How to Make Frosting for Dog Treats

If your dog is one of the family, you will want to celebrate his birthday. You may have purchased some chew toys as a gift, but what do you do about a cake? It is not healthy to give dogs cake or regular icing. A better option is to make some frosting that won't hurt your dog and decorate some of his dog treats. Then you can eat the cake with your family while your dog enjoys some treats.
