Tips for Staying Cool in the Summertime

Since it is summertime, why not make Fido a frozen treat? Here's a great recipe from Bark magazine called Frozen Sunrise

Frozen Sunrise

An icy treat to be enjoyed from sunrise to sunset.
Ingredients
2 cups fruit juice (apple works best)
1 mashed and puréed banana
1 cup plain non-fat yogurt
1 cup puréed strawberries
Directions
Combine all ingredients and whisk thoroughly. Pour mixture into small disposable cups (three-inch bathroom or kitchen paper cups work best). Freeze until solid (at least four hours). To pop out the treat, push up on the bottom of the cup.

And don't forget that dogs can suffer from heat stroke too! Another great article from Bark magazine about being safe in the summer: Summer Health Tips
