February 23 is International Dog Biscuit Appreciation Day. Celebrate accordingly. They say every dog has his day... today, they all get that day at once. Just imagine: dog biscuits without having to do tricks. We should all be so lucky. Who invented International Dog Biscuit Appreciation Day? Most likely a human, though I suppose it could have been a very smart dog, like a Rhodesian Ridgeback.

If you're into doggy DIY, you can make your own dog biscuits.

Can you eat dog biscuits?

Yes! (Hey, Jennifer Aniston's done it) Dog biscuits are food-grade, and probably better for you than most junk food. Go for the organic stuff, though- anything mushy could have lower-quality ingredients more suited for animals who eat socks than those that prefer cheeseburgers. I've tried this myself once: on a dare, I devoured one of Lola the NowPublic Office Dog's cookies. It wasn't bad. She was jealous. Swedish comedian Svullo used to incorporate eating dog biscuits into his early acts.

My dogs are so well fed they turn up their noses at biscuits. It takes cheese or lunchmeat to achieve the usual result!
