Not my idea…as far as I am concerned dogs aren’t children, however, others in household have suggested this may be a nice idea…Hmm.
Mindful dogs cannot eat chocolate so have been looking at alternatives. Dog Easter eggs are made from Carob. Only ones seen online are made by Hatchwells. Not a huge amount of online info re composition.
Personally I would rather give fish skins as a treat.
Anyone else giving their dogs Easter treats ?
Any Thoughts ?
My dog has an egg every Sunday. Boiled, poached or scrambled, whatever we are having. I don’t think I will be doing anything different for Easter but I did make her a gotcha day cake on Halloween!
Don’t give treats other than sea jerky Tiddlers and one gravy bone biscuit at bedtime. They will probably get a scrambled egg for Easter - they love it. Usually add a little bit of Yeo Valley organic plain yoghurt as they enjoy that too. They will probably also get some cooked chicken added to their usual cold pressed food.
I can’t find the ingredients in Hatchwells dog easter eggs so can’t say if they’re healthy/natural.
You don’t necessarily need to buy dog branded carob eggs - you could buy carob in drops or powder form to make your own treats. I give carob drops as treats to my dogs.
Drops: Amazon.co.uk : carob drops
Powder: Amazon.co.uk : carob powder
Betty Miller makes natural treats that contain carob (they’re not Easter related though):
