These Biscuits are the Key to your Dog’s Heart
Every time I open up a jar of these Pumpkin Peanut Butter Dog Biscuits, my dogs go CRAZY! I make them sit and wait patiently for them and they literally drool just from the smell. I like to know what ingredients are in my dog’s treats and this recipe gives me peace of mind. There are only 6 simple ingredients in these homemade dog treats and they’re super easy to make for your furry friend.
My dogs, Moon and Artemis, have a very active lifestyle and I like to give them each 1 of these treats a day at lunch time for a mid-day protein packed snack. They anticipate these treats the minute we return home from a walk and I like to think it’s the highlight of their day.
