If you’ve ever looked at the price of fresh dog food delivery and wondered whether you could make something similar at home, this recipe is a great place to start. It’s a hearty, one pot meal built on lean ground beef and lentils, with sweet potato, carrots, and spinach rounding it out. The beef and…

Pumpkin and applesauce might be the most reliable pairing in my dog treat rotation. Pumpkin brings a mild, earthy flavor and gentle fiber, and applesauce adds natural sweetness and moisture, so the dough comes together without any oil, sugar, or fuss. The result is a soft, slightly chewy treat that smells like fall while it…

My dog can hear a bacon pan from two rooms away, so it was only a matter of time before I turned that obsession into a biscuit. These bacon dog biscuits are crunchy, simple, and packed with the smell dogs go wild for, but they’re made with a small amount of crumbled bacon rather than…

Fresh cooked dog food delivery services have made a lot of owners curious about what it would take to make something similar at home. The appeal is easy to understand: real chicken, real vegetables, gently cooked, with nothing on the label you can’t pronounce. The good news is that the idea is simple and very…

There’s something satisfying about coming home to a crockpot that’s done all the work for you, and that convenience applies just as well to cooking for your dog as it does to dinner for the rest of the family.

There’s something extra fun about a treat on a stick, and these peanut butter pupsicles give your dog their own proper popsicle to enjoy on a hot day. Blending in a banana makes these creamier and a bit sweeter than a simple frozen cube, and serving them on a stick makes the whole experience feel…

These frozen bites combine parsley, mint, and plain yogurt into a cool, creamy treat that doubles as a breath freshening habit, perfect for hot days when a frozen treat is already on the agenda. Unlike our Green Dog Breath Mints, which set into a chewy gummy in the fridge, this version freezes into a smooth,…

I decorate sugar cookies with my niece every December, and a few years back she asked why her dog never got any — a completely fair question I didn’t have a great answer for. The honest issue wasn’t the cookie itself, it was the icing, since every recipe I knew used powdered sugar and sometimes…

There’s a particular kind of treat that seems to exist purely to slow a dog down, and sandwiched treats are exactly that.
