Why Baked Dog Treats Are Special
There’s something comforting about the smell of fresh-baked treats filling the kitchen — and it’s not just for us humans. Dogs know when something special is in the oven.
Baking dog treats lets you control every ingredient , keep things wholesome, and make snacks that are crunchy, soft, or somewhere in between. Plus, the oven brings out natural flavors, making even simple recipes irresistible.
Jewel knows the sound of the oven timer. By the time it beeps, she’s already sitting in her “treat spot” by the counter, waiting for the magic moment.
“Homemade baked treats aren’t just food — they’re moments shared in the kitchen.”
