Christmas Doggie Treats
Christmas Doggie Treats can be as much fun for you and Rover. Treats purchased at the pet store or grocery store may contain unwanted or dangerous ingredients, such as sugar.
If you leave cookies and milk out for Santa or your just enjoying a late night snack, your pet can have a Christmas cookie and they won’t feel left out of the Christmas joy.
This recipe has natural ingredients. Therefore, you know what you are giving your pet.
You can use Christmas cookie cutters. Like candy canes, bells, Christmas trees, and stars. Just to name a few.
