Easter time is abundant with treats and delicious snacks for us humans. But our dogs can't share human Easter eggs or hot cross buns, so why not get them a dog safe Easter egg or make one of our recipaws above.
Things to do with your dog at Easter
If you want to include your dog in your Easter celebrations how about giving your dog their very own dog-friendly Easter egg hunt?
Hide dog-friendly treats that have a strong smell around your house or garden and let them explore. This can provide great mental stimulation for your pooch as well as entertainment for you.
Chocolate for dogs during Easter
Chocolate is toxic for dogs and so make sure you keep any Easter chocolate out of reach of your dog. Why not try treating them to a small amount of dog chocolate instead? There are lots of different types on offer including Easter-themed options.
Just remember to feed them their doggy chocolate in moderation!
