Why not treat your favorite pooch to some homemade dog treats. These treats and cookies are made from natural ingredients so they are safe for human and beast.

To make the fun dog bone shapes you will need a Silicone dog bone cookie sheet or dog bone cookies cutters. Using a silicone pan is great because they pop right out and cook evenly.
