Whilst not an Easter Egg per se, I wanted to tell you about Burn’s treats. They are a small mouthfull of sustainable and natural ingredients. My dog is a huge fan and is a bit fussy. So, if you have a fussy dog who wants to be included in easter but doesn’t love doggy choc. These start at £3.49 and are fab.
