Doggy Biscuits

Our beloved puppy, who is not a puppy anymore, receives special privileges as well. Yep, you guessed it, homemade treats! I like to know exactly what is going into her tummy to prevent any sickness. I like to make her treats using natural foods, and bonus, I can eat them too. I make a large batch and keep them in our freezer. She does not leave my side when I am in the kitchen. Just look at those puppy eyes. How can anyone resist giving her what she wants?
