These homemade dog biscuits will help your dog celebrate National Dog Biscuit Day.
They say every dog has his day and Friday, February 23, 2007 must be it, because that is National Dog Biscuit Day. I was not able to find out the origin of this doggy holiday but many of us plan to observe it. Dogs will certainly enjoy celebrating with a box of milkbones but, for those who wish to take things a step further and add a personal touch, the recipes below can be made with your very own hands. Try one or both of these to put a wag in your dog’s tail.
Peanut Butter Pooch Cookies
21/2 cups whole wheat flour
¼ cup white flour
¼ cup oatmeal
11/4 Tbsp baking powder
1 Tbsp honey
1 cup peanut butter
1 cup milk
Combine flour, oatmeal, and baking powder. Combine milk, peanut butter, and honey in a separate bowl and mix well. Stir peanut butter mixture into flour/oatmeal mixture. Knead dough and roll-out on floured surface to a quarter inch thickness. Cut out treats using a cookie cutter. Place aluminum foil on cookie sheet and bake in a 400 degree oven for approximately 15 minutes.
Tail Waggers
3 Jars Baby Food – (1 carrot, 2 meat)
1/3 cup Wheat Germ
1/4 cup powdered milk
1/4 tsp garlic powder
Mix ingredients well and then press into small “patties”. Bake in 350 oven for about 15 minutes.
When you make it yourself, you know what goes into it. When cooking for your dog, always remember that chocolate and onions are dangerous for dogs to eat. Happy National Dog Biscuit Day!

Hi Everyone! I just found this site and think its wonderful! I have
contimplated making my own dogfood for years, but since this recall ive
realized that i have no choice, and im actually looking fwd to making
EVERYTHING they eat from now on. I have found so many helpful ideas and
recipes so im ready to satrt...My only question is HOW MUCH FOOD do i feed
them ( when i was feeding them dry i would feed them 2 cups a day) which
for my app. 60 pound dog with a high matabilism fit well, as well as for my
70 pound dog which is much more 'stout' /'stockier'..lets just say i have
to 'watch his weight'..so they are app 60 & 70 poumds, i want to make
sure i feed them what they need. Anybody have advice? I appreciate all
advice. Thank you!Tara...Junior and JoeJoe

Just wandering if one article states that onions and garlic my be harmful
to dog, should we really be putting garlic in the dog biscuit?
I have
heard that dogs like garlic but never knew it could make them sick.
Thanks for your input. Jan

I have only been cooking for My Gal Sal since the recalls, but I'm confused
as to how much to feed.

I would skip the garlic, as it's unsure as to whether or not its okay.
Also, as for how much to feed, you theoretically should feed as much as
your pooch wants. The idea is that if they get the right nutrition, they
will stop eating when they are no longer hungry. Don't worry too much about
how many cups, etc. If it's healthy food, (not too many unused carbs and
grains) then your dog will know when it's full and it won't eat too much :)

I plan on making these dog biscuits as Christmas gifts for my friends that
have dogs. This is a money saving idea, as I am sure we all should be
watching our pennies these days.
