Why Fiber Matters for Your Pup, Too
Fiber is essential for both humans and dogs, supporting your pup’s well-being in some pretty impressive ways.
Our just better.® Super Fans have shared their stories of how their furry friends have benefited from a little fiber in their routine. From smoother digestion to much easier backyard pickups 💩, here are a few reasons fiber-rich treats like this one can make tails wag:
Weight Management: Fiber helps pups (and people) feel more satisfied, which may reduce overeating—especially important for dogs managing weight or diabetes risk.
Heart Support: Plays a role in maintaining healthy cholesterol levels and supporting overall cardiovascular health. (And for us, too!)
Balanced Blood Sugar: Metabolic health is important no matter how many legs you walk on! 🐾 A fiber-rich diet helps promote more stable glucose levels for everyone.
Fewer Scoots: A healthier digestive system can help reduce those awkward “bum-dragging” moments.
Better Bathroom Breaks: Supports regularity, so potty routines stay more predictable and on schedule.
Cleaner Pickups: Firmer stools make cleanup quicker, easier, and more pleasant for everyone.
Gut Health & Immunity: A healthy gut microbiome can strengthen your dog’s immune system and contribute to overall well-being.
As we celebrate National Dog Month, adding a fiber-friendly freezer pop to the mix is a fun way to show some love—while supporting health from the inside out.
JBB Reminder: Before adding any new supplement to your pet’s diet, check with your veterinarian to make sure it’s the right fit for their individual needs.
Ingredient Highlight
Strawberries: These juicy berries are full of antioxidants, vitamin C, and fiber. They’re also generally safe for dogs in moderation, making them a great fruit to blend into a shared summer treat. Their natural sweetness and bright flavor shine in frozen recipes.
Banana: Bananas offer potassium, vitamin B6, and natural sweetness without added sugar. They add a smooth texture when blended and are commonly used in dog-friendly snacks for their gentle digestive qualities.
Plain Greek Yogurt: Rich in protein and calcium, plain Greek yogurt forms the base of this recipe. It creates a creamy texture and supports healthy digestion. We always recommend plain yogurt to keep it safe for pups.
