Yogurt dog treats.  You can enjoy these yummy cold treats, too!  I love them! 

O Canada!

Happy Canada Day!

Please resist the urge to take your pet to fireworks displays.  Most pets do not like fireworks, nor the noisy crowd.  It could be very stressful.  Stay at home and share some quality time with your family.  :-)
