Flea season is upon us (April-September) and since an adult flea can live and breed well over 100 days on your pet if not disturbed, we have quite a task ahead if we don’t take some preventive measures early on:

* Vacuum frequently- all floors and carpets, stairs and under beds too.

* Wash pet bedding frequently.

* Use a safe topical treatment, flea powder, spray or other product. Follow the product instructions provided carefully.

* Ask your vet about topical treatments like Frontline – this product kills adult fleas, and makes them unable to reproduce, cutting your combat time in half.

* Brush and comb your dog frequently.

* Bathe him/her if heavily infested.

* Spray the house with a flea product at least once a week, under beds, couches, etc.

It might be tough to see fleas, but they certainly make their existence known – especially to your pet.

WARNING SIGNS
The first step to stopping a flea-for-all is to be aware of their presence. Keep an eye out for the warning signs that fleas have set up shop on your pet!

BLACK SPECKS — black specks on your pet or in your pet’s bed could be flea dirt, which is feces from the adult fleas. There are two easy ways to check for black specks:

Flea Comb — available from your veterinarian (the metal ones are the best). Run the comb over your pet, making sure the comb reaches the skin through the coat. If black specks are on the comb when you pull it off, they may be flea dirt. If fleas are on the comb, drown them in a bowl of soapy water before they can get away or jump back on your pet.

White paper towel — place a white paper towel beneath your pet and rub your hands across its fur. If black specks appear on the towel, they may be flea dirt.

The following steps can also be taken to prevent ticks from harming your pet:

YARDWORK — you can remove tick habitats from your yard by keeping tall grass clipped, removing any mulch or leaf litter and trimming bushes.

AVOID TALL GRASS OR BRUSH — keep your pet far away from these tick breeding grounds.

EXAMINE YOUR PET — examine your pet thoroughly every day for ticks. Although ticks prefer attaching to your pet’s head, neck and paws, you should still try to cover as much of your pet’s body as he/she will allow.

Don’t despair: if you follow through with the steps above, you’ll end up ahead of the battle. As always the best combat is prevention-good luck!

FAT BALLS

2 C Tomatoes-puree in blender, 2 C Green Beans-puree in
blender, l pound Liver-puree in blender, and cook: 3 C
Cooked Elbow Macaroni, 4 C Cooked Rice, 4 Egg Yolks, 1/3
Jar of Honey, 1 C Corn Oil, 1/3 jar Wheat Germ, 2-3 pounds
Raw Hamburger. Mix all ingredients and add Chex Cereal or
Oatmeal to bind together. Make “meatballs” out of mixture
and freeze. Thaw and microwave individual meatballs as
needed.

Satin Balls

* Cheap hamburger meat [high fat content}
* Lg box of Total Cereal
* Lg box of uncooked oatmeal
* 1 jar of Wheat Germ
* 1 1/4 cup of veg oil
* 1 1/4 cup of unflavored molasses
* 10 eggs
* 10 pks of unflavored gelatin
* Garlic to Taste
* 1 cup of flaxseed...ground up.
* 2 scoops of Source/Kelp
Take all dry ingredients and place in a bowl. I crunch up
the total while still in the box, and then pour all the
other dry ingredients over it In a another large bowl put
the hamburger meat and the wet ingredients. Mix each bowl
well, then half each so that it is easier to mix. Mix just
like you would a meatloaf I then take it raw, and place in
freezer bags and put in the freezer, thaw out a bag as
needed. feed raw. I use this not only as a quick weight
gain, but as a everyday supplement for my dogs this recipe
has been tested and analyzed by several universities and
was found to be a total canine diet a dog could live on
this without added kibble or any other supplements...this
was before I added the Garlic and the Flaxseed and Kelp I
have long hair black dogs, and this recipe really keeps
their coat black/soft/long since I have...the past 6
months I have had no vet bills...and my dogs coats are
wonderful, you need to watch how much you feed it will put
weight on a slim dog in a matter of a few days. It will
also make an easy keeper fat in just a short period of
time. Try it, your dogs will love it!!! One other thing, I
have just started to add Kelp to it also, just for the
added Iodine, may be good for those dogs that have a lower
normal thyroid function. You can make this recipe in what
ever amount you need/want by just halving the recipe down
to what you want.

Magic Meatballs

necessary, add reserved bouillon or water to achieve
desired consistency. Refrigerate immediately. Use within
3-4 days.

Grease a pan and spread half the meat in it. Sprinkle the
meat generously with whole wheat flour. Spread remaining
half of meat into pan. Sprinkle again with whole wheat
flour. Cover with dog meal and pour broth over. Bake at
150C for 45 minutes and then allow to cool. Feed warm.
Vegetables and cheese can be added depending on your dogs
taste.

