Delicious Recipes For Ice Cream Lollies For Dogs

These are ideal to reinforce their hydration during the summer, although you have to be careful with the ingredients, as they can harm them; sugar, chocolate or coffee cannot be used

During the summer, our pets lose a great deal of water. Therefore, when the summer season approaches, we must be vigilant to reinforce their hydration. A great way to do this is by making some delicious and refreshing popsicles for dogs.

Can dogs eat ice cream?

In principle, all dogs can enjoy delicious ice cream on a warm summer day. However, when preparing popsicles for dogs we must not add ingredients that are harmful to their health. Therefore, in our recipes we will not use chocolate, coffee, sugar or artificial sweeteners.

The idea is to make healthy popsicles with fruits that are beneficial for dogs, such as strawberries, apples, pears, peaches or blueberries. We also teach you how to prepare an exquisite and practical salty ice cream that provides lean and good quality proteins to your furry.

Also, as many adult dogs are allergic to lactose, we will not use milk in our preparations. To obtain a creamy ice cream, we can use vegetable milk (rice, for example) or natural yogurt reduced in lactose.

Another excellent option is to use kefir to prepare a very nutritious ice cream for your dog. This natural probiotic stimulates intestinal transit, strengthens the immune system and prevents various pathologies. Therefore, incorporating it as a natural supplement in your diet can be very beneficial, always with the proper guidance of the veterinarian.

Here are four recipes for popsicles for dogs that are very nutritious and easy to make.
