When you think of New York food, you most likely think of pizza..and bagels! Sure, they are both delicious, but what happens when you combine them together? The best ever, occasional dog friendly treat!
Go to any health food store in your area, and you can most likely find gluten-free bagels. Now, we know New York bagels are the best, but for dogs, we like to recommend a gluten-free variety. Since bagels are high in calories, please limit this as an occasional treat. We think it is best before a strenuous hike, as it will give your dog some necessary calories for top performance.
This may be one of our easiest recipes ever, but we can guarantee that when you make one for your dog, you are going to make one for yourself too!
