    Dog Treat Recipe

    Here is one we did for our pup Merlin

    2 1/4 cups whole wheat flour
    1 1/2 Cups all-purpous flour
    1 1/2 cups corn meal
    3/4 cup uncooked regular oats
    1/3 cup instant non fat dry milk powder
    1 table spoon garlic powder
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1 3/4 cups beef broth
    1/2 cup vegetable oil
    2 large eggs
    1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce

    Preheat oven to 300 F

    Combine the first 7 ingredients; make a well in the center of the ingredients.

    Whisk together broth, oil, and 1 egg; add to dry ingredients, stirring until a soft dough forms. (from experience its a pretty tough dough to knead)

    Roll dough to 1/2 inch thichness on a lightly floured surface. Cut with any cookie cutter you like depending on dog size, and place on ungreased baking sheets.

    Whisk together remainding egg and worcestershire sauce, brush on cookies.

    Position oven racks to divide oven into thirds. Bake at 300 F for 2 hours, placing a baking sheet on each rack. Turn oven off, and let cookies stay in oven with door closed for 2 more hours.

    This will make a bunch of small cookies.

    Enjoy

    I have a dog treat recipe book (Dog Biscuit Recipes - Mary MacPherson). My friend (veegan on PT) was asking me for some of the recipes the other day, instead of typing them all out I just scanned them out of the book. So here they are:

    RubyMutt: I have that same book because I make doggie treats to sell for the Humane Society.

    The Over the Rainbow Treats and the Cheese ones are the most popular and the dogs "snap" them up.

    I have another recipe for beef liver treats. The method looks pretty harsh and the smell almost turned me into a vegetarian, but the dogs just can't get enough of them.

    Beef Liver Treats

    1 1/2 lbs beef liver
    3 cups water
    2 1/4 cups toasted wheat germ
    2 1/4 cups whole wheat flour

    Put liver and water into a pot and bring to a boil. Boil for about 10 mins until all pink is gone. Strain, reserving the liquid, and dice liver into small pieces and put in the food processor. Whirl, adding the reserved liquid until it is smooth and pureed. (Hungry yet??? )

    If untoasted, put wheat germ into a dry pot over high heat and stir constantly until lighty browned, then put it into a large bowl.
    Add the disgusting looking pureed liver and about 2 cups flour. Stir until well moistened.

    Now comes the fun stuff. Add a bit more flour and get both hands in the bowl and mix it until it resembles bread dough, adding more flour if needed.

    Turn out on to a floured board and knead for about 5 min. Roll out to 1/2 inch and cut out with your choice of cutters. Place on lightly greased pan (I use Pam for this) and bake at 350 for about 10 min. Then turn them over and bake for another 10 min. If they don't seem cooked enough, then turn the oven off and leave in there for a couple of hours.

    Good luck.

    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    Here are a few I have:

    Pumpkin squares

    6 cups oats

    2 cups whole wheat flour

    egg replacer equivalent to 4 eggs (or four eggs)

    1/3 cup vegetable oil

    3/4 cup molasses

    1 cup rice milk

    1 can pumpkin

    1.Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl.

    2.Pat into a greased jelly-roll pan and bake at 325 degrees for approximately 1 hour.

    3.Cut into squares



    1 lb salmon

    1/4 C Olive Oil

    1/4 C Water

    1/4 C uncooked rice (can be ommitted if using at least 2T rice flour)

    3 Eggs (including the shells)

    1/4 C Dried leafy green vegetable (Kale, spinach, etc)

    1 t Honey, Molasses, or Brown Sugar

    1/4 C Grated carrot (not shredded)

    1/4 C Rolled Oats OR Wheat Germ

    1 T Brewer's Yeast

    2-4 C Flour

    1 T Olive Oil (to grease cookie sheet)


    NOTE: Rice flour is best, as it is easier to digest, soy flour has more protein, all-purpose flour is not as healthy, but will do.

    Using two knives, cut salmon (as you would cut fat into flour) until it is finely chopped.

    Heat olive oil in large skillet on medium.

    Add Brewers yeast and cook 2 minutes, stirring constantly.

    Add salmon to skillet, and cook well, crumbling it as you would ground beef.

    When fully cooked, add 1/4 C water, and bring to boil, stirring constantly.

    Reduce heat. Add rice, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes.

    Remove from heat, and pour mixture into large mixing bowl.

    Beat on low with electric mixer until mixture is well mixed and ground together.

    Add eggs to mixture, placing shells and kale in a separate bowl.

    Grind shells & greens as fine as possible (powdered), add to mixture, and beat well.

    Add carrot, wheat germ, yeast, and 1/2 Cup Flour. Beat thoroughly.

    Add enough flour to make a stiff dough. Shape into bite-size pieces.

