Valentine’s Day is a special day for all of us – leaving us pups out just ain’t no option! However, everywhere you look, you’ll see stuff for human folk – but us doggies get left out 🙁 That’s about to change with these homemade dog treats we call “You’re My Honey” Valentine’s Day Dog Treats.
Remember though, less is more when it comes to dog treats. Us dogs shouldn’t be fed treats several times a day, and treats should be bite sized so they’re used properly (as a treat, not as a meal). Boy, it hurt to say that WOOF!
Valentine’s Day ‘You’re My Honey’ Dog Treats
Ingredients:
3/4 cup wheat flour
1 cup peanut butter
2 cups oats
1/3 cup honey (plus a teaspoon or so for drizzling)
1/3 cup low sodium chicken bouillon powder
1/3 cup hot water
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350*F.
Combine all ingredients in your mixing bowl. The order doesn’t really matter, but I combine dry ingredients first and then add the wet ones. Make sure you use warm or hot water, not cold water.
Knead dough until you can form a big ball. Add a little more flour if the dough is sticky.
Flatten dough on counter or cutting board, either with your hands or a rolling pin. If the dough is sticky, add a little wheat flour. Dough should be 1/4″ or 1/2″, depending on your preference.
Prepare cookie sheet by spritzing olive oil on it, or use parchment paper.
Bake at 350*F for about 10 minutes, then flip the treats over and bake for 5 more minutes. Cool on a wire rack before drizzling honey on top.
This recipe will make a few dozen cookies. All ingredients are safe for human consumption.

I love this recipe and I am definitely cooking up a batch for my Grand Dogs! Who can resist peanut butter? two legged or 4 legged?
These look easy to make & I bet the pooches would be over the moon for them! Pinned so I can find it when I need it 🙂 Thanks for the awesome recipe!
I might have to try this recipe. I just made a similar one with pb, oats, flour, and bananas.
since dogs dont taste sweet, is the honey necessary? does it add some nutrients?
Looks yummy! Fido will be wagging his tail !!!!
These are adorable, and the recipe sounds like something that is a sure thing, and owners wouldn’t object to! I’d like to try it!
I tried making these and my dogs really liked them. Going through now more of your pet recipes. Please add more for me.
Oh wow, these dog treats sound delicious! I love that they are shaped like hearts, I would use them all year round! 🙂 I love my puppy!
My dogs will LOVE these! Homemade pet treats are so much healthier than store bought. Great way to save money too. 🙂
