James was already sitting by the oven before I’d even preheated it. Tail wagging, eyes sparkling — he knew something good was coming. This is our Easter tradition: no chocolate bunnies, no sugar-filled cupcakes… just fresh, healthy treats made for my favorite four-legged friend.


If you’re looking to give your dog a taste of Easter without the worry, you’re in the right place. These 3 dog-friendly Easter treat recipes are safe, easy, and full of tail-wag approval.


Why Make Easter Treats at Home for Dogs?

  • No dangerous ingredients like chocolate, raisins, or xylitol

  • Tailored to your dog’s needs (allergies, sensitivities, preferences)

  • Bonding time — your dog gets excited just from watching you prepare them

From a Sarah’s Perspective

Homemade treats can be healthier because you avoid fillers, preservatives, and artificial coloring. Just remember: even healthy treats should make up less than 10% of your dog’s daily calories.

Final Thoughts

Holidays like Easter aren’t just for us — they’re a chance to create memories with our dogs. Watching James crunch into a bunny-shaped biscuit or happily lick a frozen chick treat reminds me why I love making them from scratch.

So, grab your molds, preheat that oven (or freezer!), and let this Easter be as special for your pup as it is for you. 🐾💛
