Easter for your Furry Friends

Hello. My name is Rachel and I am one of those dog owners. Our dog is our baby and we treat her as such.

Meet Macy Jane. The most spoiled pup in town. {I mean really….could you say “no” to those eyes?}

My holiday lovin’ heart can’t bear to leave this girl out of the festivities. Macy brings smiles to the neighborhood kids every year by donning the traditional hot dog costume, and I repay her for her embarrassment in the form of a Christmas stocking and an Easter basket {And lots of treats and snuggles every other day of the year. See? Spoiled.}.

To be fair, it’s really all for me. I don’t think she knows Christmas from Tuesday, but it’s a fun and festive way to restock her toys and treats. It’s a win/win, really.

I stopped by Kroger on my way home from work one day last week to pick up a few essentials, and I totally got caught up in the pastel goodness of the Easter aisle. Good ol’ Kroger. I was able to get every single item I needed for Macy’s Easter basket! {and maybe a couple chocolatey items for myself. ahem.}

I picked up a basket, tissue paper, mini rawhide chews, a new toy, Easter themed cookie cutters to make homemade treats, and the ingredients for those treats. And gold eggs. Because GOLD.

I used the tissue paper as filler instead of typical Easter grass. It’s a lot less messy and I don’t have to worry about the pup getting into it.

I put a little extra tissue in the balk half of the basket to add a bit of height; and then layered all of the goodies in the basket.

I made the Easter Bunny shaped biscuits with this recipe {the peanut butter pumpkin one}. I’ve always wanted to try homemade dog treats and it was even easier than I anticipated!
