Did you know that research done by Pets At Home last year showed that more than a quarter of Brits will purchase a Valentine gift for their dog but not for their partner? As pet ownership has increased significantly since that time and because we are all so thankful for the unconditional love and happiness that our dogs give us, that statistic is likely to be much higher this year. As so many of us are at home at the moment, making our own dog treat could be an appealing pastime. So we give a few dog treat recipes to show your dog you care.
Dog treat recipe for a meat lover
We posted our Chicken and Rice dog biscuit recipe back in 2019 and have received so many comments from pet parents who say their dog can’t get enough of it. The ingredients are not only nutritious, but are particularly gentle on the tummy too. Why not try it yourself and see what your dog thinks?
A treat for pups with a sweet tooth
There’s no reason why a dog treat has to come in the form of a biscuit – treats come in lots of different ways too. In recent years, people have gone mad for the taste of sweet potato fries. This Sweet Potato fries recipe from the folks at Beagles and Bargains could be just the thing for your pup. Using dog friendly ingredients, this nutritious snack is worth trying.
A little something for the apple of your eye
Two Little Cavaliers provides great inspiration for dog-appropriate recipes and their Apple Cinnamon dog treat recipe is no exception. If your dog is partial to apple, this is a winning combination of ingredients to keep that little tail wagging.
Let us know which one your dog preferred. Happy baking!
Please note: If you are unsure whether these treats would be suitable for your own dog, please consult your veterinarian for dietary advice specific to your pup.
