Canine Cooking Corner: Autumn Apples!

Wolf: "Hey, Bandit, hu-mom left her apple unattended! Let's get some licks in."

Bandit: "Nommm...hurry up, Wolfie. I think I hear hu-mom coming back."

FiveSibesMom: "Ahem. Did you guys lick that apple?"

Silence...with two sets of blue eyes (not-so-innocently) staring at me in Husky denial.


This past weekend dawned with brilliant folliage on the trees further up north from us. So, during a lovely drive through what looked like a beautiful Autumn painting, we spotted a cute little roadside orchard that bright orange pumpkins piled in the back of an old red International pickup, and inside was a cooler full of fresh-picked, large apples! We chose a bag of Honeycrisps, and they were hands-down the best apples we or our Huskies ever took a bite of! No wonder Wolfie and Bandit were tempted to a few licks of my apple!

Did you know...?

Apples are healthy treats for dogs either as an addition to a homemade treat, or even fresh apple bits? (Just be sure to never give your dog the apple core or seeds! Those (and leaves) can be toxic to dogs, cats, and horses according to the ASPCA toxic plant list. Be sure to throw them away where your dog cannot get to them)!

 


Looking for some healthy apple treats for your dog? Check out this YUMMY doggie version of apple crisp, compliments of our friend Jessica from the famous Gone to the Snow Dogs kitchen! 

 



 And, Jessica also whips up some doggylicious dehydrated apple chips for the snow dogs, too! Can you say, "wooooo?!"



 

Many thanks to Jessica and her Snow Dogs for the great apple recipes! Be sure to check out their award-winning GTTSD YouTube channel for a lot more siberlicious recipes!

 

So while the weather is gorgeous and the apples are tasty and ripe, why not head out and get a bag or bushel from your nearest orchard? Your dogs will thank you! Don't forget your mask and some hand sanitizer!

  1. Honey crisps are a big hit here too. Mom misses the good old mcintosh of New England, the ones here can't compare. But honey crisps are doing the trick. Misty and Lightning LOVE apples, but Timber won't touch the tiniest piece. He is not a fruit boy:)
