Here are two ideas of what you can put in a stuffable dog chew toy

Recipe #1

• 1/2 cup kibble

• 1/2 cup Greek yogurt

• 1/4 cup peanut butter

• 1/4 cup blueberries

• Recipe #2

• 1/2 cup kibble

• 1/2 cup kefir

• 1/4 cup pumpkin

• A few Diced avocado pieces (or fruit or veggie of choice)

Directions recipe #1

• Place chew toy in a cup or muffin tin to help stand it up and make easier to fill. Add peanut butter first to seal bottom. I like to use a piping bag to add the peanut butter. It makes it so much easier! Easily make one like I did in the video with a ziploc or freezer bag.
• Mix the yogurt and kibble together in a bowl and then add to toy on top of peanut butter, add blueberries and then use a little yogurt to “seal” the top.
• You can serve to your dog right away but I prefer to freeze them overnight and give the next day to keep them busy longer. Top with a frozen paw print treat
• Recipe #2
• Mix the kibble and kefir together and add to toy. (I added pumpkin to the toy first but i think it would have been less messy to add the kibble/kefir mix.)
• Add pumpkin and then diced avocado and freeze overnight.
