Many people enjoy baking Christmas cookies around this time of year, and I’m no exception. But the sad look on my dogs’ faces as they lay on the kitchen floor, watching tray after tray of delicious looking, heavenly smelling people cookies coming out of the oven, well, it just makes me sad. Why should they be left out of the fun and food of the holidays?
That’s why I set out to find some of the yummiest – and healthiest – doggy cookie recipes around, and today I’m sharing a few of my very favorites. This season when you’re doing your holiday baking, why not make your mutt happy with a few of these tasty treats.
- Snowflake Cookies from Pretty Fluffy
- Carob Chip Cookies from Minnie in Manhattan
- Blueberry Dog Cookies from Lola the Pitty

December 17, 2016 at 1:38 pmI have 2 pits I got this year so for Christmas I decided make them home made cookies and treats. Come to find out they are way better for them and they like them better than store bought treats.
