Pinterest is a wonderful site where millions of people share everything under the sun. A quick search can reveal amazing treats you would never think possible! Below you will find two which I have wrangled up to get you going! Enjoy!
Recipes for Homemade dog treats::
Easy Pumpkin Breezy!
You will need: 1 cup of plain yogurt, 1/2 cup of peanut putter (stick with creamy), and finally one can of PURE pumpkin purée. Please do not use canned pumpkin pie filling!
Next you just need to whip together all of the above yummy ingredients until they are smooth and creamy.
Then spoon the mixture into ice cube trays of your choice. Try to use different themed cube designs to make it fun and festive.
Finally place the tray into the freezer and let them chill overnight. Serve individual cubes to your pet! Yummy!
Apple Chips
This one takes the cake! Super easy and healthy beyond compare! All you need is a fresh organic apple! Slice super thin pieces taking extreme care to avoid getting to close to the core. Lay the slices out on a wire rack. Once finished with the slicing, put the rack with your slices onto a cookie pan. Heat your oven using the lowest temp possible. Place the tray into the oven for about five hours. Cool then place in an air tight container.
Basically you’re dehydrating the apples so if you have a dehydrator, feel free to use that. This treat is packed with vitamins A and C along with fiber.
