Ingredients
- 1 cup cucumber, shredded
- 2 cups Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon fresh mint
Steps

- Pour the mixture into silicone molds or ice cube trays. Silicone molds are ideal because they make it easy to pop the treats out once frozen.
- Place the molds in the freezer and let the treats freeze for at least 3-4 hours, or until completely solid.
- Once frozen, remove the treats from the molds and let your pup enjoy!
- Store any leftover treats in an airtight container in the freezer for up to a few weeks.
