Take Advantage of this Special Offer for Dog Biscuits!

Just a reminder to all my friends and followers that dog biscuits are now available for $10 for a pack of 12 assorted biscuits, as announced previously. The third batch has been baked and is ready to go. Charlie has approved all the samples we gave him (and is sleeping off the treats as I post this).

Please feel free to contact me at sharonadamon@gmail.com to arrange for payment through Paypal. If you order this week, I will find a cute container in which to ship your biscuits to try safeguard any breaking or cracking - that's about the best I can do from this end.

Love and hugs to all who have already ordered and to those who do so in future. Please help promote my little business so I can move on to stage 2 and offer more treats!
(for humans AND pets!)

Working on the Poster, Making Biscuits and Gettin' it Done!

Good Morning!

The business plan is now set and costs with handling fees will be posted soon. More ingredients are needed because of the evident interest and folks already asking to purchase these wholesome treats, plus the camera needs batteries so folks will know what they are getting when they place an order! I have a poster prepared with room for these photos and it also lists ingredients. Exciting times, and just think - you are in on the "ground floor!"

Charlie after his bath. He got a WHOLE Elvis Pupsley for that!

The Big Six

Good Morning!

I got up early and figured out my "Big Six" dog biscuit recipes. They are: Elvis Pupsley Biscuits, Pumpkin Pizzazz, Tail Waggers, Puppy Paws, Barkley's Blueberry-Apple Biscuits and Charlie's Mini Carrot Pupcakes :) I am drying my own blueberries as I type this. Charlie will be in 'hog heaven' for the next while as I perfect these recipes before offering them for sale.

The plan is to sell these treats in variety packs of 6 or 12 biscuits. I am still working on the financial aspect, and shipping logistics, but I plan to box them in cute tins or boxes as part of the presentation.


Once everything is figured out, and my camera is once more functional. I will post pictures of these treats here and in my Little Cook blog as well as the Facebook Page. The operation should be a 'go' within the next week.


Here's hoping! I'll keep you posted!

Welcome to Homespun Treats for Folks & Critters

Welcome to the first steps of this new venture in my life. I have always prided myself upon being a homespun Prairie girl, a 'crafts person,' baker, writer and more. So now, as I venture into previously uncharted territory, all I feel is excitement for sharing my growing line of pup and people treats, gifts and more with YOU. Join me on my journey and become part of Homespun Treats for Folks & Critters!


My first attempts at a dog biscuit. "Elvis Pupsley"
is in the house with this wholesome blend of 
peanut butter, a touch of honey, an egg, flour 
a mashed banana and just a pinch of salt. It's
definitely Charlie-approved, which says a lot 
when you have a finicky treat-eater! Details for 
purchase will follow after I the other treats, biscuits and cookies for the 6- and 12-packs.
