How to Help Your Dogs Health Using A Good Diet by John Wilson
One of the keys to keeping a happy and healthy dog is to provide it with good healthy food and the more natural the better. This has become even more relevant in recent months as we have found out that some manufactured dog foods can even contain such substances as melamine.
If you want complete control over what your dog is eating, then why not make your own dog food. In most cases its even easier than cooking with a human recipe.
I have included a couple of sample recipes for dog treats below to get you started. They are easy to make and great sources of nutrition for your pet.
Classic Dog Bones
1 c Beef, chicken, or vegetable -stock
1 c Bread or all-purpose flour
1 c Whole wheat or rye (or other -dark) flour
1 c Bulgar wheat
1/4 c Non-fat dry milk powder
1/2 ts Salt
1 1/2 ts Yeast
Use machine mixer on dough cycle to combine ingredients. Roll dough to 1/4″ thickness. Cut with cookie cutters or knife. Place on baking sheets sprinkled with cornmeal. Cover with clean kitchen towels and let rise in warm place about 45 minutes. Bake at 325-degrees for 45 minutes. When all are baked, turn off oven and return all cookies to cooling oven overnight to harden. Store in airtight container.
(Using a 3.5″ bone shaped cutter, I get about 30-35 cookies from this recipe.)
Peanut Butter Treats
·2 1/4 cups whole wheat flour
·3/4 cup all purpose flour
·1 1/4 Tbsp baking powder
·1 1/4 cup peanut butter
·1 cup soy milk
Combine flour and baking powder in a large bowl. Combine milk and peanut butter in a separate bowl and mix until smooth. Gradually stir peanut butter mixture into flour in the larger bowl. Knead dough by-hand and roll-out on floured surface to desired thickness. Cut-out treats. Place aluminum foil on cookie sheet and bake 15 minutes at 400o. Cool before storing. Note: cooking time may vary depending upon thickness.
Microwave Doggie Treats
·2 Cups Whole wheat flour
·1 Tbsp Dry Oatmeal
·1 Egg; lightly beaten
·1 tsp Garlic powder
·2/3 Cups chicken broth
Place flour in a bowl, add egg and broth, mix well.
Blend in oatmeal and garlic powder. Roll dough into a ball, roll out on a lightly floured surface to 1/2″ thick. Cut with small doughnut cutters. Re-roll scraps and repeat. Arrange on a shallow baking dish or on a sheet or parchment paper in a single layer. Cook on HIGH 10 minutes or until firm. Let cool until hardened. Store in covered container in refrigerator.
Your dog will love these.
