Summer brings longer days and the perfect opportunity for outdoor activities. However, the warmer months also mean we need to pay extra attention to our pets’ comfort and hydration. Whether your dog loves a romp outside or your cat prefers a sunny spot for napping, keeping them cool and happy is essential. At Barnstone Kennels and Cattery, we understand the importance of providing refreshing, pet-safe treats during summer. These simple DIY snacks are both nutritious and cooling, perfect for the Australian heat and great for any pet, whether they’re relaxing at home or with us at Barnstone.
Packed with natural sweetness and protein, Frozen Peanut Butter & Banana Bites are an easy, tasty treat your dog will love. Bananas offer essential vitamins, and peanut butter (as long as it’s xylitol-free) provides healthy fats.
Pineapple and coconut combine for a tropical, hydrating treat that’s safe for both dogs and cats. Pineapple offers vitamins and antioxidants, while coconut water is a natural electrolyte booster.
These savoury treats are a hit with dogs that prefer something meaty. Frozen Beef Broth Cubes not only satisfy their taste buds but also provide added hydration, ideal for after a run or play session.
Strawberries are full of antioxidants and fibre, while plain yoghurt offers calcium and probiotics. This simple treat is a refreshing option for dogs and cats alike.
If your pet enjoys the earthy sweetness of pumpkin, this Pumpkin & Coconut Milk Frozen Treat is perfect. Pumpkin aids digestion, while coconut milk provides hydration and essential nutrients.
For a cooling feline snack, try Tuna and Catnip Frozen Treats. Cats love tuna’s flavour, and catnip adds extra excitement, making this a tasty and stimulating treat.
Crunchy apple slices filled with peanut butter make a nutritious and hydrating snack. Apples provide vitamins, and xylitol-free peanut butter is an excellent protein source for dogs.
These DIY treats are perfect for hot days at home, but what about when your pets are with us at Barnstone Kennels and Cattery? Our facilities ensure your pets are comfortable no matter the temperature. We understand that keeping them cool, happy, and well-cared-for is essential, which is why we provide plenty of love, attention, and treats for their enjoyment.
Book a stay with Barnstone Kennels and Cattery today, and rest assured that your pet will be cool, comfortable, and entertained while you’re away. We pride ourselves on providing the highest standard of care for your dog or cat, giving them a home away from home with all the comforts they need to beat the summer heat.
