1. Start by prepping your ingredients – dice all fruits and vegetables into small, uniform pieces to prevent choking and ensure even freezing.
2. Mix it all together – pour bone broth into a large bowl, then add carrots, sweet potatoes, apples, and blueberries. Stir gently until ingredients are evenly distributed throughout the broth.
3. Fill those ice cube trays – pour mixture into ice cube trays, filling each section about 3/4 full (liquid expands when frozen, trust me on this one).
4. Freeze until solid – place trays in freezer for at least 4 hours or overnight. Test by gently tapping the tray—if they don’t wiggle, they’re ready.
5. Store for later – pop frozen cubes out of trays and store in airtight freezer containers. Always let your pup enjoy these completely frozen for best texture and safety.

Notes:

• Always let cubes freeze completely before serving to prevent choking hazards
• Start with one cube to see how your dog handles frozen treats
• Amber prefers these straight from the freezer – the crunch factor is half the fun
• Perfect for teething puppies when partially thawed under supervision

Storage Tips:

• Keep frozen for up to 3 months in airtight containers
• Label with date because even I forget when I made the last batch
• Don’t leave out at room temperature – these spoil quickly once thawed
• Store in freezer bags if you’re making big batches like I do

What Makes This Recipe Special:

These frozen cubes deliver serious nutritional benefits while keeping dogs entertained and hydrated. The bone broth supports joint health with natural glucosamine, while the fruits and vegetables provide essential vitamins and antioxidants that store-bought treats simply can’t match.

Mix It Up (Dog-Safe Variations):

Senior Dog Version: Add a pinch of turmeric for extra joint support (perfect for dogs like my 8-year-old Amber)

Summer Berry Blast: Double the blueberries and add diced strawberries for extra antioxidant power

Digestive Support: Replace apples with plain pumpkin puree for dogs with sensitive stomachs
