K-9 Dog Treats

[Texas-Hunter]

I posted this in a former life... You can do this in the O...O...Oven if you wish.. but if you have a bit of extra space on the smoker toss them in.. It really makes a big difference... And your pup will thank you..



1/2 cup margarine or butter
3 cups whole wheat flour
1 cup cornmeal
3/4 cup hot chicken or beef broth
1 egg, beaten
1/2 cup skim milk powder


In a large bowl, pour hot broth over margarine.. Next, stir in powdered milk, salt, sugar, and egg... Add flour, 1/2 cup at a time until all flour is added and well mixed... Knead 3-4 minutes while adding more flour as necessary to make a very stiff dough... Roll out to 1/4" thickness and cut into desired shapes with cookie cutters.. Place on cookie cooling racks and Smoke at 250 - 300* for around a hour maybe hour and a half... When they are finished let stand n the counter for a hour for hardening.











I have no dog bone cookie cutters.... I guess the mailman cutter will do...









Finished...

My Dad does these.

Flea-Away Dog Biscuits
Serves 24
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup wheat germ
• 1/2 cup brewer's yeast
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 3 tablespoons olive oil or sesame oil
• 1 cup chicken stock, or beef or vegetable stock
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Grease two to three baking sheets. In a medium bowl, combine the first four ingredients. In a large mixing bowl, combine the garlic and oil. Alternately, add the flour mixture and the stock into the oil and garlic, beating until the dough is well mixed. Shape the dough into a ball. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough to a 12-inch circle. Using a two-inch biscuit cutter, cut the dough into rounds. (Or use a cookie cutter with a dog-biscuit shape.) Transfer the biscuits to greased baking sheets. Bake 20 to 25 minutes, or until the biscuits are well browned. Turn off the heat and allow the biscuits to dry in the oven for several hours or over night. Store in the refrigerator or freezer.

Making your own is penny's a pound compared to $4.99 for a 16 oz. box of MilkBones

Im sure it is easier in the other cooking apparatus.. I was just saying if you had a little extra room on the smoker...
