DOG TREATS
Submitted to r.p.d. by [email protected] (KandiAna)
1 cup cornmeal
1 cup flour (I like whole wheat)
2 lbs pureed raw liver
1 tsp garlic powder
2 raw eggs
Mix the above and bake in a 9x13 inch pan for 20 minutes at 325. If you take
them out at this point and cut them into the size you want, you can either keep
them frozen and pull them out in handfuls (they are dry and firm to the touch) or
you can then put them back in the oven for an additional 20 minutes. Just make
sure to cut them before extended cooking or you'll end up with liver bricks :).

CANINE BONES FOR XMAS

shaped cookie cutter. Bake in 300 degree oven until bones are tinged darker
brown and feel firm to touch, about 1 hour. Cool on racks. Once cool, bones

CHEVELLE'S FAVORITE LIVER BAIT
Submitted to r.p.d. by [email protected]
1 lb. of finely ground raw liver
1 C flour
1/2 C cornmeal
1 to 3 Tbsp garlic salt.
Optional things I've added: several eggs, cottage cheese, grated cheddar
cheese or parmesan, oatmeal, other grains, grated carrots or apple, several
cloves of garlic run through the grinder in place of the garlic salt.
METHOD:
Spread on a lightly greased piece of tin foil on a cookie sheet. It is very
THICK -- like wet concrete! Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. When it is
done, peel off the tin foil, break the liver into pieces, and then freeze in
packages to fit your needs.
This bait will keep without refrigeration for at least a week if it isn't in the sun
or extreme heat; it breaks into tiny pieces using only your fingernails; it doesn't
go mushy; and dogs will do just about ANYTHING for just a crumb of it! It will
keep for several weeks in the refrigerator; it can be FROZEN AND REFROZEN
numerous times, and it thaws in less than 5 minutes! To make a crunchy bait,
bake until it looks like a biscuit. Freeze unused portions in sealed bags.

NATURAL FOOD
1-2 cups rolled oats
1/4-3/4 lb of raw organ meat
1 tblsp honey
1 tblsp rosemary powder
1 tsp bran
1 tsp wheat germ
1 tsp cod liver oil
1 tsp cold pressed safflower oil
1 teaspoon bone meal powder
1 tsp angivida yeast
1 tsp kelp powder
1 tsp apple cider vinegar
1/4 tsp of Vitamin c powder
1 vitamin capsule of Biotin
1 vitamin capsule of Vitamin E
handful of alfalfa leaves
1 heaping tablespoon of veggie mix
Veggie Mix:
6-8 carrots
1/4 bag of spinach
6-10 garlic individual cloves
1 container alfalfa sprouts
Finely puree in a food processor. This mixture keeps well up to 2 weeks.
Add raw meat; again the amount of meat will depend on the dog. Add all ingredients; mix well.
This recipe is to be daily 2x. It seems like alot of work but I prepare the food 2 weeks in advance using Ziploc bags. I used to be an
avid commercial food user but I've been cured!! The dogs' all Rotties have nicer coats, smell better, no fleas, love their food and are
not finicky eaters as before. It takes a little longer daily but well worth it!

KATIE'S NATURAL FOOD
A bit about the following recipe...Katie is a friend of the author with two very gorgeous and healthy German Shepherds. Katie follows
the idea that your dog's diet should be composed of about 30% fresh and raw (i.e., unprocessed) foods because processed food has
had the enzymes and micro-nutrients cooked out. Katie cooks this up about once a month.
8 cups oats
2 cups brown rice
6 Cups barley
2 lbs. carrots finely grated
3-4 bunches broccoli - grate stems, chop flowerets
6 zucchini grated or 1 lb. green beans chopped
1/2 bunch parsley, chopped
4-5 cloves garlic, minced
Use 8 quart stock pots. Cook oats. In another pot, cook brown rice and barley. Cool (to save time, cook in evening and cool
overnight). Next day: Cut vegetables - use food processor. Using rubber gloves, combine all ingredients in a 25 quart stock pot.
Shape into balls about 1/4 lb. each. Wrap and freeze.
This recipe can be easily scaled down for smaller batches.
HOME COOKING
This is a bulk recipe for those with more than one dog who want to feed well balanced home cooked food.
approx. 5 lbs of ground beef/turkey or chicken
3/4 cup canola oil
4-5 cloves garlic
32 cups water
8-10 cups processed veggies (various)
(carrots, celery, broccoli, cauliflower, bean sprouts, potatoes, sweet potatoes, red peppers, spinach, beets, lettuce,
tomatoes, etc.)
NO ONIONS (not good for dogs)
2-3 cans kidney beans
1/2 molasses (optional)
42-45 oz oatmeal (quick cooking oats)
eggs can be added to boost protein
In a large 24qt pot brown ground meat, add canola oil and garlic. When well cooked, add water. Bring to boil, then add veggies that
have been processed, (frozen or canned veggies will work too). I use dried kidney beans and soak them the night before preparing a
batch of food. While I am cooking the meat I have the beans in another pot cooking them. Once cooked, they are added to the above
mixture. Next, the oatmeal is added. Frequent stirring is necessary at this point as the mixture will stick. Remove from heat, cool
and put into containers. The above mixture feeds 3 Boxers for 1 week. I occasionally add pumpernickell bread and some times
substitute brown rice for some of the oatmeal. This recipe is very flexible. I also add a mixture called Healthy powder to each meal. I
feed twice daily and add 1 tsp of healthy powder to each meal for each dog.

