I made Garrett some homemade treats last week!
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F.
Ingredients:
1 1/3 cup zucchini, grated finely
1 egg
1 1/3 cup cooked brown rice
3/4 cup cream cheese
Up to 2 cups whole wheat flour
Mix the zucchinni, egg, cream cheese, and rice together. Then add 1 cup of flour and stir together. Add more flour, little bit at a time, until your mixture loses some of it's stickiness. Cover your hands in whole wheat flour and form little treat balls. Place your treats on a cookie sheet and bake for 40 minutes. Turn off the oven after 40 minutes and let your treats dry out overnight in the oven. I pulled a treat out after 40 minutes, let it cool, and gave it to Mister G.
Mister G says,
"Oh yeah! That's the good stuff!" The next day I forgot about the treats and preheated my oven for another recipe. The treats dried into extra crunchy treats and I think G likes them better with the extra crunch! You might want to consider baking your treats a little on the second day!
Disclaimer: Make sure your dog can eat wheat before you make these treats! Some dogs are wheat sensitive so ask your vet if you're unsure! I've been pretty generous with the treats lately-- so Mister G has been receiving less of his regular food at meal time! Don't let your dog get fat!
