Summer is Cooler with the Doggie Cone

August 4, 2015 10 Comments

Doggie Cone

A few weeks ago, I shared a picture of Mauja and Atka enjoying National Ice Cream day with a Pup Cup from Dairy Queen. It was then that I was introduced to the Doggie Cone.

A.K.A. the greatest improvement on frozen treats.

Normally when I make frozen treats, I use our adorable little paw print tray for bite sized treats. It makes tasty snacks, but certainly nothing long-lasting. That’s where the Doggie Cone comes in.

The Doggie Cone is an extremely durable, mess-free way to create and serve frozen dog treats. It is made from food-safe ABS and Polypropylene to allow for a safe and sturdy cone. There are also two different fill-lines so you can decide if you want to make a small or large treat.

The fluffies say bigger is better.

Piglets.

A few other notable characteristics:

  • replaceable support pole
  • ribbed design for licking enjoyment
  • ridged on top for freezing stability
  • low profile design to prevent tipping
  • concave design to capture two hours of melt at room temperature
  • rubber feet to minimize sliding

I was sold on the Doggie Cone before it even showed up on our doorstep. I told Nick, “if this thing works, it is going to be the most amazing product for frozen treats”.

It works.

You can fill your Doggie Cone to suit your dog’s preferences – add water, broth, fruit, veggies… whatever your dog typically enjoys! I decided to use the recipe for The Honest Kitchen treats I made recently and just added a little more liquid. I wanted it to be a thinner consistency than the original recipe. Assembling your Doggie Cone is as easy as one, two, three.

  1. Twist the support pole into the base.
  2. Fill the clear top with your treat of choice.
  3. Put the base on the top and freeze!

I filled Mauja and Atka’s cones to the top and they were in fluffy paradise. It took them almost an hour to lick and chew their way through their treats. The only mess that occurred was from the pieces of meat I froze in the cone. As they chewed, sometimes the meat fell off the cone, but it was promptly eaten! Even with treat consumption taking an hour, we didn’t experience any liquid mess.

Note: It does say on the website that the Doggie Cone is typically not recommended for dogs over 100 pounds. Obviously Mauja and Atka are well over that weight limit. The reason is because giant breeds can pick up the cone with their extra large mouths. This could tip the cone and compromise the design. However, if your dog isn’t an aggressive chewer you shouldn’t have a problem. The fluffies were content to relax and lick and chew away.

Revel Frozen Treats: The Honest Kitchen

June 2, 2015 16 Comments

Revel Frozen Treats - The Honest Kitchen

Atka is the weirdest dog ever. He does not like peanut butter and we recently found out he doesn’t like some of the flavors from The Honest Kitchen. Mauja goes bananas when she smells me preparing the food; Atka looks at me like I have offended him. The Honest Kitchen makes some seriously awesome stuff. Atka is just a weirdo.

We received samples of the new Revel flavor in our swag bag at BlogPaws this past weekend. I wanted to find a way for both dogs to enjoy the food, and I figured a frozen treat just might do the trick. So, I created the Revel Frozen Treats.

These are super quick and easy and only require a few steps. Here we go!

What You Will Need:

Revel Frozen Treats - The Honest Kitchen

  • 1/2 cup Revel dog food from The Honest Kitchen
  • 1 small container of plain, non-fat greek yogurt
  • Chicken
  • Carrots (or other veggie)
  • Low-sodium chicken broth, if necessary
What To Do:

1. Cook up your chicken. I cooked the fluffies’ in coconut oil for some added health benefits (olive oil is great, too!).

2. While the chicken cools, mix up your Revel food per package instructions. I used both sample packets, which required 2/3 of a cup of water. Let sit for the food to absorb the water.

3. Mix in your greek yogurt. Make sure to break for a taste test!

4. Finely dice your carrots (or other veggies) and chicken.

5. Mix carrots and chicken into the Revel/greek yogurt mixture.

6. If your mixture is thin enough, add it to your freezer molds. My molds are tiny so I needed to thin the mixture a bit. I added some low-sodium chicken broth until it reached the desired consistency; then I added it to the molds.

7. Freeze and enjoy!

I love this recipe because it is so versatile. You can substitute a favorite food flavor, meat, or vegetable to get a result that suits every pooch! Do you think your dog would enjoy this summer treat?
