Description

These Cucumber Mint Paw Treats are refreshing frozen homemade dog treats made with cucumber, plain Greek yogurt, and a tiny amount of fresh mint. They are easy to make, perfect for warm days, and shaped into adorable paw treats.


Ingredients

  • 1 cup chopped cucumber
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 23 small fresh mint leaves
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (optional)
  • 12 tablespoons water (if needed)


Instructions

  1. Wash and chop the cucumber. Peel if desired and remove large seeds if necessary.
  2. Add the cucumber, Greek yogurt, mint leaves, and optional parsley to a blender or food processor.
  3. Blend until smooth and creamy, adding 1–2 tablespoons of water only if needed.
  4. Place a silicone paw mold on a tray and carefully pour the mixture into each cavity.
  5. Tap the mold gently to remove air bubbles.
  6. Freeze for at least 3–4 hours, or overnight for best results.
  7. Remove the frozen treats from the mold and store in a freezer-safe container.
  8. Serve one small frozen paw treat as an occasional snack.

Notes

These treats are intended as an occasional snack and are not a substitute for dental care. Always use plain unsweetened Greek yogurt with no xylitol. Use only a very small amount of fresh mint—never peppermint oil, mint extract, or essential oils. Store frozen for up to 2 months.
