 It's Pets Day

And I am celebrating my Yappy Birthday with a cut card and dog treats.  My card is a stamp from Jessica Lynn original and paper I had on hand. 

Homemade Cheesy Bite dog treats: 

2 sweet potatoes

1/2C  Cheder cheese

1tablespoon olive oil

1. Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C).
2. Wash and peel the sweet potatoes. If your dog prefers a softer chew, you can slice them into 1/4-inch thick rounds. For a chewier texture, cut them into long strips.
3. In a mixing bowl, toss the sweet potato slices or strips with olive oil to lightly coat them.
4. Arrange the sweet potato pieces on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, ensuring they are not touching each other.
5. Bake in the preheated oven for 3 hours, flipping the pieces halfway through. The sweet potato chews should become dry and slightly crispy. You can adjust the cooking time to achieve the desired level of chewiness.
6. While the sweet potato chews are still warm, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over them. The residual heat will help the cheese melt and stick to the chews. Allow them to cool before serving to your dog.
