Frozen Peach Raspberry Dog Treats

These Frozen Peach Raspberry Dog Treats are a simple, fruity snack made with just three ingredients. Fresh peach, raspberries and creamy kefir are blended together and frozen in silicone molds for an easy homemade treat that’s especially refreshing on a warm day.

The peach and kefir are blended until smooth, while the raspberries are mashed separately and stirred through the mixture. This gives the treats pretty little flecks of raspberry rather than blending everything into one uniform pink mixture.

With no added sugar, artificial flavors or complicated ingredients, these frozen dog treats are quick to prepare and handy to keep in the freezer whenever your dog deserves something cool and tasty.

Are Peaches and Raspberries Safe for Dogs?

Yes, dogs can eat both peaches and raspberries in moderation.

Peaches are a source of vitamins A and C, fiber and antioxidants. Always remove the pit before giving peach to a dog. For this recipe, we’ve also removed the skin to give the frozen treats a smoother texture.

Raspberries provide fiber, vitamin C and naturally occurring antioxidants. They are best offered in relatively small quantities as part of a dog’s overall diet.

Raspberries naturally contain tiny amounts of xylitol. This isn’t the same as adding the highly concentrated xylitol sweetener that is extremely toxic to dogs, and a few raspberries are generally considered safe for dogs. However, they’re still a fruit to feed in moderation.

What Does Kefir Do for Dogs?

Kefir is a fermented milk drink containing live cultures. Depending on the product, it can provide probiotics along with protein, calcium and other nutrients. Fermentation also reduces some of the lactose found in milk, which can make kefir easier for some dogs to tolerate than regular dairy products.

However, not every dog tolerates dairy well. If your dog hasn’t had kefir before, start with a small amount and watch for digestive upset.

Choose plain, unsweetened kefir without added sugar, artificial sweeteners or flavorings. Always check the ingredient label and never use a product containing xylitol.

How to Make Frozen Peach Raspberry Dog Treats

Recipe Tips

Use ripe peaches. A ripe peach will blend more easily and provide plenty of natural sweetness without needing anything extra.

Remove the peach pit completely. Peach pits should never be given to dogs. They are a choking and intestinal obstruction hazard and contain cyanogenic compounds.

Choose plain kefir. Flavored kefir can contain added sugars, sweeteners and other unnecessary ingredients. If you don’t have kefir, you can use plain Greek yogurt.

Mash rather than blend the raspberries. This gives the treats a more interesting appearance and creates little swirls and specks of raspberry throughout the peach mixture.

Adjust the mold size to your dog. Small silicone molds are particularly useful because frozen treats should be given as treats rather than large portions of food.

Variations

Once you’ve made the basic peach and raspberry version, you can easily change the recipe.

Variation	What to Use
Peach & Blueberry	Replace raspberries with ½ cup blueberries
Peach & Strawberry	Use ½ cup chopped strawberries
Peach & Pumpkin	Replace raspberries with ½ cup plain pumpkin puree
Raspberry & Banana	Replace peach with 1 cup sliced banana
Peach & Greek Yogurt	Replace kefir with plain unsweetened Greek yogurt

When using yogurt, choose a plain variety without added sugar or artificial sweeteners.

How to Store Frozen Dog Treats

Keep the treats frozen until you’re ready to serve them.

Once they are completely frozen, pop them out of the silicone molds and store them in an airtight freezer container or freezer bag. For best quality, use them within 2–3 months.

Because these treats contain kefir and fresh fruit, they will soften and melt when left at room temperature.

Serving Frozen Peach Raspberry Treats

Serve these straight from the freezer as an occasional treat.

The appropriate serving depends on the size of your molds and your dog’s size, normal diet and calorie needs. For small dogs, use miniature molds or cut larger treats into smaller pieces.

If your dog tends to gulp treats rather than chew or lick them, allow the frozen treat to soften slightly before serving or use smaller molds.

Treats and extras should generally make up only a small part of your dog’s daily food intake.
