Dog Food Recipe No 4 

Peanut Butter Cookies

Dogs love peanut butter, and these cookies are a great way to sneak some fish oil into your dog’s diet. Fish oil improves your dog’s coat, making it shiny, soft, and healthier.

Look for organic peanut butter at your grocery store. Many commercial brands of peanut butter have unhealthy hydrogenated oils and additives. Better yet, make your own peanut butter using raw peanuts and peanut oil, and processing the mixture in your food processor.

Ingredients

·         2 cups of flour (white or wheat, if your pup has no wheat allergies)

·         1 cup of rolled oats

·         1/3 cup of smooth peanut butter

·         1 tablespoon of honey

·         1/2 tablespoon of fish oil

·         1 1/2 cups of water

Directions

1.    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

2.    Mix the flour and oats together in a large mixing bowl. Pour in one cup of water and blend until smooth. Add in the peanut butter, honey, and fish oil and mix until all the ingredients are well blended.

3.    Slowly add the water until the mixture has a thick and doughy consistency.

4.    Lightly flour a cooking surface. Roll the dough onto the cooking surface to create a 1/4 inch thick sheet.

5.    Use a cookie cutter to create shapes. Place the cookies onto a baking sheet and bake for 40 minutes.

6.    Allow to cool completely before feeding.

Pro Tip: If the dough is too sticky to roll, slowly pad more flour onto the dough ball.

 Chicken Jerky

I give my pup these chicken jerky treats as an alternative to the store-bought raw hides. The jerky is tough and chewy, so it keeps my dog occupied for a while, and the chicken has a good amount of protein, which is good for a dog’s muscle structure.

Ingredients

·         2 to 4 chicken breasts

Directions

1.    Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Fahrenheit.

2.    Remove any excess fat from the chicken. Turn the chicken breast on its side and use a paring knife to slice the chicken breast into 1/8 inch thick strips.

3.    Set the strips on a baking sheet. Bake for 2 hours.

4.    Check the chicken before removing from the oven. It should be dry and hard, not soft or chewy. Allow the chicken to cool completely before serving.

5.    Store the jerky in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two weeks.

Pro Tip: You can substitute sweet potatoes for the chicken in this recipe. Sweet potatoes make a healthy, vegetarian alternative.

Frozen Yogurt Pops for Dogs

If your dog loves to chase ice cubes around the kitchen, then he’ll love these frozen treats. They’re made from human grade ingredients and include fruit juice and carrots, which give your pup an added vitamin boost. Yogurt has calcium and protein, and can help your dog digest food.

Note that this recipe calls for non-fat yogurt, which is a much healthier alternative to other types of yogurt, especially if your dog is overweight.

Ingredients

·         6 oz. container of plain, non-fat frozen yogurt

·         1 cup of no-sugar added fruit juice

·         1/2 cup of carrots, minced

Directions

1.    Add the yogurt, fruit juice, and carrots into a medium-sized bowl. Stir until the ingredients are smooth and well-blended.

2.    Drop the mixture into the ice cube trays by spoonful.

3.    Freeze until the ingredients are solid.

Pro Tip: Use hard plastic trays instead of the softer rubber ones to make the treats. The treats are easier to remove from a hard tray.

Fruit and Vegetable Strips

These strips work as a cheaper alternative to the organic chewy treats sold in pet stores. They also break apart easily, so you can serve smaller pieces as training rewards. Fruits and vegetables are rich in vitamin C, which can help boost your dog’s immune system.

Ingredients

·         1 small sweet potato

·         1 medium banana

·         1 cup carrots, minced

·         1/2 cup unsweetened organic applesauce

·         2 cups of whole wheat flour (white if your dog has allergies)

·         1 cup of rolled oats

·         1/3 cup of water

Directions

1.    Cook the sweet potato in the microwave for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the insides are soft. Set aside and allow to cool.

2.    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

3.    Mash the banana and sweet potato in a large mixing bowl with a hand masher until smooth. Add in the carrots, flour, and oats. Slowly add in the applesauce and water while mixing.

4.    The ingredients will form a soft dough. Roll the dough on to a lightly floured surface until the dough is 1/8 inch thick.

5.    Cut the dough into strips.

6.    Cook on a baking sheet for 25 minutes.

7.    Store leftover strips in the fridge for up to two weeks.

Pro Tip: Do not worry about overcooking the sweet potato. Softer potatoes will mash easier.

Beef and Vegetable Balls

Some dogs prefer meaty treats over sweet ones. These treats have a hearty meat flavor and good aroma that all dogs love. When I made these, my dog stood outside the oven door, not so patiently waiting for the treats to cool.

Ingredients

·         2 6-ounce jars of organic beef and vegetable baby food

·         1 cup of whole-wheat flour (or white substitute)

·         2 cups of dry milk

·         1 cup of water

Directions

1.    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

2.    Mix all of the ingredients in a large mixing bowl.

3.    Drop the mixture onto a baking sheet in large spoonfuls.

4.    Bake for 12 to 15 minutes.

5.    Allow to the treats to cool completely. Store leftover beef and vegetable balls in the fridge for up to five days.

Pro Tip: These treats do not keep as well as others. Try cutting the recipe in half if you only have one dog.
