Make your pet a special treat for valentines day. From heart shaped dog biscuits to a heart shaped dog toy. For less than $10 you can make them both.
1. heart shaped cookie cutter from dollar tree
2. Natural Peanut butter and other ingredients
3. Red cloth or felt from Walmart
4. Use old t-shirt or newspaper and shred for stuffing
The heart cuddle toy:
Draw a heart, fold in half and cut along the lines. Do this for two separate sheets of material and hand sew them together leaving some room to stuff with material.
Spray the material with your favorite scent. Vanilla is our favorite.
Turn right side out and stuff the toy.
Voila a perfect little heart for your dog to enjoy.
The heart dog treat:
You can make all natural dog treats in many shapes but our favorite is the heart shaped valentines treat.
Total Time:30 min
Prep:10 min
Cook:20 min
Ingredients
Vegetable oil cooking spray
2 cups whole wheat flour, plus more for dusting
1/2 cup old fashioned oats
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 cup low sodium chicken broth
1 cup creamy peanut butter (try the natural peanut butter for a healthier option)
Place an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F.
In a large bowl, combine the flour, oats and baking powder. Stir in the broth and peanut butter until the mixture forms a crumbly dough. Press the dough together to form a ball.
On a lightly floured work surface, knead the dough for 30 seconds until smooth. Roll out the dough into a 10-inch circle, about 1/2-inch thick. Using a heart shaped cookie cutter, cut out bones and place on the prepared baking sheet (any scraps of dough can be formed into a ball and re-rolled).
Bake ~20 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and cool completely. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