DOGGIE GRAVY FOR DRY FOOD
Submitted by John Bateman
1 Boneless/skinless Chicken Breast
4 Cups Water
1 Cup Flour
2 Whole Eggs
(all items approx.)
Boil chicken breast for about 1/2 an hour, remove to cool. Add flour to chicken water. Beat out lumps. Add pre-beaten eggs. Cook
on low heat until it's done thickening. Pulverise chicken in food processor. Add to flour/egg gravy. May need to add more water.
Unfortunately it won't freeze. But using a few tablespoons daily, it should be used up before it sours.

HOMEMADE FROSTY PAWS
32 oz. vanilla yogurt
1 mashed banana or one large jar of baby fruit
2 Tblsp. peanut butter
2 Tblsp. honey
Blend all together and freeze in either 3 oz. paper cups or ice cube trays. Microwave just a few seconds before serving.
I also make this with baby meat instead of the fruit and peanut butter and the dogs REALLY like this version , although I'm not so sure I want to taste
it.

FROZEN RICE MILK TREATS
(courtesy Plump Violet's Cookies)
2 cooked chicken thighs (bones removed, gristle okay)
1 cup cooked rice
2 cooked carrots
1/2 cup cooked green veggie (we like zucchini)
chicken broth to get consistency you want (about 1/2 cup)
You can cook everything together and use the cooking broth.
Throw all the solids in the blender with about 1/2 cup of chicken broth and
blend. Add more broth if necessary to blend smoothly. Blend on high for 30
seconds and distribute in glass custard cups or ice cube trays. If you have
made this thick enough (takes a strong blender) you can put a popsicle stick
in. Freeze!

ROO'S BIRTHDAY CAKE
(contributed by Sarah W.)
3 large or 6 small jars meat baby food
2 c Cream of wheat
Mix together and pour on wax paper covered
paper plate, cover with second
plate. Microwave on HIGH for 3 minutes low 6 (on my microwave. I would suggest you do it one min. at a time. It will look a little rubbery but not like a cake. The last step makes it look like a cake)..cool..store
in refrigerator.. When you're ready to serve carefully flip it over so the cake is on the counter and the plate is facing up. Take the plate off and carefully peel the wax paper off the cake. Put the cake back on the plate with the side that had the wax paper facing up. Do not peel the wax paper off before you store it in the refrigerator. The wax paper is what gives it it's cake shape.
Notes: 3 minutes for my microwave...

CANINE BONES FOR XMAS
Sunset Magazine
1 pound beef liver
2 large eggs, shells washed
1 cup low-fat cottage cheese
1 1/2 cups wheat germ
about 3 1/4 cups whole-wheat flour
Rinse liver and cut into 1-inch chunks. Put in a 2-quart pan with 1 cup water,
and bring to a boil on high heat. Reduce heat, cover and simmer gently until
liver is no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Put liver in a blender, saving the liquid
from previous step. Break in eggs, including shells. Whirl to puree, adding
reserved liquid as needed. Scrape mixture into bowl, adding remaining cooking
liquid, cottage cheese, wheat germ and 3 cups flour. Stir until evenly moistened.
Knead until dough no longer feels sticky, adding more flour as required. Roll out
dough onto a floured board until 1/2 inch thick. Cut dough with floured bone-
shaped cookie cutter. Bake in 300 degree oven until bones are tinged darker
brown and feel firm to touch, about 1 hour. Cool on racks. Once cool, bones
should be hard when pressed; if not, bake 10 minutes more at 300 degrees and
cool. (Makes about 4 1/2 dozen 3 1/2 inch long bones.)