German Shepherd Casserole
* 500gms of any meat
* 1 carrot finely chopped
* 1 small potato finely chopped
* 1 stick celery finely chopped
* 1/2 cup sliced green beans (string less)
* 1 tbsn Gravox
Place all ingredients into a large casserole dish. Cover
with water and mix. Place lid on casserole. Microwave on
High for 10 minutes and then Medium for 10 minutes. This
should be cooked at least an hour before feeding so that
it is well cooled.

Scrambled Eggs Doggie Style

* 1 cup dry dog food
* 3 eggs
* 1/2 cup ground hamburger
* any other ingredients your dog may fancy.
Mix eggs, hamburger, and any other ingredients. Scramble.
Pour over dry dog food.

Akita Style Lamb & Rice

* 1 1/2 cups brown rice
* 2 stalks Broccoli
* 2 or 3 medium potatoes
* 3 medium carrots
* 4 cloves garlic
* 1 sheet kombu, Sea Kelp (optional)
Brown lamb in a fry pan. After it gets going, put on the
chopped garlic to brown. Boil water, put about 4-5 cups
into a crock pot, so it is already hot while you are
fixing the rest of the ingredients. Add cubed potatoes to
the frypan. Cut broccoli and add this to the crock. Put
the rest of the works in the pot, add enough hot water to
cover. Add pepper to taste. Throw in 1/2 cup brown rice
and mix.

Katie Cudlin's Dog Food
A bit about the following recipe...Katie is a friend of
mine with two very gorgeous and healthy German Shepherds.
Katie follows the idea that your dog's diet should be
composed of about 30% fresh and raw (i.e., unprocessed)
foods because processed food has had the enzymes and
micro-nutrients cooked out. Katie cooks this up about once
a month.
* 8 cups oats
* 2 cups brown rice
* 6 Cups barley
* 2 lbs. carrots finely grated
* 3-4 bunches broccoli - grate stems, chop flowerets
* 6 zucchini grated or 1 lb. green beans chopped
* 1/2 bunch parsley, chopped
* 4-5 cloves garlic, minced
Use 8 quart stock pots. Cook oats. In another pot, cook
brown rice and barley. Cool (to save time, cook in evening
and cool overnight). Next day: Cut vegetables - use food
processor. Using rubber gloves, combine all ingredients in
a 25 quart stock pot. Shape into balls about 1/4 lb. each.
Wrap and freeze.
This recipe can be easily scaled down for smaller batches.

Home Cooking
This is a bulk recipe for those with more than one dog who
want to feed well balanced home cooked food.
* approx. 5 lbs of ground beef or chicken
* 3/4 cup canola oil
* 4-5 cloves garlic
* 32 cups water
* 8-10 cups processed veggies (various)
* (carrots, celery, broccoli, cauliflower, bean sprouts,
potatoes, sweet potatoes, red peppers, spinach, beets,
lettuce, tomatoes, etc.)
* NO ONIONS (not good for dogs)
* 2-3 cans kidney beans
* 1/2 molasses (optional)
* 42-45 oz oatmeal (quick cooking oats)
* eggs can be added to boost protein
In a large 24qt pot brown ground meat, add canola oil and
garlic. When well cooked, add water. Bring to boil, then
add veggies that have been processed, (frozen or canned
veggies will work too). I use dried kidney beans and soak
them the night before preparing a batch of food. While I
am cooking the meat I have the beans in another pot
cooking them. Once cooked, they are added to the above
mixture. Next, the oatmeal is added. Frequent stirring is
necessary at this point as the mixture will stick. Remove
from heat, cool and put into containers. The above mixture
feeds 3 Boxers for 1 week. I occasionally add pumpernickel
bread and some times substitute brown rice for some of the
oatmeal. This recipe is very flexible. I also add a
mixture called Healthy powder to each meal. I feed twice
daily and add 1 tsp of healthy powder to each meal for
each dog.

