Christmas Treat Recipe: Christmas Biscuits
Recipe & article by: Proud Dog Mom
As you start crafting your Christmas day menu, don’t forget to include a little something special for your canine kids. Since nothing says Christmas quite like a batch of freshly baked cookies, I’m dishing up some simple yet festive dog-approved biscuits!
A Few Notable Dog Biscuit Ingredients
Flours – These treats are made with both oat flour and coconut flour.
Strawberries – This popular fruit is rich in antioxidants that help fight free-radicals in the body, warding off various illnesses.
Mint Leaves – In moderation, mint is great for your pup ’s breath and digestive health. According to the Continental Kennel Club, wild mint, spearmint, and peppermint are all non-toxic to dogs. The only species that you must watch out for is English pennyroyal (Mentha pulegium).
