Your pooch deserves a tasty treat this summer. This 3-ingredient dog ice-cream is the perfect treat for your furry friend. Make a batch and keep in your freezer for when your pup deserves a special treat. Making your own doggy ice-cream is a much cheaper alternative to buying from the pet store.

I also love making homemade dog biscuits like these Peanut Butter Pumpkin Dog Treats. Or for a dog cupcake version, try these recipe for Doggy Carrot Cake.
Why I love making doggy ice-cream:
- Save Money - Making it yourself is WAY cheaper than buying it at the pet store. Like seriously way cheaper.
- Control Your Dog's Diet - You get to control the ingredients! You know your dog's diet best and when in doubt, consult your vet. But this let's you be in control.
- Custom Sized - You can make the treats as big or as small as you'd like! I like them small for a little treat, but you could freeze them into cups for more of a "slowly lick the ice-cream" experience.
- Dogs Deserve the Best - Because your fur baby deserves it!
First, just add the 3 ingredients for the doggy ice-cream to your blender or food processor. You can even mix it up by hand!
Then pour the blended ice-cream mixture into molds. I used these super cute bone and paw print shaped silicone molds I got from Amazon. Pop into the freezer until frozen and then transfer to a freezer bag or container for storage.
The final and most important step. Share a treat with your favorite doggo!

Ingredients
- 32 oz tub plain yogurt
- 2 tablespoons natural peanut butter (double check the ingredients to make sure it's just peanuts!)

Notes
Make sure your peanut butter is just peanuts and no funky ingredients! Some peanut butters contain "xylitol" which is toxic to dogs.

I usually add a little honey but I was out so I put a few miniature marshmallows this time and they loved it! Not too many. I don't want to give them too much sugar. Huge hit!!
