Are you ready with your green for St. Patrick's Day? If not you may get pinched! To get in the spirit, try out this dog friendly cookie recipe made with coconut flour and spinach (or kale). Teddy is one of those weird dogs that likes kale. You can always use wheatgrass or kale powder to give a natural green color. Let us know how you plan to celebrate St. Patrick's Day with your pup!
