Anyone that has a dog and likes to do special things for them on their birthdays or on a holiday should make his or her own dog treats. My dog loves to eat, even as she is getting old, so it is easier to play with her when using food instead of the millions of toys she has. When I heard of this recipe, I thought she would love it, just like she did with the strawberry ice cream treat.

With this recipe you can add a tablespoon of flax seed oil and a teaspoon alfalfa powder before mixing it together. These ingredients have added health benefits for dogs. Flax seed oil is good for a dog’s skin and coat. If your dog has mild allergies or arthritis flax seed oil could show improvement. Alfalfa powder also has a strong source of vitamins and minerals.
