smoothie operator

Lola has decided that my homemade smoothie is essential to her day - so much so that once the lid comes off I have to stop her launching her tongue down the bottle!

Contents are: freshy chopped kiwi and banana, grated root ginger, coconut pb youghurt and apple juice with a bit of DE thrown in if I have some about.

Anything in there not good for dogs? Wasn't sure about fresh ginger but she loves it and is my best made up recipie yet!

I think it's OK, it's not on this list

That all sounds OK to me for Lola to enjoy, nothing harmful there, ginger is great for settling the tummy.

nope all good and the DE is great for her too!

That's a great idea ! Never thought about blending it all up.

Ive got some bananas and kiwis, I could blend that up with their goats milk yogurt tomorro

Sounds nice - but what is DE please?

DE is diatomaceous earth, it's what i use to worm the boys

pleased you asked that Densil as I was just about to , at least it wasn't something stiupid that should have been obvious

Sounds yummy. great taste Lola!

Sounds like a really good idea. I think Logan would love that

Sounds fine, Suki will usually have whatever is left over from my protein smoothie as well

I was thinking about something like this to put in his kong and freeze for the summer. Last year I used mashed banana with natural yogurt and then smeared some honey around the top when I took it out of the freezer.

I love any home made dog food recipes. Give us more! I make freeze dried liver treats - I find it really satisfying.

Great idea

Works well with summer berries and honey greek yoghurt too - La Lola always gets the yoghurt pots as well after I've made them and dives in. Ends up with yoghurty santa beard! She has also now started eating steamed broccoli and cabbage so I might try a savoury smoothie with stock just for her. Or I could just buy baby food and be done with it - would certainly be appropriate!

Fab idea.

I thought broccoli was one of the foods on the list not to give dogs too much of. I gave mine some broccoli once and I am sure it upset his tummy. Still trying to find out what upsets him and what is ok.
