Want to know how to literally get your dog eating out of the palm of your hand? The secret is scrumptious homemade dog biscuits made with careful preparation and love. If you’re thinking this is way too much trouble to bother making, think again. With these easy to follow dog food recipes, you will be a doggie connoisseur before you can say, “Good boy!”

I don’t know if you know this but pooches just love the taste of peanut butter. I have often been bewildered with the many intricacies of the baking world but this recipe is fool proof, even for me. Combine 1 cup of whole wheat flour, 1 cup of all purpose flour, 1 cup milk, 2 tablespoons of honey and 2 tablespoons of oil with 1 cup of smooth and creamy peanut butter. Blend the mixture well and scoop into bite sized treats onto cookie sheets. Bake them for 20 minutes in 350 F and you have yourself the keys to Fido’s heart.

Anyone up for delectable oatmeal chews? Take 1 cup of whole wheat flour, 1 tsp baking soda, 3 cups oatmeal, 2 tablespoons honey and mix it all together. Fold in 2 egg yolks and 1 cup of cold water to bind it all together. Ensure the smooth consistency of the batter. Bake this for 15 minutes in a 350 F temperature. Once these chews are sufficiently cooled; cut into bite size pieces for your dog’s snacking pleasure.

For older dogs with a less than sturdy set of teeth, you can serve them these soft cookies as snacks. In a bowl, mix 1 cup dry milk powder, 1 cup wheat germ and 2 1 oz jars of flavored baby food thoroughly. Roll into coin sized mounds and bake in a pre heated oven for 15 minutes at 350 F. After cooling, you can serve as snack or refrigerate for future use.

Some cringe when we have live ron our dinner plate but this is actually a great treat for canines. It’s economical and really easy to make. All you need to do is to simply combine 1 lb liver (chopped and pureed) with 2 cups cornmeal, 1 cup of flour and 1/3 teaspoon of salt. Roll out onto a greased cookie sheet and bake for 20 minutes in 350 F. When done and sufficiently cooled, cut in small squares for quick snacking.

If you know how to bake, you can switch up some ingredients to make it interesting for your pet. Use apple, carrots, parsley or other pieces of meat. Make sure when you come up with your own dog food recipes that you research on the food that are harmful to canines. Some of these include chocolate, onion, grapes and most nuts. Too much liver is also harmful to them.

Now that you have read and are armed with these delicious doggie treats, commence the baking! Never was there a man’s best friend luckier than your Fido today.
