Instructions:
Heart-Shaped Dog Biscuits: Start by placing heart-shaped dog biscuits in the center of the charcuterie board. These cute treats set the love-filled tone for the celebration.
Puppy-Safe Cheese hearts: Cut puppy-safe cheese (make sure it's lactose-free) into bite-sized cubes or hearts and scatter them around the board. Dogs love the savory goodness of cheese!
Sweet Potato Chew Sticks: Add sweet potato chew sticks to provide a crunchy and healthy snack for your dog. Sweet potatoes are a great source of vitamins and fiber.
Turkey or Chicken Jerky: Include small pieces of turkey or chicken jerky. These protein-packed treats will make your pup feel like they're indulging in something special.
Berries (Blueberries and Strawberries): Dogs can enjoy berries in moderation. Cut blueberries and strawberries into smaller pieces and distribute them across the board for a burst of natural sweetness.
Carrot Sticks: Dogs love the satisfying crunch of carrots. Place carrot sticks on the board as a tasty and nutritious addition.
Dog-Friendly Peanut Butter: Create a peanut butter drizzle by microwaving dog-friendly peanut butter for a few seconds until it's pourable. Drizzle it over some of the treats for an extra touch of canine decadence.
Apple Slices: Slice up apples into dog-friendly portions. Apples add a crisp and refreshing element to the charcuterie board.
Salmon Bites: Salmon is a favorite among many dogs. Provide small, bite-sized salmon pieces for a flavorful and omega-3-rich addition.
Crunchy Kale Chips: Bake kale until it becomes crunchy, and scatter the kale chips around the board. Kale is a nutritious leafy green that your dog will enjoy.
