We celebrated Zoey’s 6th birthday this week and in the spirit of honoring and spoiling our furry family members, I wanted to share a recipe for Homemade Cheesy Dog Cookies. They’re simple to prepare and feature a short ingredient list that you can feel good about feeding to your dog. They’re the perfect treat for when you want to give your pup something special that’s not bad for them.
Before I get to the cookie recipe, allow me to take a short trip down memory lane.
I always love to look back on this photo from the very first night Zoey came home and met Sullie. They became fast friends.
She was the fluffiest little pup and so spirited. Zoey has a big personality and brings tons of energy with her wherever she goes.
We have made so many special memories together and I cannot believe that my baby girl is six years old.
Zoey is now the big sister and I must brag that she is a great one. Finn adores her and they get along so well. We are so lucky to have Zoey in our little family! HAPPY BIRTHDAY SWEET GIRL! <3
HOMEMADE CHEESY DOG COOKIES
I love baking something special for my pups on their birthdays. It’s usually this single-serving, three-ingredient dog friendly birthday cake but these cheesy cookies are a great treat too and I promise your dog will go crazy over them.
True story. The first time I baked these dog cookies, a certain someone whose name starts with a B ate the whole plate save 4-5 of them off of the counter while they were still warm. Take that as a warning that these cheesy dog cookies are irresistible and need to kept far out of what you think your dog can reach.
The star ingredient is sharp cheddar cheese and they smell so delicious and cheesy while they’re baking that you’re probably going to want to sample one when they come out of the oven. 😉
Here’s the recipe!

Hello my friends! I hope this finds you enjoying all of the beauty and fresh starts that spring has to offer (and not too much of the sneezing and wheezing). Life has been good over here. I’m very much enjoying the longer days, cool mornings and warm afternoons and gorgeous blooms. Spring is so lovely [...]

I cannot believe it’s been nearly a month since I completed Moab Run The Rocks! It’s a three-day stage race in Moab, Utah that’s put on by the same race organization, TransRockies Rockies Race Series, that I did my six-day Colorado race with back in August. TransRockies truly excels when it comes to planning and [...]

I recently spent four nights in Moab, Utah for a three-day stage trail race called Moab Run The Rocks. Since returning home, I’ve been telling everyone I talk to about my trip that they must put Moab on their travel bucket list (43 miles of running not required to have an amazing visit to Moab [...]

This potato and broccoli cheddar soup is a warm hug in a bowl. It’s a mash up of potato soup meets broccoli cheddar soup, and makes for a creamy, hearty and cheesy bowl that has just enough broccoli in it to make you feel like you’re getting your veggies in for a complete meal. POTATO [...]

I am sitting down to write this post with teary eyes and a heavy heart. On New Year’s Eve we said goodbye to Zoey. It seems like only yesterday that I brought this fluffy nugget home. Many of you have been here with me since Zoey was a puppy. She was the sweetest little sister [...]
