Parsley & Peanut Dog Treats

Macy, especially, loves these Parsley & Peanut Dog Treats

Most people wouldn't think to give parsley to dogs. Amazingly, parsley is considered by many to be a very healthy food for dogs. Not only can parsley help dogs with bad breath, it can also help dogs with arthritis and heart problems. If your dog is ever stung by a bee, you can rub parsley and water on the sting to help sooth the area. 

Macy & Thelma love these treats. We love that their breath is freshened and the added vitamins & protein they're getting from the peanut butter and parsley. I chose to make small teaspoon-sized treats but feel free to make them larger for bigger dogs. 

I store these treats in a large jar, in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. These treats also freeze well for up to 2 months.
