Show Fido how much you love him on February 14th (and any day!) with this easy and adorable Valentine’s Day dog treat recipe! It’s super easy to make with ingredients you’ll find right in your grocery store. If you’re looking for hypoallergenic dog treat recipes, I’m going to say that this one probably isn’t the best bet because of the beef broth. You could use one of our other hypoallergenic recipes as a base, then follow the rest of this recipe for the frosting (as long as your pooch doesn’t have a dairy allergy).

*Note about the honey: We research every ingredient in our dog treat recipes, even though they’re created by experienced “dog chefs.” While honey is safe for dogs and, based on research, can even be beneficial to them for certain illnesses, I found quite a bit of information related to honey harvested from bees that pollinated Oleander trees. Oleander is poisonous to dogs. While it’s uncommon for honey to be made from Oleander-drunk bees (sorry, I can’t think of a better way to phrase it), one way to be certain that you’re avoiding it is to buy honey from the Midwest or East Coast. Even better, go with local honey producers, get to know them and ask them questions. They’re usually happy to answer!

Now that that’s out of the way, isn’t this such a cute Valentine’s Day dog treat recipe? If you’re worried about the amount of sugar in the honey (spread out across the treats, it’s not much), you could cut it out entirely, and your dog will still be happy.
