Valentine’s Day isn’t just for humans—our dogs deserve a little extra love too. These Valentine-ready strawberry yogurt heart biscuits for dogs are a wholesome, homemade way to spoil your pup with something special, festive, and nutritious.

Best of all, you control exactly what goes into them, making these treats ideal for pet parents who prioritize health, simplicity, and love in every bite.

Why Homemade Dog Treats Are Worth It

Store-bought treats often contain fillers, artificial flavors, and excess sodium. Homemade treats let you:

• Use real, recognizable ingredients
• Avoid artificial colors and preservatives
• Customize texture and size
• Celebrate special occasions safely

These strawberry yogurt biscuits are:

• Baked, not fried
• Naturally sweetened with fruit
• Easy to digest
• Perfect for gifting to fellow dog parents

Ingredients

• 1 cup oat flour (or finely ground oats)
• ½ cup fresh strawberries, finely chopped or mashed
• ¼ cup plain unsweetened yogurt (no xylitol)
• 1 tbsp coconut oil, melted
• 1 tbsp water (as needed)
• Optional: 1 tsp honey (optional, dog-safe)

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 325°F (165°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a bowl, mash strawberries until mostly smooth.
3. Stir in yogurt and melted coconut oil.
4. Add oat flour gradually, mixing until a soft dough forms.
5. Add water if dough feels dry.
6. Roll dough out to about ¼-inch thickness.
7. Cut into heart shapes using a cookie cutter.
8. Place biscuits on prepared baking sheet.
9. Bake for 18–22 minutes until firm.
10. Cool completely before serving to your dog.

Safety Notes for Dog Treats

• Always use plain yogurt (no sweeteners).
• Avoid artificial sweeteners—xylitol is toxic to dogs.
• Introduce new treats gradually.
• Adjust biscuit size based on dog size.

Texture & Storage Tips

For crunchier biscuits, bake an extra 5 minutes at a lower temperature. Store in an airtight container for 5–7 days, or freeze for up to 2 months.
