Easy and quick recipes for homemade dog biscuits for Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day is just around the corner. For some it is pure romance, for others it is just a day like any other. Nevertheless, it offers a good opportunity to pamper your loved ones. Because not only the partner is pleased guaranteed about a few extra flowers, also your beloved four-legged friend can get his money's worth on the day of love. And because love goes through the stomach, we present you today two delicious recipes for hearty dog cookies for Valentine's Day. Easy to make, beautiful to look at and ideal for giving as gifts. With the help of our magic ingredient beet, our self-made cookies not only get a beautiful reddish color, but also the healthy plus. Beet is full of vitamins, iron, potassium and other nutrients, has a positive effect on the immune system, as well as the digestive tract and also makes shiny fur and resistant dog skin.

A little tip: The beautiful red-pink color of the beet has a disadvantage - it stains. So when cooking, baking and handling the red tuber is best to wear gloves and an apron.
