Interesting Darlene. Thanks!

I've been reading mysteries where the heroin is a cook of some kind. One of them I found a recipe for dog treats is by Laura Childs called Gunpowder Green. It has a recipe for some liver treats. The other book is by Diane Mott Davidson, but I can't remember which book (not the one I just read).

So if you like mysteries and dogs, maybe you would enjoy these books and the recipes.

Thanks for sharing. I'm gonna try the recipes

11 treat recipes for Christmas

Well, I guess I didn't do too well on that. Forgot the web site URL. It is now July 2018 and my computer won't pick up the internet anymore, so I can't find it and post it.

Oops. Sorry about that.

I saw a video on YouTube for dog treats called Mutter Butters.

I plan on making my first batch of dog treats this weekend. I can't wait to make my girl some treats that I know are healthy and the right size for her. Looking forward to seeing what kind of treats people suggest.

Simple, and the dog loves them. Can also add some bacon...

I made some yesterday,

Peanut butter
bananas
coconut oil
and oats

Lilo and Dixie the pug both enjoyed them

Thanks Darlene I pinned yours. We don't do grains!

I baked these but they do stink!! Lilo loved them, they contain sardines lol.

There are a few on allrecipes.com that I am wanting to try, there is a Peanut butter banana one that doesn't contain sardines.

Hmmm, I just might have to try them!

Everything is so good, you and your dog(s) can eat them hehe.

I haven't baked in ages, but this thread makes me want to get my hands into some dough.

That sounds good!

A recipe that was on one of my FB groups today.

Thanks, Dee. I'm going to have to try that.

Thanks Dee!

This was featured on the Home and Family Show this morning! I'm going to make it for Mollie to have during the holiday season...I'll make it in muffin tins so that it's portion controlled (she needs to watch her figure!) It's good enough for people to eat!

Ingredients
2 lbs Organic Ground Turkey
1 cup Cooked Quinoa (or Brown Rice)
1 Small Sweet Potato
1/2 cup fresh Cranberries
1 small zucchini
1 cup green beans
1 cup of spinach
2 Tb finely chopped parsley
2 Tb turmeric powder
1 egg
Coconut Oil
Directions

1) Cook Quinoa or Brown Rice, using 1-tablespoon coconut oil and water.

2) Using a Food Processor, puree the spinach, zucchini, green beans with 1/2 cup of water until you get a nutritious green veggie mush. Set aside.

3) Using a large bowl, add the organic ground turkey along with 1 cup of cooked quinoa.

4) Add 2 tablespoons finely chopped parsley, along with 2 tablespoons turmeric powder for seasoning.

5) Crack an egg into bowl, and pour in your green veggie mash.

6) Begin mixing with a wooden spoon; use your hands to evenly combine all ingredients.

7) Cut a small sweet potato into cubes, and add to mixture.

8) Add 1/2 cup fresh washed cranberries, either into the mixture, or save for decoration on top.

9) Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

10) Once mixture is combined, use coconut oil to coat a loaf pan, muffin tins, a bone shaped pan or whatever you'd like to use.

11) Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes, checking the inside to make sure it is cooked through.

12) Cool at room temperature for approx. 1 hour, then promptly refrigerate, freeze, or serve.

What happened to Baby Star?

These are all great....now I just need to try em' out! Baby Star also very recently had stitches and the peanut butter dough would have been a great idea! Thanks everyone!
XOXO,
Jojo

Thanks for those recipes. I could have used the pill pockets the last week. Had to give Cassie huge pills for a reaction to stitches. Took two pill pockets per pill. Those homemade ones I could have just wrapped and not had to stick two together.

Great idea Molly!

homemade pill pockets:

mix peanut butter with flour to make dough. keep in fridge and pinch off a piece to wrap around pills as needed.

you could probably leave out the sugar. I mix stuff like peanut butter, whole wheat flour, oats, beef broth, egg, until it resembles still dough, and then bake them. dogs don't miss the sugar!

Before I knew about some of the things that were toxic to dogs, mine ate them. Doxie was very fond of chocolate and would steal candy all the time. Blue and Venture ate the grapes when I was picking them one year. It was later that year or maybe the next year that I found out they can kill a dog. Gosh, by that point I had had dogs for over 40 years and hadn't ever heard they can't have grapes. I don't think they ever stole any of the grapes after that. Cassie likes the wild plums that fall and they are right there with the grapes, so she makes me nervous. I need something to fence off that area.

Sometimes I can't believe the stuff she'll eat! No matter when I chop or slice onions she's right there...and that's something dogs should NOT have. We have to guard our coffee cups too because she LOVES coffee! (also not good...and you don't want a pup hopped up on caffeine!) Her sister loves BEER! She doesn't get it, but she tries! I don't how they develop a "taste" for something they don't get...although I know for a fact that both Mollie and Darby have had a slurp or two before they were caught. She also wants to eat grapes...I don't know WHY she wants all the stuff she can't have. She's worse than a person. (Actually, we believe she thinks she IS a person...so funny!)

