Sweet Potato Dog Treats

DIY

Easy to make sweet potato dog treats that consist of just one simple ingredient – guaranteed to make you the best dog parent around!

Sweet Potato Dog Treats

Did you know…

That sweet potatoes have some of the highest fiber amongst vegetables, and most dogs love them? 

Absolutely indeed – and onward we go on making our own homemade sweet potato dog treats. ðŸ¤¨

I’m sure that if you are a pet parent you are all too familiar with the dog treats you can often times find in bags in the supermarket. Some of them are big bags, some are little bags… some are expensive bags 😱

Buying dog treats can definitely be a hit on your budget, especially if you have one hungry dog who loves to devour them by the bag (and quite literally!)

Homemade Dog Treats

Making your own dog treats is actually quite easy – especially when they are one simple ingredient (hello – sweet potatoes!) They are so delicious your pup will love you forever!

Sweet Potato Dog Treats

If you can buy some sweet potatoes, slice them into 1/4″ slices and throw them on a dehydrator tray, then you have it made. The hardest part might just be waiting for them to dry…

Flip on the dehydrator and allow them to dry over a period of 7-8 hours; before you know it, your house will smell incredibly cozy and you will have a new tasty dog treat on your hands.

(By the way, they aren’t ‘just’ for dogs… I actually happen to like dehydrated sweet potatoes too and I’m human!) My kids thought they were a delicious treat and actually consumed 1/4 of the treats before I could let them cool and bag them up.


Sweet Potato Dog Treats

How do you know when they are done?

  • You’ll want to aim for 7-8 hours on the dehydrator – your sweet potatoes should be leathery. Should you leave them in there longer (or slice them too thin) then they will be crispy. Follow these tips for the best sweet potato dog treats:
  • Cut the sweet potato into slices at least 1/4″ or more (you want them thicker than potato chips!)
  • Dehydrate them at 130-135 for 7-8 hours; check on them halfway through and flip (if needed) or rotate trays.
  • Allow them to cool once they are done dehydrating. Then store in a tightly sealed ziplock bag or food saver bag if they are traveling by mail to friends or family.
