I use honey in the Frosty Paws I make for my golden retrievers.

That's great. I will mix honey with ACV see if my baby likes it.
What is Frosty Paws, is that a treat?

I use honey on sick dogs (not dogs that are vomiting) to soothe the tummy and jump start the appetite. On dogs that are really peaked after heavy exercise I couple about a tablespoon of honey with about two teaspoons of blackstrap molasses.

My dogs and I enjoy raw, unfiltered honey. Supposedly, it's helping us with pollon allergies. I don't know if it's that or something else we're doing, but Emma hasn't had a Benedryll in over two months.

Frosty Paws is a frozen treat. I think there are several different recipes and I do vary mine. But I start with a 32 ounce plain yogurt, 3 bananas, 2 tablespoons of honey and 2 tablespoons (heaping) of peanutbutter. All this is blended together with a blender--I have to do my in halves as my blender can't hold it all at once. Also from time to time add things like a litte applesauce, a jar of baby food sweet potatoes, etc.

I bought 2 dozen small glad rectangle throw away containers with lids and I divide it up into the 24 containers, put lids on and freeze. And I reuse the containers. Some make them in the 3 oz dixie cups. With mine, I break them up into pieces and put them in the dogs pans for their late night treat--which they LOVE.

Bee pollen(capsules) are also supposed to be good in treating allergies.Some dogs wont eat honey,pollen is a good substitute.
