Tuesday Treat: Peanut Butter Dog Treats

Since I got my new puppy, I decided to check out some homemade dog treats. Do you have a puppy? Check it out! They will love you for it! I made these yesterday and holy crow do our little girls love these.

Ingredients:
1.5 cups whole wheat flour
1.5 cups white flour
1.5 cups peanut butter
1 cup water
2 tablespoons oil

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Combine oil, peanut butter, and water. Add flour one cup at a time to form a dough. Knead the dough into a firm ball and roll to 1/4 inch thickness.
  3. Cut into 3-4 inch pieces. Place the pieces onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Makes about 2.5 dozen cookies.
Ideas:
  • Use all natural or organic peanut butter to lower the salt and sugar amount and to avoid preservatives.
  • Make this ahead of time and freeze it to keep a fresh supply handy for your doggies.
  • As with all treats, feed in moderation. There is such a thing as too much of a good thing.

Love is love, no matter the back story. <3 DS

Hey those are lovely and it`s great that everybody can make a simple dog biscuit for their dog. I started a Dog business some time ago now from my previous career in catering and then developing a bone disease. I became a little concerned about the number of chemicals, colours, allergies, banned ingredients, harmful ingredients and sugars in Dog treats (as I have my own dog) as well as the so called 2human grade ingredients". I have a site I hope you can all visit should you get the chance. Please have a good look around and please leave comments as most people are shy! :) http://www.thedoggydeli.blogspot.com take care xx
