I’m picky about what I feed my dogs and I’m sure you are too. They don’t need junk food any more than people do. I see way too many treats at the pet store containing not-so-great ingredients. Then the ones with good ingredients are expensive.
It’s what lead me to make some awesome homemade dog treats. Cooking and baking is something I enjoy so I might as well make treats for my spoiled hounds.
Here are some awesome homemade dog treat recipes for you to try. They are easy, healthy, and have simple ingredients.
