Friends and family across the country will soon gather to celebrate Thanksgiving. My dogs count as both, which is why I include them in the food-centric festivities by making them an extra-special treat to enjoy.
This year, I plan to bake up a batch of Kira and Angie’s Thanksgiving Feast Treats, a recipe that writer Claire Lower shared last year on Dogster. These dog-friendly cookies contain limited, healthy ingredients — including turkey! — and take less than an hour to make. See the recipe here.

Claire has other dog-treat recipes that are perfect for the holidays, too, such as her Olive Oil and Flax-Seed Cheese Biscuits and Kira’s No-Bake Carrot Cake Balls, and for those of you who put up your Christmas tree before Thanksgiving, check out her Minty Carob-Dipped Christmas Cookies.
And since we’re already talking about Thanksgiving, I’d be remiss if I didn’t share these reminders of what NOT to feed your dogs from the holiday table and why:
