Give Your Dog the Gift of Natural Homemade Dog Treats - Recipe

Just like humans, the more “natural” the food one eats, the better one feels. Lots of dog treats today are processed with so many preservatives, chemicals, additives, and other unhealthy ingredients that don’t contribute to your dog’s total good health.

Many all-natural dog treats manufactured today are chemical-free; however, it is always best not to get fooled with the big “natural” label marked on a product. “Natural” has been so overused, that sometimes it’s just actually more of a label than what the product actually is. Nevertheless, there are still several all-natural dog treats on the market today that really provide a healthy snack for your dogs.

On the other hand, if you love making your own treats for your dog, as I do, then baking some natural dog biscuit can be the most excellent treat he’d ever had. Making your own all natural dog biscuit is an excellent way of ensuring that your dog gets only the healthiest and chemical-free treat for his snacks.

Last Years Christmas Present

 

Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse;
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there;
The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
With no thought of the dog outside filling their head.
And mamma in her ‘kerchief, and I in my cap,
Knew he was cold, but didn’t care about that.

When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter.
Away to the window I flew like a flash,
Figuring the dog was free and into the trash.
The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow
Gave the luster of midday to objects below,
When, what to my wondering eyes should appear,
But Santa Claus - his eyes full of tears.
He unchained the dog, once so lively and quick,
Last years Christmas present, now thin and sick.
More rapid than eagles he called the dog’s name.
And the dog ran to him, despite all his pain;
