When times get tough, make sure you have snacks! We've compiled a list of fresh and frozen essentials to keep your pup stocked up while sheltering in place during the COVID-19 pandemic. These staples are safe, cost-effective and long-lasting foods that you and your fur baby can enjoy together.
#1 Oats
Oats make a great, hearty base for snacks like these Vegan Pumpkin Dog Treats or these Cranberry Cinnamon Dog Cookies. Plus, they're rich in soluble fiber which helps keep your pup's digestion healthy.
#2 Sweet potatoes
The antioxidants in sweet potatoes support a healthy microbiome. Top your pup's kibble with these Mashed Sweet Potato Spinach Bites, or dry them and make chew treats.
#3 Frozen veggies
Frozen broccoli, carrots, cauliflower, and peas make excellent kibble toppers! Just steam and cool the veggies, then add to your pup's meal.
#4 Natural peanut butter
This one is a no-brainer! Feed PB to your pup on a spoon, in a kong, or in cookie form, and they'll love you forever. (Be sure to avoid brands with added sugars or xylitol.)
#5 Nutritional yeast
Nooch is high in protein and packed with B vitamins, making it the perfect seasoning for your pup's kibble. Pair it with our Savory Vegan Kibble Oil recipe to add a little extra zest.
