But a close second is actually making and decorating those little brown biscuits into something adorable. :)

That's why this month I wanted to show you this great sample pack of different flavors and types of icing from K9 Cakery.com.

In this sample pack you receive:

• sugar free yogurt icing mix
• yogurt royal icing mix

There's no need to decide or choose which icing is best to decorate with, try them all and make your pooch jump for joy at her very own special decorated homemade dog treat. :)

DogTreatKitchen.com Testimonials

"I love your newsletter and site. Thanks so much for all the information. I'm kind of a novice, but your site has inspired me for my little dog."

"I want to thank you for the helpful hints and recipes! My German Shepherd is allergic to corn and because of this, we have to be very picky on what she can have to eat. Even when we purchased biscuits from the store that did not have corn products in it, she would still have problems. We searched for recipes to make and we found your website with lots of treats that she can eat. I can now give both my pets treats and not exclude the other. Thanks again!"

Dog Treat Baking Tips

"When I make up my treats I use half the dough with the cookie cutter for biscuits. The other half I roll into bread sticks and then with scissors I cut off bits in 1/4 to 1/2 inch segments. They are now training treats. My Jack Russell loves them."
