Dog Treats

These doggie treats are really easy to make and paw-licking good! They are bland for humans (yes, I tried them) but your dog will love them! Lets see: Dolly, how do you like these cookies?

Cookies? Where?
Oh, right here! nom nom nom
Yum!
Ahhh... This is the life!

Ingredients

1/2 cup wheat germ or coarse cornmeal
2 cups whole wheat flour or cornflour
1/2 cup brewer's yeast
1.5 cups chicken stock
3 tablespoons of olive oil

Instructions

Combine dry ingredients in a mixing bowl. Add chicken stock and oil and mix until combined. Knead dough for a couple minutes and roll it out on a lightly floured surface. Cut out desired form and transfer to baking sheets. You can decorate the cookies making indentations resembling a paw print.

You can make other fun shapes too! My dog Dolly would have liked some cat cookies, as she has chased and tried to devour several real cats. Unfortunately, we didn't have any cat cookie cutters, so she had to settle with bunnies. Dead Bunnies!

Bake in the oven at 200 ºC (400 F) until golden brown. You can spray them with chicken stock while they are cooking to give them more flavour. Let the cookies cool on a wire rack and reserve in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a month.

The good thing about these cookies is that they don't have any harmful ingredients for your dog (many recipes call for onions, garlic, sugar, etc.) Even allergic dogs can enjoy these treats if you use homemade chicken stock (just chicken and water) and substitute wheat flour and germ with cornflour and cornmeal.

Dolly and I would like to dedicate this  post to our dear friend Desi, who would have enjoyed these cookies very much.
