These chicken dog biscuits are so easy to make, you’ll never buy store-bought again!

I’ve made my own dog biscuits for over 10 years now.

It started with the pet treat scare out of China all those years ago. When I make my own, at least I know what they are eating and won’t be poisoned!!

Dog biscuits are really very easy to make. They only key to it is getting a dough you can roll. That’s about it!

3-Ingredient Chicken Dog Biscuits

The original recipe for these treats I found on Pinterest. The site caters to dogs with allergies–so if your pooch does have allergies, you might want to check out the other treats they have recipes for there. My dogs are fortunate enough not to have any sensitivities, so I will use whole wheat flour as the base. However, any type of flour–except our white–can be used. The original used rice flour.

You may have to add a few extra drops of the chicken stock/broth to get the rollable consistency. Luckily, baking dog biscuits isn’t the exact science like it is for cakes.

A quick and easy way to cut them is to use a pizza cutter and cut to the size you want. I got the fancy shape from these dog biscuit cutters if you’d like to be fancy or give some as a gift to your dog loving friends.

This is a good recipe for making smaller batches so your pooch always has fresh!

Making your own dog treats is less expensive, more wholesome and a lot safer than buying them at the market.  Dog biscuits are very easy to make.
With all the recent scares about pet treats, many people have started making their own.  At least you know you are using the purest and safest ingredients, so you have peace of mind.
Dogs go crazy over pumpkin (and peanut butter) and they will love these biscuits.  My guys go nutso over them.  FYI, if your dog is experiencing any stomach upsets, the very best thing you can give them is equal parts of pumpkin puree and plain white rice–and whatsmore, they LOVE it.

Update:  I’m disabling comments on this post reason being I’ve had numerous come through moderation from stern lectures (sorry I don’t need those) on canine nutrition all the way to raving dietary LUNATICS and I have no time for this and I’m not publishing baseless rants. My dogs eat grain and have not got a problem with it.  If you don’t feel comfortable giving your dog wheat/grain products, just don’t make the biscuits or substitute something grain-free.  It’s that easy, trust me.

  • 2 eggs

  • 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
  • 2 1/4 cups whole wheat flour
  • additional water to make a workable dough

  • Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Turn off the oven and let the biscuits sit in the oven until oven cools.
  • Remove biscuits to a rack to dry overnight. Makes about 20 biscuits (I used a medium bone cutter, approx 3-inches long)
