Homemade Dog Biscuits

The dog at our house is super spoiled, even though she doesn’t realize it.  And at times she probably doesn’t deserve to be spoiled, like when she shreds our Wall Street Journal.  Guess she is no different than humans, we are spoiled and blessed with so much yet we tend to act out.  Overall she’s a wonderful dog, well behaved, and is super great with the kids even if she does get herself into trouble at times.

There is a certain child in our family that especially has a soft spot for animals.  She has been BEGGING me to make dog biscuit treats with her for our black, furry, four-legged, mischievous family member!  Our family had a roasted chicken a few days ago so I decided it was time to experiment with Homemade Dog Biscuits.  The biscuits turned out really well and Skipper, our black lab, now has a giant baggie of homemade dog biscuits.  She seems to think they are AMAZING, but she is not a picky eater.  The girls love giving her the homemade treats too so everyone’s happy (or at least should be).

Homemade Chicken Flavored Dog Biscuits:

• 1 cup Hot Water
• 2 tablespoons Milk
• 2 Chicken Bouillon Cubes
• 3/4 cup Vegetable or Canola Oil
• 2 Eggs
• 1 cup of diced Chicken pieces (we used the heart, liver, gizzard, and pieces of chicken)
• 5 cups Flour

Preheat the oven to 300 degrees.  Grease a cookie sheet and set aside.  Stir all ingredients together to make a thick dough.  Knead the dough on a floured surface for 3 minutes.  Roll the dough out to 1/4 inch thickness.  Use cookie cutters to cut out the shapes (we used a dog bone and bear).  Place the cookies on the baking sheet and cook for 35 minutes, turn off oven and leave in the oven for additional 20 minutes.  The edges should be slightly brown.  Remove from oven and cool.  Store in a Ziplock bag or air tight container in the fridge.
