DOGGIE ICE CREAM

By now some of you have been getting to 

know my sweet Kota dog a little.

He is such a blessing to us. 

A few years ago we lost our Riley boy

and we were just miserable.

We have had dogs for years and 

after about a month of not having the

love of a good dog by our side

I started, on the sly, to look for another.

(My husband had put his foot down and 

said "no more dogs").

Little did he know that I need to have a dog to love on.

I spotted an ad in the Sunday paper -

someone offering a white husky

Sounded exactly like what I was looking for.

This was the first ad I had even looked at 

I knew this was a sign from above

I had to see this dog

I think hubby was even starting to get interested

We have pretty much only had husky dogs and 

I just love 'em to pieces so this was a major no-brainer for me!

I suggested that we stop by after church - just to take

a look... hmm (not what I was thinking)
It was mad love at first sight..
It was official- hubby and I were smitten

Anyways the rest is history...

Kota is our sweet little guy that was surely

a gift from God 

Making Kota happy is really easy, all you have to do is:

Love him lots,

Walk him lots

and ...

give him homemade doggie ice cream

Here is he is enjoying a cup:

To make these you will need:

* 1/2 cup plastic cup containers with snap on lids

(the kind that Hefty and others make,

they come in an 8 pack at grocery & other stores),

* A can of dog food (Kota eats Merrick Chicken 

Pot Pie- which he adores and it's all natural)

* About 1 spoonful of peanut butter (I use the natural kind) &

* some sort of blender.

I use a milkshake maker type blender (the ones with a really

tall metal milkshake cup)

 

He loves these.. can you tell?

I will then put about 1/2 cup of the can of dog food

in the milkshake blender along with the

spoonful of peanut butter and

fill the rest of the cup about 3/4 way with water

Must be intermission time

Then I will pour the mixture in the plastic containers

and plop them in the freezer. 

They take a good 3-4 hours to freeze

Kota sometimes doesn't understand that part though

but he is a patient boy and simply waits 

Here he is posing for his picture

Love to make him happy

(Isn't that what life is all about anyways?)
