~ Today's special is this dog treat recipe ~
NOW, did my 4 dogs like them? To say YES does this recipe injustice - they loved it and actually made them more relaxed while eating (not hoarding here). Not one piece was left on the floor, and they wanted more. I placed them in a Tupperware container and put in spare refrigerator to keep from spoiling.
I compared costs, and here is the breakdown:
Old dog biscuits you buy from Pet-Smart or Walmart - $4.25 per bag
Making our own - $1.59 plus cost of 3 cups flour, 2 eggs and stove!
Just another way to take good care of our loved ones (not providing them with treats that have "Who Knows What" for ingredients) or making our own where we control what our dogs eat! Its your CHOICE! )
