1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper—trust me on using parchment, or you’ll be scraping stuck training treats while your excited dog spins circles.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk eggs and chicken broth together until smooth and slightly frothy. This creates the perfect binding base that holds up to enthusiastic chomping.
3. Gradually add flour and finely chopped spinach, mixing until a cohesive dough forms. The mixture should smell absolutely amazing and feel slightly sticky but moldable.
4. Roll out dough on a floured surface to about 1/4 inch thick, then cut into small training-sized pieces about the size of your pinky nail for perfect portion control.
5. Place treats on prepared baking sheet with space between each piece and bake for 15-20 minutes, checking at 12 minutes. They’re done when firm to touch and gorgeously golden.
6. Let cool completely before training sessions—about 10 minutes if your pup can wait that long. Always let cool completely to prevent distracting your dog with hot treats during important commands.

Storage Tips
