We've been giving Summit, whole, real foods, since the moment he first entered our lives. Along with his usual Ollie (read more on our experience here), he loves to nibble on carrots, cucumbers, blueberries, strawberries... the list goes on and on. So when it comes to giving Summit treats, while I do have a few store bought brands I love (check out Old Mother Hubbard), a lot of times it's just as easy to make my own!

Play it safe and keep it plain. You can always add whole, natural fruits yourself, as I've done here. Go Greek Just like humans, pups can also show ...
