Acai Bowl Dog Lick Mat Idea
In case you’re new here, one of my favorite things to do is to create fun, healthy and delicious dog enrichment recipes! My top favorite dog enrichment recipes I like to make are dog lick mat recipes ever since I discovered the creativity that dog owners were putting into them.
Now, all I want to do is create as many awesome dog lick mat recipes that pet parents can make in minutes for their pups to give them mental stimulation and help reduce anxiety and stress in their dogs! This recipe is inspired by one of my favorite healthy treats, the Acai bowl! Grab the ingredients and dog lick mat below, because we’re about to make our very own acai bowl dog lick mat idea!
Acai Bowl Dog Lick Mat Idea Ingredients:
For this frozen Lickimat idea, you’re going to need the following ingredients, tools and Lickimat below:
- 2 small handfuls of blueberries
- 2 strawberries
- 1/2 a banana
- Dog safe peanut butter (Poochie Butter is featured here & one of our faves!)
- Charlee Bear Grain Free Crunch Treats (or any crunchy dog treats you can crush!)
- Blender (I use my Ninja Bullet System!)
- Cocktail Muddler (I use this to crush/mash everything)
- Lickimat UFO
Now let’s see how to make this dog lick mat recipe!
How To Make: Acai Bowl Dog Lick Mat Idea
Step 1: Add your blueberries to your blender with a splash or two of water and blend.
Step 2: Fill your Lickimat UFO with the blueberries and place in the freezer for at least two hours.
Pro Tip: Blueberries/blended liquids take a little time to freeze, so whenever I make recipes with them, I’ll do it either the night before or do it and then work on something/play with the dogs and come back to it!
Step 3: Grab your two strawberries and cut them in half down the middle.
Step 4: Grab your 1/2 banana and cut it up into individual pieces.
Step 5: Once the blueberries are frozen, grab your Lickimat UFO from the freezer to start adding your “toppings”. Start with placing your strawberries in a row and then your bananas next to it.
Step 6: On your cutting board or plate, grab your Charlee Bear Grain Free Crunch Treats & your cocktail muddler and begin mashing until the treats are crushed to form your “granola”.
Step 7: Sprinkle your granola in a row next to your chopped banans and strawberries.
Step 8: Drizzle your Poochie dog peanut butter over to finish the toppings! Freeze for 1-2 hours or overnight and serve to your pup!
