Why I Started Making Blueberry Banana Yogurt Frozen Dog Treats

It started with a hot afternoon and Goldie, my sunshine-colored golden retriever, sprawled on the kitchen tiles in full “I’m melting” mode. I had just finished making myself a smoothie when I looked over and saw her watching me with those big, hopeful eyes. I had leftover blueberries, half a banana, and some plain Greek yogurt on hand—and that’s when it hit me. She deserved a refreshing treat just as much as I did.

Since then, these frozen dog treats have become a summer must in our house. Anytime she hears the freezer drawer open, she’s instantly on high alert, ready for her frosty snack.


🧊 If your pup loves frozen treats too, don’t miss these 7 Frozen Dog Treats You Can Make With Ice Cube Trays or try our Frozen Applesauce Dog Treats for a single-ingredient idea.


Ingredients You’ll Need

  • 1/2 ripe banana (mashed)

  • 1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt (xylitol-free)

  • 1/4 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)

Note: Always double-check that your yogurt is plain and xylitol-free —xylitol is dangerous to dogs.



Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Mash the banana in a bowl until smooth.

  2. Stir in the Greek yogurt.

  3. Fold in the blueberries gently.

  4. Spoon the mixture into silicone molds or ice cube trays.

  5. Freeze for 3–4 hours or until solid.

  6. Pop out and serve one at a time as a cool treat.

  • Use silicone bone molds for a fun presentation.


Bonding with My Dog During Prep

Goldie isn’t subtle—she knows when it’s “her” recipe time. She’ll trot into the kitchen, sit perfectly, and wag her tail like she’s the official taste tester (she kind of is). These small moments—me mixing, her watching—are our way of connecting. It’s not just about snacks; it’s about making time for each other.

Want to keep the bond strong? Try these Soft Banana Dog Treats too—they’re gentle on teeth and easy to prep.

Storing and Serving Tips

  • Store treats in an airtight freezer-safe container.

  • Serve straight from the freezer.

  • Use as a reward, summer cooldown, or training treat.



Common Issues & Fixes

  • Too runny to scoop? Add more banana.

  • Too thick to stir? Add a splash of water or more yogurt.

  • Dog won’t eat it frozen? Let it thaw for a minute or two before serving.

📌 Final Thoughts

There’s something extra sweet about making treats with your own hands. Goldie doesn’t care about the ingredients or the effort, but she knows they’re made with love. That tail wag, the happy crunch—it all says, “Thanks, Mom.” These frozen blueberry banana yogurt bites are more than treats—they’re tiny, joyful rituals in our day.


And if you ask me, that’s the heart of being a dog parent.
