No bake/ No cook dog treats! (:?

Question

It's my chihuahua / jack russell's 4th birthday on sunday (29th) and I want to make him a special homemade no bake/ no cook dog treats. I can't really use the stove, but if I need some boiling water, thats fine! Microwave is also fine. I'm looking for recipes that don't include meat, milk, or eggs. He's so cute!! I absolutely adore him, I want to make him the best dog treats. I used to make him a special treat that had all of his treats in one, and some of his food, and some of his toothpaste, along with carrots. I stopped doing that because I thought it was too much treats, I used to give him it once a week. Do you think I should give him that again? I really love him and I want to give him the best treat ever! Thanks a lot!!

Oh, and if you can, please give me some ideas on what to do for his birthday. Thanks ! (:

Answer 1

No Bake Peanut Butter Oat Dog Treats



¾ cup peanut butter

1 ¼ cup oats

¼ teaspoon cinnamon

¼ cup water



>>Mix peanut butter, cinnamon and water together vigorously until ingredients are combined. Add extra water if necessary (mixture should be thick).

>>Slowly stir in the oats, 1/4 cup at a time, mashing them into the mixture.

>>Scoop out the balls using a fruit scooper or your hands to form 1 inch round treats.

>>Place on cookie sheet lined with parchment paper and refrigerate for 1-3 hours.



My dogs love these and i make them to bring to dog shows for the dogs to eat after they get out of the ring. They stay good in the freezer for 1-2 months and if kept refrigerated they stay for about 2 weeks.



I have an older dog now and shes on medications, i use these as pill capsules to put her meds into to give them to her, she doesnt even realize what was inside.



hope you like it, best of luck!





Response: it makes about 24 if you make small balls. They stay pretty solid, i dont think i add as much water as they say to, so i would add it slow and see how it looks.

I've never seen a recipe for edible frosting, though I have a great recipe for dog treats too. Here are my thoughts on potential frostings you could create a recipe for: 1) Is this for consumption immediately or just in the short term. If it's longer term, you don't want a frosting that is too wet b/c it will spoil. Part of what makes the treats last so long is how dried out you get them. 2) Keep the materials to things that are healthful for dogs to eat: so not too much in the way of carbs, which we like to eat. 3) Pick one flavor to completment your treats and stick with it, that is something peanutbutter-based or maybe chicken-based. When we boil down a chicken for broth, we do get that really good gelatinous goop. I bet that could be blended with thickeners when warm and cool to a harder frosting (but this would have to be eaten quickly). 4) Coloring with vegetables. OMG, my dog loves cooked beets. Who would have known? But if I wanted to make him something red, I would totally use beet juice or boiled beet water to dye it red! That could be really fun if you are making a chicken-gelatin frosting for a brown-colored biscuit! Good luck with this project!

Training your dog will be a huge part of your interaction with him for the first few months. Learn here https://tr.im/0U29A

This includes housetraining, leash training, obedience training, socialization, and problem solving. In addition to providing your dog with needed skills, this time will also be a great opportunity for you to bond with him. Take the time to really get to know your pet while training him and a loving relationship will easily develop.

The dog would be perfectly happy if you gave it a scoop of peanut butter or yogurt. It doesn't give a crap. Many pet stores have already baked cookies too...
