I don't think I can wait until my dog's birthday to try these fun, frosted, organic peanut butter biscuits.

Bocce's Bakery Biscuits

Bocce's has some of the most inventive dog biscuit flavors with creations including peanut butter and banana, burgers and fries and even a pumpk'n spice for fall. No matter which bag of Bocce's I bring home, my pup devours them and there's a good chance yours will too.

Homemade Bacon Snickerdoodles

Seriously, now I'm jealous. Dogs are out there getting bacon snickerdoodles? I don't think these cookies even exist for humans yet, so I'm for sure taking a handful and running. It's hard to imagine a combination of flavors, including honey, cinnamon and bacon, that your dog would love more in a treat than this one.

Pooch Creamery Dog Ice Cream

In the dog days of summer, doesn't your furriest buddy deserve a frosty treat too? These ice cream mixes are grain-free and made from a short list of pet-friendly ingredients, in flavors from peanut butter and dog-safe carob to watermelon and birthday cake. All you have to do is add water and freeze overnight.

LegitPet Calming Hemp Dog Treats

The CBD craze is not just for the two-legged among us. Owners of anxious animals often sing the praises of hemp extract (which won't get you or your dog high) for soothing and calming those hyper puppies out there. Try these organic CBD dog treats with hemp and valerian to calm your fidgety fido.

Bacon Cheese Biscuits

I promise to do my best not to sneak a couple of these dog treats from Baxter made with all-natural ingredients, but when I hear bacon and cheese in the same sentence it usually means I'm gonna eat whatever the thing is. These are some of the most well-reviewed dog treats on Amazon, and since dogs can't really use computers I'm guessing I'm not the only person who's had this thought.

Bacon Jerky

Bacon never goes out of style -- just ask any dog who has jumped higher than they ever thought they could to snag a piece off the kitchen counter. Now pups can have their own "human-grade" bacon, so everyone is happy.
