💡 Wamiz tip: If you’ve baked a large batch, you can place a few in an air-tight container and pop them in the freezer. That way, whenever you want to show your dog some love in the next few months, you can spoil them with a delicious heart-shaped treat!
🍏 Nutritionist’s advice: Cranberries are rich in vitamin C and antioxidants, which boost the immune system. Linseeds are rich in omega 3 and 6, which are both beneficial for your dog’s coat and skin health! All in all, this treat is very healthy for your dog, but make sure not to give them too many at once, particularly if you own a small breed.
🐈 Suitable for cats: Yes, in moderation
Your dog won’t be able to resist being your Valentine after they get a taste of these delicious snacks! Happy Valentine’s Day!
