Buddy can\u2019t wait to try the Howl You Doin\u2019 Biscuit.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

When my husband and I started dating in 2017, we shared six family pets \u2014 two cats and one dog in each household. Our parents have only three pets total now, but we still love visiting them \u2014 and our families, of course! One of my favorite things to do as content editor is trying new dishes for our recipe spreads. I love experimenting in the kitchen and making themed fare, and that\u2019s not exclusive to food for humans.<\/p>\n

May is National Pet Month, and what better way to celebrate than with homemade treats? Owners know their pets best, and making their treats ensures control over what ingredients dogs and cats ingest. When making treats for dogs, make sure to never use products (like some peanut butters and yogurts) that contain xylitol, an artificial sweetener that is toxic to dogs. The best practice is to research ingredients before you try any recipes; there are great articles on the American Kennel Club and Purina websites about what human foods are and are not safe for dogs and cats. And, if you don\u2019t have pets but love baking, file some of these recipes away as a gift idea for someone who does.<\/p>\n
