1. Add pumpkin puree to blender first for smoothest mixing (if your pup can wait that long).
2. Toss in fresh blueberries, yogurt, and honey until that beautiful purple-orange color develops.
3. Blend until completely smooth and creamy—it should smell like a healthy smoothie.
4. Add water gradually while blending until you reach thick smoothie consistency.
5. Pour into ice cube trays or fun silicone molds of your choice.
6. Freeze for at least 3 hours until completely solid throughout.
7. Pop out and serve—let soften 2-3 minutes for perfect texture!

Notes:

• Let soften slightly for easier eating, especially for senior dogs like Amber
• Some dogs prefer these at different temperatures—experiment to find your pup’s sweet spot
• If mixture seems too thick, add water gradually; too thin, add more pumpkin

Storage Tips:

• Store in freezer-safe containers for up to 2 months
• Pop out of molds and store in labeled freezer bags for easy serving
• They actually taste better after freezing overnight as flavors meld

What Makes This Recipe Special:
