Category: Dessert
Serves: 3 dozen
Preparation Time: 5 minutes
Cooking Time: 0 minutes

Quick Tips:

Baby food is a great way to give your dog’s nutritional intake a kickstart. It’s typically all natrual, contains lots of vitamins and minerals, is easy to digest, and dogs love it. It is the perfect way to give your dog a treat they like that is also nutritional.

Ingredients:

• 950 ml (4 cups) yogurt (any flavour)
• 1 jar baby food, fruit flavour
• 30 ml (2 Tbsp) honey
• 30 ml (2 Tbsp) natural peanut butter

Preparation & Cooking:

• Puree all ingredients in a food processor. Keep it going until it is a smooth mixture. We don’t want any lumps in there.
• Get your ice cube trays and pour the mixture into them. You will probably need 2 - 3 depending on the size.
• Now pop them in your freezer so they can at least freeze over night.
• When serving you can microwave briefly or pop them on the bench so they can thaw slightly before serving. You must be careful though as you don’t want it melting and going all over the place. Best if you put it outside otherwise you will be either mopping the floor or worse yet, getting your carpets steam cleaned.

Is your dog an aggressive chewer?

Aggressive chewers come in all shapes and sizes, from tiny little terriers, to large powerful Rotties! What’s most important is to know your dog, choosing the appropriate treats for both their size and temperament.

Treats can prove invaluable in rewarding positive behavior and in reinforcing behavior learned during training. They’re also a fun, inexpensive way to show your dog you love him. When choosing a treat, be sure to consider:

Intended use - if you plan to use treats during training, smaller treats are a good choice. They’re quickly consumed and provide minimal distraction from training tasks.

Frequency - if you plan to treat your dog often, consider smaller, lower-calorie treats which will help him stay slim.

Age & Health - puppies often prefer smaller treats, and seniors with sensitive teeth often prefer soft treats. Dogs with food sensitivities/allergies can benefit from hypoallergenic treats.

Pooches preferences - treats are available in several different shapes, sizes, and flavors sure to fit your dog’s unique tastes.

One common mistake made by a lot of pet owners is pampering your dog too much! Many people, when they hear their dog bark, either cuddle it, pat it, or feed it some type of dog treat. Although dog treats are popular, in a short time you will wind up with a dog that will whine, bark, or demand attention unnecessarily. This type of behavior teaches your pet to make a lot of noise whenever it wants attention. Henceforth, what your dog does all the time is bark! This is negative behavior modification and should be refrained from as much as possible to avoid spoiling your pet. After all, that is how your dog is trained, so reward the good habits only, never the bad ones.

Remember to keep the dog treats in the cupboard for a while, and even though it is hard to ignore a barking dog, it will pay its dividends later on. This is especially hard to do if most of the barking occurs outside and your dog is bothering the neighbors. You are best off to contact your neighbors and advise them that you’re involved in the training process of putting an end to the excessive noise and just ask their indulgence. Most people understand and you will have better neighbor relations as a result.

Here are a few tips to help you with incessant barking. Resist the urge to open your door to yell at your pet when he’s barking or give him some type of dog treat. The next time the barking starts, wait a minute until he stops and is quiet for a minute or two, then open the door before he starts barking again and praise him for being quiet. As soon as the dog starts to bark again, walk away and ignore him, and eventually he will realize that he only gets your attention when he is not barking instead of barking. Try and refrain from too many dog treats as your dog will expect to be rewarded with this type of treatment all the time. Remember that overnight success is not possible and that it will take you time to train your dog to stop barking. If your dog craves your attention all the time, it is important for you to reevaluate just how much attention he gets during the day. Maybe you just need to spend more time with him, giving more exercise and more love. This is something you and your dog will both be equally rewarded for.
