Some call the canine “man’s best friend”. If that’s the case why are so many of you feeding your dog so-called treats made of animal parts unknown? I mean, seriously, what’s really in those store-bought, over-processed, bone-shaped dog cookies anyhow?
Why not treat your pooch to a good home-cooked meal. A meal with bacon.
That’s exactly what Maggie from Michigan did for her pups. She created what she calls Nutty Bacon Dog Treats and shared the recipe on her blog called “Dog Hill Kitchen”.
Now, there’s no way that we’re going to taste test these doggie delights, but in an informal survey of some four-legged fur balls the bacon dog treats earned a solid Smaste™ rating of Woof Woof. I’m not sure what the conversion factor is for dog Smaste™ to people Smaste™ but I’m guessing that’s a pretty high mark.
So read Maggie’s recipe for bacon dog treats and make some for your pet. Let us know how warmly they’re received!

You’re relying on the 4-legged beasties to tell you if they’re good or not? These lifeforms will eat their own poop and go back for seconds! And if they don’t do that, they’ll go out, find the most rotten carcass they can find, roll in it, and bring back samples for you to try. Dogs seem to be second to goats when it comes to eating things.
Seriously though, there’s no reason not to try it. The standards for pet food are generally higher than for processed human food. Think of it as going that extra mile for your readers.
