🥥 Tasty Tuesday – Coconut Comfort Treats

Winter dryness doesn’t just affect skin on the outside — hydration and nourishment from within matter just as much. Coconut, when used thoughtfully and in small amounts, can help support skin, coat, and digestion during the colder months.

Coconut oil is rich and warming, making it best suited for occasional treats rather than daily snacks. Paired with yogurt, it becomes a comforting, winter-appropriate enrichment option that many dogs love.

• ½ cup plain, unsweetened yogurt (or goat milk yogurt)

• 1 teaspoon virgin coconut oil (melted)

2. Stir coconut oil into the yogurt until well blended.

3. Mix in oats if using.
