Peanut butter oatmeal dog treats

Peanut butter oatmeal dog treats Today, I am super excited to share my techniques for making another truly wholesome dog treat with you. After-all, your furry companions deserve healthy food, so that they can be their best selves. These pup treats are the perfect snack to make ahead of time for your cuddly pooch as a reward for their love and companionship, obedience, potty-training, or for any other training in general. My fur baby seems to think that the treats taste better when they're made in different cute shapes. So, I use three different cookie cutters when I make these dog treats.

Tips for Bathing Your Pup

Image by oritslama from Pixabay Tips for Bathing Your Pup Getting Ready Before you start giving your dog a bath, make sure you have everything you need. This includes dog shampoo, towels, a brush, and treats to reward your pup for being a good boy or girl. Choosing the Right Shampoo Not all shampoos are created equal! Make sure to use a shampoo specifically made for dogs. Human shampoo can be too harsh for your furry friend's skin. Getting Wet When it's time to get your dog wet, use lukewarm water. Make sure to wet your pup's fur thoroughly before applying shampoo. Be gentle and make sure to avoid getting water in their ears and eyes. Scrub-a-Dub-Dub Once your dog is all wet, it's time to lather up that shampoo! Gently massage the shampoo into their fur, making sure to get all those hard-to-reach spots. Don't forget to rinse thoroughly to avoid any leftover soap residue. Drying Off After the bath is done, it's time to dry off your dog. Use a towel to gently pat...
