B.I.Y. Dog Biscuit Mix Review

This year, we are always looking for different and fun things to do while staying at home. Kona loves being in the kitchen and helping me whip up new dog treat creations that he can share with all his friends.

Contrary to what many believe, homemade dog treats are incredibly easy with ingredients you probably already have on hand. The Trader Joe’s Dog Biscuit Mix is great for beginner and experienced bakers. All the mix calls for is a little bit of water and oil and some time in the oven. The mix also comes with some recipe ideas for those who want to spice it up by adding in their pup’s favorite ingredients – peanut butter, apple, and even bacon! Another plus is that veterinary nutritionists help to formulate the mix to ensure it is a nutritionally balanced treat for your dog.

Kona and I decided to throw in some bacon and peanut butter into the mix (one of the recommended recipe ideas). We simply mixed all the ingredients together in one bowl, rolled it out, and made some treats using his favorite bone-shaped cookie cutter.

Into the oven they went, the aroma spread throughout the house while they baked, and moments later they were ready for Kona to taste test. Kona’s verdict: wonderfully DELICIOUS. He was licking his lips for seconds.  Believe him when he says your pup will LOVE these too.

Grab this mix at Trader Joe’s for $2.99 while supplies last. It’s a great buy for yourself or as a gift for another dog-loving friend.
