Your dog will love eating them as much as you enjoy spoiling them!Ever since we got Rhett I’ve come to fully understand what it means when they say that your dog becomes a part of your family. My life has come to revolve around this pup to a point where I sometimes wonder if my obsession is inappropriate…and then I meet another dog owner and feel completely at ease!

Dog owners are whole-heartedly infatuated by their fur babies. They say things like “fur babies” for gods sake. And yes, I’ve become one of those people. So it can’t be that surprising that I’m posting about homemade dog treats.

I was a ticking time-bomb.

Treat your pup with these Grain-Free Sweet Potato Dog Treats made from just 5 wholesome and healthy ingredients. Your dog will love eating them as much as you enjoy spoiling them!The only problem with creating a dog-friendly treat recipe for Rhett is that he’s the pickiest eater (kind of like his mother…hi Sab!). Like most dogs he loves meat, but peanut butter isn’t really his jam (punny). He has a weakness for all things dairy but C and I had to live through the aftermath of that only once to ban dairy.

But the other day I was eating sweet potatoes and he kept begging for them. So it turns out the guy likes sweet potatoes! A man after my own heart.

That gave me the idea to develop a recipe for grain-free dog treats using sweet potato, because they’re super nutritious and tasty and helped create the right consistency for treats.

  1. The dough was very crumbly even after adding a total of 1/2 cup of liquid – would not stick together to roll. Tried making small balls & they still fell apart. Any idea on why? Smells great though

  2. I don’t understand the part about swapping the trays – I have one oven rack – how do I swap the trays? Would only put one tray at a time in the oven. Should I shut off the oven and leave it in there after the first 25 min?

  3. Debating on trying, however, if I do I will add a honey crisp apple as well. My puppy’s faves, other than meat and cheese,🙄seem to be sweet potatoes and apples. Ooh and carrots too! 😊
