So now that you know that dogs can benefit from eating blueberries, how can you incorporate them into your dog's diet? One easy way is to add a handful of blueberries to your dog's food bowl at mealtime. You can also try freezing them in ice cube trays and giving them to your dog as a refreshing treat on a hot day.

Or, for a special treat, you can bake up some homemade blueberry dog treats using this recipe:

Ingredients:

- ½ cup whole wheat flour

- ¼ cup oats

- ¼ teaspoon baking powder

- ⅓ cup unsweetened applesauce

- ½ cup fresh or frozen blueberries

Instructions: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. In a medium bowl, mix together flour, oats, and baking powder. Stir in applesauce and blueberries until well combined. Drop dough by spoonfuls onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and flatten slightly. Bake for 15 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool completely before serving to your dog.

So there you have it – everything you need to know about feeding blueberries to your dog. This surprising superfood is packed with nutrients that can benefit your dog's health in many ways.
