Note: If you’re making some for humans we recommend adding more cheese, using less parsley and adding a bit more seasoning… Believe us, we tried!
If you suspect your doggy is lactose intolerant we recommend removing the cheese from the recipe or choosing another recipaws. Make sure to only use curly parsley, and it should only be given in moderation. Some studies also show that pregnant dogs can go into early labour with too much parsley, so we'd avoid this recipe if your pooch is in pup.
Make sure to always adjust your dog’s daily food allowance so they don’t gain weight while enjoying their delicious new snacks.
Any new food should be added gradually to your dog's diet so they don't get a poorly tummy. Avoid giving your dog any foods that they are allergic or intolerant to, or if advised against by your vet.
