Thanksgiving Day Dog Treats

Kharma’s Cheesy-Carrot Muffins


Thanksgiving. A time to spend with family and friends, both human and pets. This is also a time for food. My family does a pot-luck meal and rotate locations. That helps a lot ... because the host (for that year) doesn't have to spend hours (or days) cooking and have more time enjoying the day.

Kharma enjoys spending Thanksgiving with the family too. He loves the extra people showering him with doggy massages, playing with toys and, of course, he looks for any food dropped from the table. As most pet owners know, not all “people” food isn’t good for dogs.

This Thanksgiving, I'm bringing dessert for us humans, and healthy dog-treats for Kharma, his famous Cheesy-Carrot Muffins. They're healthy and don’t contain processed items. I spoke to Kharma's Vet and got the “A-okay” for the ingredients. There is wheat flour in the muffins, I recommend and encourage anyone who plans to use this recipe speak with your vet to ensure all the ingredients won't cause any food allergies for your dog.
