Frozen Watermelon & Cucumber Dog Treats

Perfect for: Hot summer days when your dog needs a refreshing little treat. 

You’ll need: 

• 300g seedless watermelon, chopped
• 100g cucumber, peeled and chopped
• 2–3 fresh mint leaves (optional) 
• A small splash of water, if needed 

Method: 

• Remove any seeds and the rind from the watermelon and chop into small pieces. 
• Peel and chop the cucumber. 
• Add the watermelon, cucumber and mint to a blender.  
• Blend until smooth. Add a small splash of water if the mixture is too thick. 
• Pour into small silicone moulds or ice cube trays.  
• Freeze for 3–4 hours, or until completely solid.  
• Pop one or two out when your dog needs a refreshing summer treat. 

Top Tip: 

Make them smaller rather than larger, especially for smaller dogs, and introduce new treats gradually. Important: Always use seedless watermelon and remove the rind before preparing the treats. The rind and seeds aren't suitable for dogs. 

Rags & Bert’s Summer Twist: 

You could also add a few tiny pieces of cooked chicken before freezing for a savoury version that many dogs will love.
