Healthy dog treats are all the rage now, as smart dog owners look on the labels and say NO! to products that are made overseas, especially those from China. We love Nylabone treats for our dogs, the edible and the durable kind, but they are not cheap, and we have 5 dogs and 3 cats to care for.

Our Buddy is always asking for treats, but he is a bit plump, so we also like to be careful of how many calories we are giving him each day. Now that we make his treats ourselves, we can control portions and know exactly how much he is eating.  If you have a senior dog, one who is watching his weight, or are just interested in all natural dog treats, try these handy recipes and see what a difference it can make to your dog.
