Today we have an easy cheesy cheddar dog treat recipe that is so tasty; you might want to try a bite! Of course, Fido may get a little upset with you stealing his nom noms! For our canine pals with allergies, I wouldn’t call this one a hypoallergenic dog treat recipe since Dairy is a common allergen. If your pooch is sensitive to things made with regular flour, you can easily substitute it with another type of flour (coconut flour, whole-wheat, etc.). Just keep in mind that the consistency may change a bit. Let’s check out how to make this easy cheesy cheddar dog treat recipe, shall we? Don’t forget to print the recipe card and watch the video tutorial for detailed instructions.

Hi there! I'm Nicole, the editor-in-chief and one of the writers here at DogVills. I've been a dog owner for most of my adult life and a dog lover for much longer than that. I grew up with a wonderful German Shepherd named Jake, who I loved SO much that I named my son after him. When I'm not writing for DogVills or my own site, Pretty Opinionated, I love spending time with my teenager (when he actually lets me) and my Pharaoh Hound, Freya. I'm also an avid reader AND a total TV fanatic.
