Pupsicles Return for Fall Treats: Halloween and Thanksgiving Favorites Posted: 28 Oct 2011 08:50 PM PDT by Carrie Boyko, CEB © Carrie Boyko Can We Eat Them All? © Carrie Boyko Turn Off the Sunshine Before it Melts My Pupsicle Pumpkin is becoming the new favorite in healthy dog snacks. Have you noticed how many treat companies are adding a pumpkin treat to their line? It's no wonder. This vegetable is fiber-rich, full of anti-oxidants and beta-carotene, and low calorie. It's a perfect snack for a fit fido. Here in Florida the weather is still plentiful warm so we're taking advantage of the availability of organic pumpkin to create some frozen treats for Tanner and Oliver. If it's too chilly where you live, tuck this recipe into your Summer plans and serve it whenever your pup can enjoy a cooling snack. © Carrie Boyko Tanner Gobbles Them Fast Pumpkin Pupsicles Mix about 1 cup lowfat plain yogurt with 1 cup mashed pumpkin. I use organic to know I'm giving Tanner and Oliver the best--no fertilizers, pesticides or synthetic preservatives. You can add a tablespoon of honey if you wish, but honestly that's more for our tastes than for theirs.  © Carrie Boyko Oliver Savors the Flavor Spoon the mixture into an ice cube tray and freeze until solid. Pop the Pupsicles out and store for serving one at a time, depending on your Fido's size. Do you have a pupsicle recipe to share? I'd love to hear from you at AllThingsDogBlog@gmail.com. Happy tails!

Dog Food Joy: Organix Giveaway Winners Score Big! Posted: 28 Oct 2011 05:58 PM PDT by Carrie Boyko, CEB © S.P., reader copyright on file Kandy and Kody Enjoy Playtime © Cassie, reader copyright on file Meet Marley Well-nourished dogs who are fed a healthy, organic food just have that look about them. Their coats shine and their energy seems to always be vibrant. Two winners will be receiving a coupon for a 25 lb. bag of Organix, the official food of the All Things Dog Blog dogs.  Tanner and Oliver have never yet balked at chow when I serve their favorite. They seem to know that their Organix dinner is the best I can give them. Whatever it is that makes them love it--the taste, the absence of synthetics and toxins--they always chow down as if they don't know when their next meal is coming. No complaints from me. © A.O. reader copyright on file Sushi and Toby Thanks to all my readers who participated in the captioning of photos. Your efforts at placing messages into your images shows off your enthusiasm better than I could ever do it. I really appreciate these great pics. It's too bad there's not space to share them all here, but I try to plug them all in to Facebook, so always watch for your photos there. © S.D., reader copyright on file Keep Trying Shiloh! Today's winners of a 25 lb. bag of Organix Dog Food are Valerie Z. and Nicki. Congratulations! Please get in touch at AllThingsDogBlog@gmail.com with your mailing address. Your coupon will come shortly. If you're not a winner today, keep trying. I'll be continuing these periodic giveaways for a while. Meanwhile, check in with Castor and Pollux Pet's Store Locator to find out where you can buy their products in your own area. Best wishes to you all. No purchase necessary to enter. This giveaway was limited to U.S. addresses. Coupons for free dog food have been provided to me by Castor and Pollux. I was not obligated to give them away and was not paid to run this giveaway.
