About Homemade Dog Treats
Making dog treats at home can be fun for you and your children. Because each pet may have special needs make sure to review each recipe to insure it is appropriate for your pet. Remember these are treat recipes not "dog food" so they should not be used in excess.
Shapes And Cutters
Cookie cutters are available in countless shapes, sizes and themes. Make treats that are suitable for the size of your pooch. If you prefer to not buy cookie cutters you can use the open end of a juice can, a small glass or or a biscuit cutter if you have one.
Ingredients
One of the benefits of making your own treats is that you can control the quality of what goes in the treats. We suggest using the same quality products as you would if you were making food for yourself. For example use natural peanut butter rather than products with a lot of added sugar. Use organic flours and meals if they are available to you.
Controversial Ingredients
There are some ingredients in large amounts that can be deadly to your pet. Sometimes those ingredients may be called for in very small "flavoring" quantities. If you see any of these ingredients in a recipe you'd like to use then you should consult with your veterinarian to see if the recipe is appropriate for your pet otherwise leave the ingredient out or select another recipe. Here are some potentially harmful ingredients:

Dog Treat Icing And Decorating
Homemade dog treats can be left plain or adorned. If you want to keep
the sugar content of your treats to a minimum then your icing options
will be limited. While use of chocolate is not safe and should not be used you can use carob or even white chocolate which does not contain the harmful compounds or regular chocolate.
