Golden Retrievers And The Holidays
Don’t Forget To Shop For Your Golden Retriever
The holidays are almost here, and while your running in and out of the stores shopping don’t forget a few presents for your Golden Retriever. As you know, golden retrievers want to be involved in everything, and opening presents is no exception.
Every Christmas I wrap about 10 gifts for my Golden. They can be as simple as a couple of large dog biscuits in wrapping paper, or a dog ball with a bell in it, or some chew toys. It’s simple, cheap and easy, and it will bring a lot of laughs to Christmas morning, because golden retrievers love to get involved in everything, and will definitely steal the show.
Want to give your Golden a simple holiday treat. Put about two cups of dry dog food in a blender, and cover with water. Let it set for 10-15 minutes till soft. Take a couple of tablespoons of peanut butter and melt slightly in a bowl in the microwave.
Pour the peanut butter into the blender. Blend everything until mixed. Pour into paper cups, only filling them about ¾ full, and place in the freezer. When they are slightly frozen stick dog biscuits into them, standing up like popsicle sticks, and let them freeze solid. They make great treats, paper cup and all, and golden retrievers love them because they are tasty, and cold.
You can vary this mix with yogurt and peanut butter, yogurt, peanut butter and bananas, fruit juice and dry dog food. Use your imagination and the combinations are endless. Don’t worry about the measurements, dogs don’t complain.
