When it comes to feeding your pets, there is no room for compromises that can potentially endanger their health. It means avoiding food that their tummies can’t digest, as well as artificial products. Also, it means that some quality, natural supplements like CBD could be found on your pup’s daily menu.

Making CBD treats at home is a job that will not take you much time. You can find a bunch of no baking recipes for delicious homemade bites that your dog will enjoy. You can use organic foods and everything your pup loves. Enrich these with CBD, and voila – you’ve got your furry companion nutritious treats loaded with health benefits.

Coconut Berry Snowflakes

Dogs can have a sweet tooth from time to time. Since they shouldn’t eat refined sugar, you shouldn’t use it by any means. Use alternatives that contain natural sweetness like mashed fruit, honey, maple syrup, and molasses. But these should also be used in moderation.

When it’s berry season, you can make yummy berry frozen balls for your pup. These fruits are loaded with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, which will boost your pet’s immunity.

You need about one and a half cups of strawberries, blueberries, or any dog-friendly berries. Mash them and remove seeds if you can. Mix the puree with about four tablespoons of melted coconut oil and six tablespoons of ground flaxseed. Let the mixture sit until flaxseed swells a bit.

Add about half a cup of coconut flour to the fruit puree. If it’s watery, add more flour. The consistency should be such that you can make balls out of the mixture. Add a dash of cinnamon and clove and CBD oil of your choice. Place the balls on a cookie sheet and freeze them until firm. You can keep them in a fridge for a few days.

Pumpkin and Turmeric Treats

Fiber is indispensable in your dog’s diet. Since their meals are primarily based on meat (which doesn’t have a lot of fibrous matter), you must provide them with other sources of this nutrient. Pumpkin is an ideal choice, and you can safely give it to your dog every day in small amounts. These treats are the right measure for that.

Mix a cup of pumpkin puree with a cup of rolled oats in a bowl and set aside. Mash the pumpkin on your own as store-bought purees are loaded with sugar. In another bowl, stir one and a half tablespoons of melted coconut oil with the same amount of honey; then, add spices.

Turmeric is a must, given the wealth of health benefits (learn more about them at this link). Black pepper goes quite well with this spice, as it increases the bioavailability of nutrients from turmeric.

In the end, add a required dose of CBD oil for dogs to the mixture. These can be enriched with various flavors if your pup can’t stand the taste of pure oil. Roll the balls and place them on a tray. Don’t make large quantities because these raw treats can’t stand for long.

Banana PB Cookies

Bananas are found in many purchased dog treats. They are rich in potassium, fiber, magnesium, vitamins C and B6. This fruit is ideal for making pup-friendly ice cream. However, bananas, like other fruits, should be given to dogs in small amounts so as not to interfere with digestion or diarrhea.

Use a ripe banana to make delicious cookies for your furry buddy. Mash the fruit and add a loaded cup of peanut butter. Use an organic product without sugar and added fats (or make it at home, as shown on this page). Add a prescribed amount of CBD oil and enough oat flour to the mixture to make it suitable for rolling. Roll it to about a 1/4-inch-thick slab and use cookie cutters to shape the treats. They will harden in the air and are ready to serve in about 2 hours.

Sweet Potato Frozen Snacks

The colder days to come are ideal for preparing sweet potato-based meals. This sweet-tasting roots reminiscent of potatoes is an excellent food that your dog can eat in moderation. You can use it to prepare meals, but also for delicious no-bake CBD treats. Sweet potato is low-fat and full of good carbs, which will improve your pup’s digestion. Just make sure it’s precooked and peeled.

Cook one larger sweet potato and mash it into the puree. Let it cool a bit, and then add half a cup of yogurt. You can use both plain and Greek, as both products abound in probiotics which can do many good things for your pet’s gut. Add a tablespoon of melted coconut oil and stir well.

Pour the mixture into silicone molds. Add a few drops of CBD oil to each treat. Move them to the freezer. They are ready to serve in about three hours, but it’s best to leave them overnight. Keep them in the fridge for no more than a week.

Yet, due to lack of time, many dog owners prefer the convenience of store-bought CBD treats rather than making these at home. These products can really help sometimes when your pet needs instant relief or calm. But remember that these can also contain refined sugars and a host of other artificial ingredients. Homemade pet snacks are a far better option.
