Dog-Friendly Cucumber Dip
We all love veggies and dip and your dog will too! Check out this refreshing, healthy and super easy recipe you and your dog can both enjoy. Cucumbers are a good source of vitamin K and yogurt is great for your dog’s digestive system. As with any treat, you will want to feed in moderation, especially if it’s your first time feeding a particular snack.
1 medium cucumber, or 1/2 hothouse cucumber
1 1/2 cups of yogurt (plain, unsweetened)
1 tbsp fresh dill or 1 tsp dried dill
1/2 lemon (squeezed)
Slice up your cucumbers. If you are using cucumbers with a thicker skin, make sure to peel them before slicing.
Place cucumber in food processor with 1 cup of yogurt, lemon juice and dill.
Blend until cucumber is small and well-blended with other ingredients
Mix in additional 1/2 cup of yogurt
Place in a small bowl and put in refrigerator to set. The dip will thin once it is blended, so it is important to let it rest in the fridge for at least an hour and overnight if possible.
**If you are looking for a thicker dip, place your cucumbers in the food processor alone and then strain them in a cheese-cloth to pull out the extra liquid before mixing them with the yogurt.
