Looking for festive 4th of July treats for dogs? Check this out! This recipe only requires three ingredients, which you can swap out to fit your pup’s preferences. Frozen treats like this help keep your pet cool and hydrated in the summer heat!
You can use goat’s milk or alternatives like oat and coconut milk.
The main ingredient in this recipe is kefir. Kefir is a fermented milk product with probiotic benefits plus vitamins in minerals. Other dairy products like yogurt and milk have more lactose compared to kefir. If you’d prefer to not use kefir, you can use goat’s milk or alternatives like oat and coconut milk (unsweetened and unflavored). The kefir or milk you choose will be the white and blue parts of the treat.
To create the blue color, we added blue spirulina powder to the kefir. Blue spirulina is made from a type of algae that contains bacteria that has a naturally blue color. The blue pigment is extracted from the algae and turned into powder to be used as a natural food coloring. Both blue and green spirulina are considered to be superfoods as they have antioxidants, protein, and vitamins.
To create the red color, we used strawberries. Strawberries are low in calories but have benefits like antioxidants, vitamin C, and fiber. If your dog is not a fan of strawberries, you can replace them with other pet-safe, red produce like raspberries or red bell pepper.
While all of these ingredients have their benefits, it’s important to only serve them in moderation. Too much of a good thing can still cause diarrhea and gastrointestinal upset.

Ingredients
- 1 ⅓ cup of kefir (or milk alternative)
- 1 tsp of blue spirulina powder
- ⅔ cup of strawberry (or red produce) purée
- NHV supplement of your choice (for dogs scared of fireworks or crowds, we recommend NHV Lesstress)
Steps to Make 4th of July Treats for Dogs
1. Mix ⅔ cup of kefir with the blue spirulina until an even blue color.
2. Pour the blue kefir into an ice cube tray. Freeze for a couple of hours or until solid.
3. Purée strawberries and store them in the fridge for later.
4. Once frozen, pour the remaining (white) kefir into the ice cube tray and freeze.
5. Pour the final layer of strawberry purée on top of the ice cubes and freeze again.
6. Remove cubes from the tray and drizzle your favorite NHV supplement on top. For smaller dogs, it may be helpful to slice the cubes into smaller pieces.
7. Serve and let your pup enjoy!
Although made with all-natural, whole ingredients, this recipe is an occasional snack. Treats do not substitute regular meals. Moderation is key!

Yucca root is widely used in dog food as well as in other pet foods. It is an herb that is highly nutritive as it is rich in vitamin C, beta-carotene, B vitamins, magnesium, iron, calcium, manganese, protein, niacin, and phosphorus. Yucca contains two very beneficial compounds: sarsasapogenin and smilagenin. These two compounds work on the mucous membranes of the small intestine. These compounds help with the penetration and absorption of minerals and vitamins. Sarsasapogenin and Smilagenin are known as steroidal saponins (phytosterols), which act as precursors to corticosteroids produced naturally by the body.
Steroidal-saponins support the immune function of the body while stimulating and supporting the production of its own corticosteroids and corticosteroid–related hormones. Due to this action, studies conducted on yucca have shown that it may be beneficial and effective for discomfort and inflammation in conditions such as arthritis. Yucca may also be effective as an appetite booster in dogs and may also help reduce the production of urease, which contributes to the unpleasant odors of urine and feces in some dogs.

