How to Make Chicken & Rice Ball Treats for Dogs

Dog owners can make delicious and nutritious food for their furry family members if they keep a few things in mind. Dogs have special diet restrictions that make some foods such as sweets and raw meat unsafe for them to consume. Like the other members in the family, a dog requires a quality diet to grow and stay healthy. Chicken and rice balls combine the protein, carbohydrates, fat and nutrients that dogs need. Consider introducing chicken and rice balls to the family's furry friends.
