Homemade Dog Treats

A few years ago, when Hunter, our lab, was our only child, I used to make him home made treats.  I decided to get Grant to help me bake Hunter some bones today!  For those of you who don't know, Grant, LOVES dogs and all things pertaining to them.  My parents brought him some Scooby snacks to church yesterday.  (They are graham cracker cookies in the shape of dog bones)  He loved them, but Erin was disgusted.  She kept looking at him with a look of disgust repeatedly saying, "Yuck!"  I guess she thought they were real.  She wouldn't even give them a try.

For Peanut Butter Puppy Poppers you need:

 

• 2 cups whole wheat flour
• 1tbs baking powder
• 1 cup peanut butter
• 1 cup milk

Mix the flour and baking powder.  Add peanut butter and milk to form a dough.  Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface.  Then roll dough to about 1/4 inch thick.  Then use a cookie cutter to cut your treats!  Bake on a greased baking sheet at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.  Cool and let your pup enjoy!  (in moderation, of course!)

Erin is feeling a little under the weather again!  Poor girl is sick more than any child I know!  She sat out on the bone baking process.  (She refused to put any clothes on today, she was burning up with fever)   Grant is my right hand man in the kitchen.  I enjoy letting him help me cook and bake.  It makes for some good bonding time!

Hunter was happy that we made him some treats!
