I don?t know if you know this but pooches just love the taste of peanut butter. I have often been bewildered with the many intricacies of the baking world but this recipe is fool proof?even for me. Combine 1 ? cup of whole wheat flour, 1 ? cup of all purpose flour, I cup milk, 2Tbsps of honey and 2 Tbsps of oil with ? cup of smooth and creamy peanut butter. Blend the mixture well and scoop into bite sized treats onto cookie sheets. Bake them for 20 minutes in 350?F and you have yourself the keys to Fido?s heart.

How about some delicious oatmeal chews? Combine ? cup of whole wheat flour, 1 teaspoon of baking soda and 3 cups of oatmeal and 2 Tbsps of honey. Add in 2 egg yolks and a cup of cold water, making sure the batter is smooth without any lumps in it. Bake for 15 minutes in 350?F. Cool the treats and cut into cookie sizes you can bag and feed your pet anytime.

Let us not forget our more aged dogs of course. As they get older their teeth become weaker and they will need soft food. This particular treat is chewable and soft, perfect for them. Combine ? cup dry milk powder, ? cup wheat germ, and 2 ? oz jars of beef or chicken flavored baby food. Knead them and form into little balls. Bake them for 15 minutes at 350?F until done.

We cringe when we have liver in our dinner plate but this is actually a great treat for canines. It?s economical and really easy to make. All you need to do is to simply combine 1 lb liver (chopped and pureed) with 2 cups cornmeal, 1 cup of flour and 1/3 teaspoon of salt. Roll out onto a greased cookie sheet and bake for 20 minutes in 350?F. When done and sufficiently cooled, cut in small squares for quick snacking.

If you are familiar with baking, feel free to change the ingredients to those that you know will appeal to your dog better. How about using apples, carrots and parsley for healthier options? Do the necessary research before coming up with your own dog food recipes though there are many ingredients that are harmful to canines when ingested. Examples of these are chocolate, onions, grapes and nuts.

Great homemade dog biscuits are not as complicated as you thought was it? It?s usually just putting together some ingredients and baking them until fit to be eaten. Now you are armed with several mouth watering doggie treats?there is no excuse not to have a loving and happy pet waiting to welcome you home. - 29895
