A GREAT WAY to treat your pet is to bake your own dog biscuits and treats while you’re making your yearly holiday cookies or desserts. And, wouldn’t homemade dog biscuits make a fun gift for your dog-owning friends and relatives? (Not to mention your own pet’s doggie buddies!
)
This recipe comes to us from Perfect Pets Rescue...the folks who gave me one of the best gifts I ever got…Etta!