    Bake at 350 for 20-45 minutes, depending on size of pieces.

    Turn oven down to 200 and bake another hour. Cool.

    Store in air-tight container

    Baby food bicuits

    3 jars baby food -- (2 1/2 oz. each), 1/4 cup Dry milk, powder 1/4 cup Wheat germ, (cream of wheat can be substituted for wheat germ), Combine ingredients in bowl and mix well. Roll into small balls and place on well-greased cookie sheet. Flatten slightly with a fork. Bake in preheated 350F. oven for 15 minutes until brown. Cool on wire racks and STORE IN REFRIGERATOR. Also freezes well. *Variation: substitute cream of wheat for wheat germ and then used tablespoon to make cookie sized drops on plate. Microwave for 4 minutes on Medium-High. Suggest keeping an eye on them in microwave and perhaps start out for only 3 1/2 minutes. They do come out soft. Tester's note: Definitely something to howl about! Cookies are soft and chewy (good for older pets who have lost a few teeth). And they can be whipped up in no time. [/color]

    Champion Cheese & Veggies Chews

    1/2 cup grated cheese, room temperature
    3 tbsp. veg. oil
    3 tsp. applesauce
    1/2 cup cooked veggies
    1 cup whole wheat flour
    non-fat milk

    Mix cheese, oil and applesauce together. Add veggies, and flour. Combine thoroughly. Add just enough milk to help form a ball. Cover and chill for one hour. Roll onto a floured surface and cut into shapes. Bake in a preheated 375 degree oven for 15 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool.
    Yield: 12 - 15 chews

    Broth cookies

    Firstly take 3 1/2 cups whole wheat flour Then you'll need 3 cups rolled oats 1/2 cup spring water A dab of olive oil two eggs and finally 1 1/2 cups broth.

    potatos, etc...

    Mix all ingredients well. Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto a greased cookie sheet. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for about 12 minutes, or until lightly browned and firm. Cool. Store in the fridge, or freeze.

    Preheat oven to 325F/160C. Mix dry, then wet ingredients until lumpy. Add water, one teaspoon at a time as needed. Knead by hand on table until mixed thoroughly. Form into logs approximately 2" - 2 1/2" high. Flatten so that log is 6" - 7" wide by 1" high. Place on non-stick baking sheets. Bake approximately 30 - 40 minutes. Remove and cool for 10 minutes. Slice into 1/2" - 3/4" slices. Place on baking sheets and bake for about 20 minutes or until golden brown. Cool.


    Tuna bicuits

    1 cup flour

Pulse til mixture forms a ball, Pulse to knead for 2-3 minutes. Turn out to floured board , knead if needed to soft dough. Roll out to a 1/8"-1/4" thickness. Cut into desired shapes. Bake on lightly greased cookie sheet , at 350 for 20-25 minutes. Cool completely.


    TAILWAGGERS
    Ingredients:
    2 1/2 C Flour (I use Whole Wheat
    1 C. Powdered Dry Milk
    1/4 C. plus 1 Tbl. Shortening or Bacon Fat
    1 Egg

    Pre-heat oven to 350. Grease cookie sheets Mix flour, dry milk, salt & shortening until mixture resembles corn meal. Beat egg and brown sugar together and add to dry mixture. Add cooled broth and the cheese and bacon (orcc other special scraps) and mix well. Knead until smooth andcc pliable, adding flour if needed. Roll dough to 1/2 inch thick andcc cut with cookie cutter. Bake 25-30 minutes until well browned, almost burned. To really make them crunchy, after they're baked, tturn off the oven and leave them in there

    I tried the baby food buscuits and the dogs helped make them.They licked everything as I was finished with it and of course tasted at the end.I should say 2 helped make Mojo and Dakota.I gave Byakko a dentabone to keep her busy because she was in her crate(she is food aggresive a bit especially with really yummy treats) and only twenty pounds maybe if lucky to their 60 lbs and 85 lbs.She still cried to help so I had to let her play outside in the snow-tied out -fenced yard-and Byakko got first treats.Martini was upstairs asleep and never made a peep.The door may have been shut so she may not have smelled it but I can't imagine.Anyway everyone loved them.They didn't screach as much as the tuna brownies but they never left my side and certainly weren't going to bed without one.They are still looking for crumbs but settleing down for bed now.All in all a wonderful snowy day treat.I will definetly be making them again and boy were they simple and quick and loved.I made them both ways in the oven and microwave.I couldn't really roll them though they didn't make a dough (to moist).I wondered should I drain the baby food or use some flour or more of something?I used ham in the oven and chicken babyfood in the microwave.Microwave seemed a little rubbery to me.Did I cook them to long or not enough?I did 3 1/2 mins but then took a couple mins to get off plate of course both came out at the same time.Thanks for the recipe,the furbabies send licks and thanks too.
