After a long day at work or an eventful weekend, don’t just treat yourself to a delicious dessert – make sure you’re treating your pets, too. These homemade dog treats are easy to make with organic ingredients, so you can show your pets some love while feeling confident that you aren’t putting their health in jeopardy.

Gather just a few ingredients and cute dog-shaped ice molds (like paws or bones) to give Fido the attention he deserves. The best part: these treats keep well in the freezer, meaning you can make a bigger batch to stay stocked up on your furry friends’ new favorite treat.
