Pets bring so much joy to our lives that giving them something special is the least we can do. Making natural treats for your dog or cat is easy and fun, and there are many gifts you can make: from all-natural, herbal grooming products and flea repellents to healthy, home-baked cookies and biscuits. All of these recipes and projects make wonderful gifts for pets and their owners.

Homemade Snacks for Dogs and Cats

Nothing beats homemade baked goods! These tasty treats use healthful, all-natural ingredients, such as whole wheat flour, oatmeal and wheat germ. When your pets beg for more, you can whip up a new batch in no time at all, as both the Basic Doggie Biscuits and Kitty Cookies are very easy to make.

    FYI: Garlic is toxic to dogs in any amount. It breaks down their red blood cells and in large amounts over time can cause nasty things like kidney damage. I'm really quite surprised this article was published.
