Valentine’s Day: A Simple and Lovable Homemade Treat for Your Dog

Valentine’s Day is the perfect occasion to spread love to everyone, including your beloved pups! Show your love and appreciation for your loyal best friend by creating homemade treats that are not only delicious but also made with care. These simple, 6-step recipes can be the start of a new Valentine’s Day tradition with your four-legged family member!

❤️ Valentine’s Day Biscuits:

1. Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees.

2. In a bowl, combine 3 ½ cups of blended oats or whole wheat flour.

3. Add 1 cup of pureed beets for a delightful red color, and crack in 2 eggs.

4. Mix all these heartwarming ingredients together.

5. Roll out the dough and use a heart-shaped cookie cutter for an extra touch of fun!

6. Place the biscuits on a cookie sheet and bake in the oven for approximately 20 minutes.

❤️ Valentine’s Day Frozen Treats:

1. For a refreshing twist, start by adding 6 strawberries to your blender, for a bright pinkish color.

2. Add ⅓ cup of plain nonfat Greek yogurt.

3. Add 1 tablespoon of dog-safe peanut butter (xylitol is an ingredient found in some peanut butter and it is unsafe for dogs).

4. Add water as needed for a runny texture and blend all ingredients together.

5. Place blended mixture into a silicone ice mold.

6. Freeze for 4 hours.

Each of these 6-step recipes will have your dog drooling over their favorite foods from your fridge! If you find your pup does not like strawberries or beets, you can use other fruits like bananas! Just remember, if you plan on substituting any of the ingredients, make sure they are safe for your pup first!