- Useful for IBD in dogs, food allergies, gastrointestinal ulcers, and bacterial infection of the gut
- Safe for long term use and as a proactive approach to a healthy gut
Like humans, Inflammatory or Irritable Bowel Disease, also known as IBD, is a common gastrointestinal problem in dogs. When your furbaby has IBD, inflammatory cells within their body begin to invade the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The stomach, small intestine, and large intestine are all part of the GI tract. Once inflammatory cells start to take over the GI tract, a thickening of the intestinal wall can occur, upsetting daily functions like absorption and the movement of food (peristalsis). There is no clear cause for IBD in dogs, but studies show that genetic and external factors can predispose your pet to have IBD. Some additional contributing factors may be chronic irritation of the intestines caused by constant vomiting and diarrhea, food allergies, parasites, and autoimmune disorders.
How TumFlora Supports GI Tract Health
TumFlora is a natural herbal vet formulation designed to help improve intestinal flora. In addition to helping improve intestinal flora, and helping with inflammation of the digestive tract, TumFlora contains herbs that are highly nutritious like slippery elm to further help your furbaby heal. Slippery elm is high in vitamins and minerals such as vitamin A, B complex, C, K, calcium, magnesium and sodium. The gentle defense against microorganisms and anti-fungal properties of herbs like oregon grape aid the body to fight off infections. Finally, herbs like fennel and chamomile help to relieve stomach cramps and indigestion and help with overall discomfort.
This soothing liquid formulation is easy to administer and helps maintain a healthy gut. In addition to helping IBD in dogs, TumFlora is also useful for pets suffering from food allergies, gastrointestinal ulcers and bacterial, gut infections. TumFlora is also a great addition to your pet’s daily regimen as a proactive approach for a healthy gut.
Symptoms of IBD in dogs
Dogs will occasionally vomit or have diarrhea because something doesn’t sit right with their tummies, or maybe they ate too much or too little that day. But if your furkiddo begins to vomit and their poops are runny on a regular basis then it could be IBD. Keep your eye out for these additional symptoms:
- Weight loss
- Loss of appetite
- Straining to defecate
- Lethargy
Typically your vet will do a full-body exam, check your dog’s history, conduct a blood panel, take a stool sample, and possibly opt for x-rays and/or an ultrasound. IBD in dogs can be tough to diagnose because your vet will have to check for a variety of conditions as well as vital organ functions before they can confirm diagnosis. Other health conditions that have similar symptoms to IBD are GI parasites, kidney or liver disease, pancreatitis, cancer, or foreign substances and objects in the intestines. To confirm IBD, your vet may eventually conduct a biopsy on your pup's stomach and/or intestinal tract.
Additional Holistic Support for Inflammatory Bowel Disease in Dogs
A combination of vet-prescribed medication and nutritional therapy is often recommended to alleviate symptoms of inflammatory bowel disease. If your pet is prone to inflammatory bowel disease in dogs, changing your dog’s diet to a more gut-friendly one is recommended.

Natural Dog Stress Reliever Supplemental Support
With a heightened sense of hearing and smell, small events that seem mundane to us can be terrifying and stressful for your dogs. Sometimes the stress is from the ride to the office, or maybe they are missing their human companions. This all contributes to changes in behavior like excessive panting, drooling, sweaty paws, dilated eyes, pacing, excessively shedding, or just completely shutting down. Some dogs become so stressed that it may lead to fear and aggression.
Other forms of stress in a dog’s life include:
- Working dogs that are pushed too hard
- Flying on a plane
- Special events (eg. fireworks)
- Staying in a shelter
- The loss of an owner
- The loss or addition of a furry playmate
- Going to a new home
- Moving
In addition to panting, excessive barking/whining, chewing on themselves, shivering (when it’s not cold), panicked tail wagging, or tense muscles, stress can also cause GI tract issues such as diarrhea or vomiting.
The key to a healthy pup is balance. Too much or too little activity can be harmful, as well as too much or too little socialization. A balanced, clean diet also helps maintain the body and the mind. If your dog is susceptible to stress, you can use calming herbs like those found in NHV Lesstress. This formulation gently acts on the nervous system and immune system to provide a natural dog stress reliever.
How NHV’s Natural Dog Stress Relief Eases Stress and Anxiety
For stressful experiences such as separation anxiety, the loss or addition of a furry friend, special events (eg. fireworks) and illness (stress can cause conditions to worsen), the natural (non-addictive) sedative properties of Lesstress gently relax the nervous system and endocrine system. Ingredients like Chamomile, Passion Flower and Lemon Balm work to calm nerves while ingredients like Reishi, Eleuthero, and Echinacea Angustifolia are very beneficial for helping the body adapt to stress and illness and stimulate healthy immune function.
