Like many of you, I’m obsessed with dogs. My Instagram feed is 90% dogs, I read many dog blogs, and I grin whenever I see a dog in public.
But the most important dogs in my life are the three that live with me. They each have their own personalities, likes, and pet peeves.
Throughout the day, I make time for my dogs. I try to have my dogs practice their tricks a few times a day and reward them with small treats. At the end of every day, Theo and I hang out together. Nelly happily sits in my lap or nearby, while Sophie prefers to lounge on the kitchen floor.
Although Theo loves cuddling and plush toys, he is always hoping for a treat or a snack. Occasionally, I like to give my dogs a snack just for being themselves. Theo is incredibly food motivated, and I think he appreciates getting a snack for no apparent reason. (Other than we love him.) I’m pretty sure my dogs equate food with love.
This weekend we’ll be having an early Thanksgiving dinner with my husband’s family. It is always a big event. My brother-in-law provides the staples, and everyone else brings a few dishes. We’ll be bringing a couple of side dishes, including homemade cranberry sauce, sweet potato casserole, as well as a pie. (I will make two of everything, one to share and one to enjoy at home.)
There will be about 40-60 people there, including a lot of little kids. Unfortunately, it isn’t a dog-friendly event, so my pups will stay at home.
And although I love my husband’s family, interacting with so many people in one day leaves this introvert a little exhausted. As you might suspect, my favorite way to recharge is by spending time with my dogs.
I’m already looking forward to cuddling with my dogs on the sofa. I’ll also be enjoying the perfect post Thanksgiving snack: Crantastic Crostini. It is an easy and tasty snack for humans but not so great for dogs. However, much to Theo’s delight, I picked up a bag of Vita Bone® Artisan Inspired®Biscuits Turkey Stuffing & Cranberry flavor dog biscuits.
Theo is absolutely wild about the taste! He nearly lost his mind waiting for his snack.
Made in the United States, Vita Bone Artisan Inspired Biscuits are made with real meat, fruit, and vegetables. They are free of corn, by-products, or artificial flavors. The Turkey Stuffing & Cranberry flavor smells just like Thanksgiving dinner.

Your photos are gorgeous, I just want to hug Theo! We love VitaBone treats at our house too. The Turkey, Cranberry & Stuffing flavored ones really do smell just like Thanksgiving! My dogs love them. I am amazed that you can make TWO of everything for Thanksgiving – I really admire your ambition, LOL!

One and half backpacks says
I love your photos, they are so cute 😀
Ruth Epstein says
Enjoy your Thanksgiving with your family. I also prefer to stay at home than go out to dinners but if I have to I go and try whenever possible to take Layla.
Great Giveaway but Layla does not eat biscuits so we will be skipping this great give away. Good luck to all those that enter

The treats look great enough for humans to eat and the doggy is perfect for any commercial.

aisasami says
Wow, these look amazing! I am glad there is a variety of treats for dogs! My dog only got the basic snacks back in the day.
The Dash Kitten Crew says
Thispost made my mouth water and I confess I laughed at the lip licking pup! Even the dog biscuits look delicious although as someone who is not keen on large family gatherings you have my sympathies about the crowds.
Jana Rade says
That does sound yummy. Though Cookie prefers turkey breast to the stuffing 🙂 Actually, she has no idea what the stuffing tastes like. She does love the organs that we put in the stuffing, though.
Jerrieal Small says
These are so cute for your pup! I don’t have a dog yet, but I have been thinking about getting one for Christmas or after.
Beth says
Getting a dog is always so exciting! I hope you’ll consider adopting one!
Sandy Kubillus says
The biscuits look tasty and I love your photos. Just in time for a Thanksgiving treat!
Jenna Emmons says
Those dog treats look almost as good as the crostini. I’m sure your pups will love them but miss you during the family celibration.
Emilia says
Those biscuits sound good enough for us to eat! I wish there was something like that for kitties too. Your thanksgiving gathering sounds really good (though I’d be exhausted by it too.)
Sweet Purrfections says
Looks like some puppies are going to have a delicious Thanksgiving treat!
Linda Szymoniak says
I know my dogs would love these. And, on the off chance they don’t, I just might eat them myself. They sound so good!
Linda Szymoniak says
I have three crazy rescued Treeing Walker Coonhounds and more than anything, they love to eat! After that, it’s running around our back yard and barking. Of course, even more so they love going for walks!
Cassie says
These sound great and so easy to make for the pups
Happyoodles says
Turkey stuffing and cranberry favored treats. What a great idea! Now the pups can join in on the Thanksgiving fun even if they are not invited to the table. Thanks for sharing. BTW love the pictures.
Beth says
Thanks!
Val Ledesma says
My 3 pets love to stand next to me in the kitchen to see if I’ll share any human food with them hahahaha
Emma Caristi says
Figgy would think it was Christmas
