Treats can make any dog’s day, especially when they’re easy to make! Give these recipes for oven-baked treats a try, and consider freezing some for later.
Preheat the oven and prepare a baking sheet. If your pet suffers from food allergies or sensitivities, feel free to switch out for gluten-free flours instead. Add cookie cutter shapes as desired before placing the dough into the oven for baking.

This minty treat from The Produce Moms will freshen your dog’s breath with the aid of fresh parsley and mint, while also fighting bacteria and odor in their mouths.

Pumpkin and Peanut Butter Treats
Pumpkin is an excellent source of vitamin A and provides an alternative to wheat flour for dogs with food allergies. Peanut butter provides both protein and healthy fats; for maximum benefit use a natural peanut butter without added sugars or artificial sweeteners like xylitol. Eggs help bind together treats while cinnamon adds a delightful extra touch.
Making these treats with your Express Dog Treat Maker is simple. Just combine mashed sweet potato and all natural peanut butter (no added sugars or additives) with flour until pliable and mix until smooth and soft; use your hands if necessary to knead until combined.
Show Me The Yummy has developed these no-bake pumpkin peanut butter treats as an easy, tasty, and healthy reward to train or reward your pup! Perfect for training or rewarding purposes.
