Easter is just around the corner! While my furry friend is fully expecting a basket stuffed to the brim with tasty treats, most Easter candy is not suitable for canine consumption.

Here are 7 tasty dog treats that are relatively easy to make just in time for Easter. (Just a quick disclaimer -- be sure to talk to your pup’s vet to make sure that the ingredients listed are safe for your dog).
