vegan dog treats from three different brands

‘Treat’ Your Dog to These Vegan Biscuits and Cakes

Published by Melissa Sanger.

Giving vegan treats to your animal companions is easy when you shop at bakeries dedicated to creating delicious canine snacks free from animal products. Opting for vegan treats means you’re not contributing to the suffering, abuse, and terrifying, agonizing deaths of billions of animals exploited for food every year. After all, cows, pigs, chickens, and other animals killed for their flesh feel joy, love, fear, and pain just like dogs.

From plant-based biscuits to dog-friendly Paw-reos, these bakeries not only satisfy dogs’ cravings but also promote compassion with every tasty bite.

The following bakeries “treat” animals right:

With fresh, simple, all-natural ingredients and a commitment to scrumptious recipes, it does Bocce (and all dogs) proud. Vegan flavors and varieties include the following:

  • Biscuits—Banana Split, Bedtime Tea, Birthday Cake, Breath Biscuits (Apple & Mint Recipe), Pumpk’n Harvest, Turmeric Latte, and Unicorn Shake

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350ºF.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and ground cinnamon.
  • Mix in the pumpkin and peanut butter, then slowly add the water. If the dough is too sticky, add a bit more flour. If it’s too dry, add a small amount of water.
  • Roll the dough out to 1/4-inch thickness on a lightly floured surface and use a knife or cookie cutter to cut out whatever treat shapes you desire.
  • Place the treats 1/2 inch apart on a nonstick baking pan or a baking pan lined with parchment paper.
  • Bake for 20 minutes.
  • Let the treats cool and then let your dog have a taste!
