The dog treats with tuna, carrot, and banana can be easily made at home with fresh ingredients, the important thing is to respect their proper nutrition. A small reward to make our furry friends happy. Here is the version of dog treats with fruit and oats.
The flours most suitable for dogs are those without gluten, which in itself is not harmful to the dog, but its consumption should be limited, so it is better to choose those lower in gluten, like rice flour, corn, whole wheat, spelt, oats, etc. Other ingredients not to put in the biscuits are salt and sugar, but those to absolutely avoid are macadamia nuts, raisins, avocado, chocolate, garlic, onion, and baking powder.
Get some cookie cutters in the shape of a bone, or fun shapes like a paw print, to also have fun preparing the treats for your four-legged friends. The biscuits I made are in two versions, banana, and tuna with carrots, and they keep for about fifteen days when stored in a glass jar. The banana can be replaced with an apple and the tuna with cooked ham or boiled chicken breast, let your imagination vary the flavors.
