Bacon Cheddar Dog Biscuits image

After so many scares of tainted pet food and recently tainted pet treats, I have started to cook my own treats for the mutts. They were already being fed homemade food so treats were the next progression. Since I have the fussiest dogs in the universe, finding treats (and food) recipes is always a challenge but this is one recipe that my guys appear to enjoy!
