Want to make some yummy treats for your pup? Here are some homemade dog food recipes and treats that are vet approved and tasty!
Sometimes, when we’re in a bind, we want to give our pups something quick. That’s when standard pet food and these quick and easy KONG fillers come in super handy.
But on occasion, us dog parents like to bake special treats for our best friends, and prepare our dog’s meal with extra love. If we’ve got leftover chicken or in-season fruit, it’s fun to make homemade dog food recipes, homemade treats, and everything in between.
And for others of us, commercial dog food hasn’t worked well for our furry friends. And we’ve had to fully switch to a homemade diet for our dog. This post will give you all you need for a home prepared diet, including all sorts of treats… Even doggie breath mints!
Read on to find treats that’ll hide your dogs pills, doggie birthday cakes, meatloafs, treats with meat, treats with fruit and veggies, and much more!
Enjoy and give that furry friend a hug from us!

Peanut Butter and Bacon Dog Biscuits
Ingredients
- 1 cup oat flour or pulse rolled oats in food processor
- 1/4 cup peanut butter smooth, all natural, no artificial sweeteners
- 1/4 cup finely crumbled crisp bacon, fat trimmed
- 1 banana very ripe, mashed
- 1 large egg
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 F.
- In a medium bowl, use a hand mixer to fully combine the oat flour, banana, peanut butter, egg, and crumbled bacon.
- On a clean flat surface, roll out the dough mixture to about 1/3 inch thickness. Or roll them thicker, and cook a little longer.
- Use your cookie cutter to cut the individual biscuits, or shape with hands, and place them onto a parchment-lined or non-stick cookie sheet. (If you need to lightly grease your cookie sheet, use a small amount of olive oil.)
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden and dry.

Nothing says fall like pumpkin treats. Pumpkin is also great for doggie digestion! Your pup will love these peanut butter pumpkin dog treats, and you can adjust the recipe to include or exclude grains as you see fit.
Yes, dogs love it!
These cupcake treats are perfect for dogs with food allergies. “Warning: they don’t look pretty, but Fido will love them!” says Mrs. K. “They freeze well, and you can zap them in the microwave for a nice, occasional dog snack.”
Freezing and microwaving, great idea!
What is the average shelf life on these wonderful treat? ????
The shelf life would depend on the filler you choose for your Kong. Fresh food will not last long at all but dry food choices would follow the shelf life guidelines for the product you purchased or made.
