How to make home-made treats for your dog
Kit J.F.R. Murray
Do you like a treat, I know I do. Even more so when I have done something especially well or maybe completed a task that I found difficult. It should come as no surprise that our canine friends feel the same and spending a little time making pooch a special dog treat can be done with very little effort.
We can choose to pop into the nearest pet supply store and buy some off the shelf or we can take a little bit of extra trouble for our beloved puppies and learn how to make one from a homemade recipe.
I have owned and been around dogs all my life and yet to meet one who didn't go crazy for a dog treat, even better if you made them yourself. Is it difficult, no! Do a search on Google for "homemade dog treats" and you'll be spoilt for choice.
It's probably best just to double-check the ingredients from any online dog treat recipe that you decide to use to ensure their is nothing in it that could harm your Pet. I've never had a problem using them but always better to err on the side of caution.
I have loads of doggy treat recipes but without doubt this one is my German Shepherd Alfie's absolute favorite.
Alfie's No1 favorite - Cheesy Dog Biscuit Treats Ingredients:
* One cup rolled oats (something like Quaker) * One third (1/3) cup margarine * One cup water/boiling * Three quarters (3/4) cup corn-meal One * One tablespoon sugar * Two (2) teaspoons beef or chicken stock (instant bouillon) * Milk 1/2 cup * One (1) cup grated/shredded cheddar cheese * One (1) egg, beaten * Two to Three (2 - 3) cups whole wheat flour
Now we have the ingredients, let's get it made.
With the oven preheated at 325 degrees we move on to greasing the cookie sheets.
Put the rolled oats, margarine and boiling water into a large bowl; leave for approx 10 minutes. Mix in the corn-meal, sugar, bouillon, milk, cheese and egg. Lightly spoon the flour into your measuring cup and level off. Add the flour one cup at a time; make sure that you have mixed it well until it forms a stiff dough. Ensuring the surface has been floured start to knead in the last of the flour until the consistency of the dough is smooth and stickiness is gone. Roll or pat out the mixture until it is approx 1/2 inch thick.
Use cookie cutters in the shape of a dog-bone to cut. Put shapes on pre-greased cookie sheets approx 1 inch apart. Place the shapes into the oven at 325 degrees for maybe 35-45 mins or when they are a delicious golden brown color.
With homemade dog treat aplenty your favorite canine will be happily chomping for days to come. Are they really better than the dog treats you can buy at the pet supply store? I dunno, let your dog have the final woof!