Mollie sounds like the Dachshund I had growing up. I don't think there was anything she didn't like. She stole the raspberries before we ever knew there were any on the bushes. She stole Dad's tomatoes just when they were ready to pick. She ate hot chili peppers and radishes. The two boys I had and their mother would eat just about any vegetable, too. Venture also stole my apple juice.

Now Cassie doesn't want any vegetables but sweet potato or pumpkin and potatoes. She is definitely carnivorous.

Mollie LOVES frozen or fresh green beans! She absolutely will not eat cooked green beans, though. My mom always keeps "Mollie Beans" in her freezer, and Mollie lets her know when she wants those beans. She's very vocal and makes really funny growly sounds in her throat while she sits by the freezer door. Some Red and Whites almost "talk" to you, and Mollie has that trait from her dam. Not all of her litter mates "talk", but Mollie and her sister Darby do!

She also loves carrots, raw sweet potatoes, broccoli, melon, strawberries, bananas, grapefruit, sweet peppers and apples. She needs to lose a few pounds, so she gets more veggie treats.

In addition to peanut butter (which causes instant drooling and begging as soon as she gets a whiff), she loves pumpkin. Canned or cooked pumpkin is really good for dogs and they usually love it. Just be sure not to give your pup pumpkin pie filling, it has to be plain canned or pureed pumpkin.

My Hound has food allergies. We have a very simple Peanut Butter cookie mix.
1 Cup Peanut Butter
1 Cup Sugar
1 Egg

Bake at 375 for 9 mins.

I'm always looking for dog treats for my dog. He's allergic to Beef and is not supposed to have anything with dyes or artifical stuff in it. He does love his peanut butter too.

Hi, I am new to the group. We now have 2 boxers, a little white one with two small brindle spots and a brindle. Our senior that we rescued a year ago this last Nov. has crossed over the bridge, He was a fawn. Shiloh our white kid is our ring tailed tooter in the terrible two's with ADHD on the side and he is 5 1/2 yrs old. Our brindle is a nice little lady who is timid and she is 7 1/2 yrs old.

Our kids love to eat huckleberries right off the bush when we go out in the woods to pick. Once in a while Sophie still tries to get her head in your bucket! lol

Always looking for good recipes without grains.

HICKO

I have a Border Collie Austrailian Shepard mix.

Venture always loved carrots, to the point he sat and asked a lady who was a complete stranger to him for the ones she was cutting up for her horse. She told him he didn't like those but he got a couple from her. He was fear aggressive and normally would not have allowed the lady to get near him.

I know - every time Sadie sees me eating baby carrots I have to give her one or two. She just loves them!

Fresh Blueberries - dogs are rather like kids - if they see mom eating it their interested. My guy now LOVES to do tricks for a blueberry. (sorry the frozen ones he turns his nose up at, even kids are pick eaters)

Thanks again for the easy dog treat recipe, LESLIEKEAR
I finally got around to making some and Sadie just loves them

What type of dog do you have Darlene?

My dog is spoiled. My mother in law even brings him treats.
I was saying i needed to learn to make him treats too.

I used to freeze carrots. Our dog loved carrots. She could get them between her paws, they lasted longer than room temp ones and hey are very healthy.

That sounds easy and I know our dogs would love them. Sadie sits at my feet giving me the puppy eyes whenever I eat peanut butter or yogurt.

Thank you. That would be perfect here in the summer, as we get over 100 degrees.

A really easy treat to make up is using 1 single serving container of lite vanilla greek yogurt ,mix in 1-1.5 tablespoons of peanut butter. Divide this mixture into 4 squares of ice cube tray or mini paper cupcake liners and freeze up. Our dog loves these and it is healthier for them versus the Frosty Paws found at the grocery store!

Thanks Fancyqtr - They look very interesting. Now to find time to bake!

I don't know if these have been on here before, but they were linked on my FB page and I thought some might find something on them.

This is actually a recipe to put in with kibble. I got it from one of my spark friends.

Salmon loaf recipe -
large quantity. Makes at least three long tupperware containers. Freezes very well.
Dump all ingredients into the dishpan. I mix it with my hands. (yeah, ick)
Three cans canned salmon - undrained - (Three pounds of ground turkey can be substituted if desired)
a dozen eggs - put them in the blender, shell and all. Blend until shells are powdered
one cup of olive oil
One large box of quick oatmeal
two large cans of packed pumpkin
Molasses - about half a cup
Mix it all up - should be the consistency of meatloaf once chilled - slices well. IF too dry, add a little water. Too wet, add more oatmeal.
Pack it all into the flat tupperware containers - or whatever you have - and you are done.
Basically, ingredients can be anything. Just don't cook the meat because cooking changes the properties of the meat and makes it harder to digest.
I use the salmon loaf for dogs who are having a very bad time keeping weight or who are ill. Hardly any dog can turn down salmon.
slice or spoon out to serve - top with plain yogurt if extra probiotics are needed. Serving size is about twice the size of a deck of cards for a 25 pound cocker.
I'm use kefir rather than yogurt, make it myself and all dogs get that every day. Tastes like buttermilk but is better for the gut than yogurt.
