    Apple and Carrot homemade dog biscuits.

    I got the itch to bake something last weekend.  Dexter and Dewey were the lucky recipients of the fruits of my labor!  I whipped up some homemade dog biscuits that are low fat, chewy, and puppy-approved, although you can also get treats with dog cbd which help the dogs a lot when they suffer pain.

    Currently, there has been no formal study on how CBD affects dogs. What scientists do know is that cannabinoids interact with the endocannabinoid receptors located in the central and peripheral nervous systems, which help maintain balance in the body and keep it in a normal healthy state, you can also try the THC edibles.

    Ingredient list for homemade dog biscuits.

    Fruity Oatmeal Dog Treats

    Pin Recipe

    Ingredients

    Scale
    • 1 banana, ripe
    • 1 cup shredded carrot
    • ¼ cup unsweetened apple sauce
    • ⅛ cup water
    • 1.5 cups whole wheat flour
    • 1 cup oats

    Instructions

    1. Preheat your oven to 350F.
    2. Mash the carrots with the banana, then add applesauce and water.
    3. Fold in the oats and gradually add the flour until a dough is formed.
    4. Lightly sprinkle a counter top with some whole wheat flour and roll out the dough to about ½ inch thick.
    5. Use a small biscuit cutter (or any cutter of your choice!) and place treats on a lightly-sprayed cookie sheet.
    6. Bake for 25 minutes, and then turn off the oven and let the treats stay inside for an additional 2-3 hours. This will dehydrate them further, creating a chewy (or crunchy, depending on how long you let them dehydrate) treat with a longer shelf life!

    What happens when Dexter declares that something belongs to him?

    C'mon, all together now..

    GREMLIN FACE!

    That's when Dewey came on scene and pulled out... The Eyebrows.  Oh I was in trouble.  Those treats were not going to be long for this world.

    Welsh corgi with pitiful white face.
    Could YOU say no to that face?

    That's what I thought.

    Apple and Carrot Homemade dog biscuits.
    They went nuts over these things.  I bet I could get them to do anything I asked if they thought their reward would be a little disc of apple-banana awesomeness.

    .. and I would do anything for him when he looks at me like this!

    Dexter wanted me to tell you all that I left out a step in the  instructions above.  This photo illustrates a very, very important part of this recipe.  Feed to doggeh.

        Sure! The texture will probably be a little different, but I doubt the puppy will mind.

          I have one question. The recipe sounds delish but I’m confused as ther unsweetened apple sauce. Doesn’t that contain sugar substitute or something our baby’s can’t have. Thank you

            Hi! No, when I refer to "unsweetened" applesauce I am referring to all natural applesauce with no added sugar or artificial sweeteners. The ingredients listed on mine are: apples, water, absorbic acid (to maintain color)

      Hi, may I know the cup measurements in grams? It will be much clearer because the cup that we use may differ. And can I use plain flour instead of wheat flour? Because I found out that some dogsay be allergic to wheat. Thank you for the recipe and your dogs seemed to enjoy the cookies. I am going to try to make some for my dog as well. 🙂

          Keep them in an airtight container and they should last the same number of days as any other cookies (3-5 days for best texture, after that they may get more chewy or dry)

      Many thanks! This is one of the only really tasty and low fat, low calorie dog treats I've found online! All our dogs salute you - they give you 6 WOOFS! 😀

        打完發覺跟你的內文互相矛盾而再稍作補充:我所舉的題目很初中程度,在某個角度看來,其實反而符合了英語生活化的理想教學。可是所謂會話,其真諦大概是至少有兩個人在作出相互的言語交流,而非單方面的2分鐘present吧。但不知怎的,由小學開始,不論是中、英文還是普通話會話,都只是集中於叫學生作「個人短講」çš„。會考和高考的中、英文科雖設有討論環節,但無論如何,問題還是離不開這種老土類型--「你們現在要舉辦一個環保週,試作出建議,討論一下這個環保週該包含怎麼的節目。」老土也還罷了,其核心問題是,究竟我生活裏什麼時候會談到這些東西?這裏又歸結到另一個問題--考試常設的會話試題,多數都嚴肅得跟日常生活背道而馳。在平日裏,我們大抵還會用回自己的母語跟友人談論"Who is your favorite singer?",但其他題目,真的只有在考試時才會被逼跟其同檯吃飯。當學校教育始終不敢不以考試為本的時候,學生就注定要繼續沉淪於考試局的無間道吧。(案:ç•¶ç„¶,說到考試局的無間道,橫數掂數都係listening精彩過oral N倍。)

        Řekl bych, že kromě kvality je druhý největší problém dostupnost jídla. Pokud je někdo (děti) zvyklý, že může "mlsat", tj. že se běžně může stravovat pomocí pochutin, pak je obtížné je naučit, že mají jíst i "normální" jídla...

I'm going to try these on my own fur baby and see what she thinks. So far all her treats have been pb-centric so this will be different. (P.S. Are your dogs Corgi's?)

      Came across one of your comments on The Pioneer Woman and something made me checkout your link. As soon as I saw your Corgi favicon I knew I had to come visit! We have 2, an almost 7-yr-old we've had since a pup and an almost 4-yr-old we adopted from another family last September. We haven't made homemade treats in a very long time, my daughter has been after me to do it...so we'll have to try these after our next trip to the grocery - I'm sure our Riley & Duncan will LOVE them!