Auggie's Wolfdown
* 16-qt stew pot with cover
* enough olive oil to coat bottom of pot
* 5-6 lbs. ground beef
* 2 50-oz cans chicken broth
* 4 cups water
* 1 3-lb bag frozen corn
* 1 3-lb bag brown rice
Brown ground beef in olive oil. When beef is cooked, add
broth, water, and corn. (Note that broth and water amount
to just over a gallon of liquid; you can also just dump in
a gallon jug of water and add a bunch of bouillon cubes.)
Bring to a boil. Add brown rice, stir well, cover, and
bring to a boil again. Reduce heat to low and simmer,
covered, for 1 hour. Remove from heat and let cool
overnight. Makes approximately 40-45 cups of food.
I divide the yield into generous 2-cup portions and freeze
most of it (it freezes well). I always have some thawed in
the fridge and microwave it for a minute or so to get it
to room temperature. I then serve it as follows:

Breakfast
* 1 portion (2 cups) Wolfdown
* 1 cup high-quality all-natural kibble

Dinner
* 1 portion (2 cups) Wolfdown
* 1 cup fresh shredded veggies
* 2-3 times a week: a little nonfat plain yogurt and an
egg yolk
Auggie was a reluctant eater with commercial foods; now
he's a tail-waggin', dish-movin', food inhalation machine.
Bon appetite!

Leftovers Stew
* Any dog safe leftovers
* 2 eggs
* milk (as much as your dog prefers)
* dog food (you won't need too much )
Cut up leftovers into pieces. Be sure there are no tiny
bones. Use as much as you want. Mix in two raw eggs. Poor
in milk. Use as much as you want. Mix together, and heat
in microwave for 20-30 sec. ( or serve cold ) Poor over
dog food.

Grrrrisotto
* olive oil
* sesame oil
* 1 potato, peeled and finely chopped
* 3-4 button mushrooms, cut into quarters or sliced
* 50g/2 oz cooked whole grain rice
* 50g/2 oz canned sweet corn
* 75 g/3 oz cooked chicken, in strips or chunks
* 39 g/2 tbsp plain yogurt
Heat the oil, throw in the potato pieces, and sauté until
translucent. Add the mushrooms, and keep stirring while
adding the rice and the sweet corn. Next add the chicken,
stirring a little longer; reduce the heat to low. Keep
stirring for a further 2-3 minutes. Lastly stir in the
yogurt, reduce the heat to very low. Continue to stir for
1 more minute. Cover and leave for 5 minutes, lifting off
the lid and stirring briefly every minute or so. Allow to
cool completely. Sprinkle sesame oil on top of food
(optional).

Snobben´s Chili
* chunks of meat
* chili beans i beans
* can of crushed tomatoes
* garlic
* chili pepper
* jalapeno peppers
* bell peppers
* beer
Soak the beans in water overnight. Fry the meat in oil
with peppers and spices. Pour in some beer. Put in the
beans and fill up with water and a can crushed tomatoes.
Leave to slowly boil until meat and beans are almost
dissolved.
Serve with corn chips.

CANINE/HUMAN CORN BREAD

Combine dry ingredients. Add liquids and beat until
smooth. Pour into a greased, 8" square baking pan. Bake in
a preheated 425F. oven 15-20 minutes. Yield: 16 (2")
squares.

LIVER CORNBREAD

Substitute pureed beef liver for milk in an otherwise
standard packet of corn bread. Follow packet directions,
except that it takes less time to bake. Variations: use
chicken liver or ground turkey or chicken instead of beef
liver; use up to 1 lb of beef liver instead of 2/3 cup;
add an egg; add garlic; add extra oil. Highly perishable,
so cut into pieces and freeze. Very rich, a little goes a
long way.
Mint Rice Hamburger
* 5 cups of uncooked rice
* 10 cups of water
* 2 pounds low fat hamburger
* 5 tbs dried mint
Bring rice to a boil. Add hamburger and mint. Bring back
to boil. Mix well. Reduce heat to low. Cook until all
water is absorbed. My golden retriever loves this meal and
the mint gets rid of bad breath!

Pasta Hash Supreme
This is a bulk recipe for those with more than one dog who
want to feed well balanced home cooked food.
* 2 lbs pasta (The shapely kind has more texture)
* 2 lbs brown rice
* 32 oz Cottage cheese
* 1 package chicken leg quarters
* 1 lb chicken liver
* 1 lb Mixed veggies (No corn, it just comes out the other
end undigested so why waste the money)
* Garlic
* Italian seasoning
Place liver and rice in pot with 2-3 cloves of garlic add
water in a 2-1 ratio (2 cups water to 1 cup rice). bring
to a boil. Turn down heat and cook for 40 min.
Season chicken with spices and bake in oven at 400 degrees
for 1 1/2-2 hours. Or till a little crispy.
After chicken is done. Boil water in a large pot add
pasta. Cook 8-10 Min.
Dump rice and liver mix into a large container( it will
need to be big enough to mix all the ingredients together.
Large tupperware works great).
Place frozen veggies in colander. Drain pasta over
veggies.
Debone chicken add to rice mix. Add pasta mix. Add cottage
cheese. Stir well.
Serve mixed with a little kibble or just by itself.
Caution this can be a little messy with the rice kernels
and cottage cheese. serve in a place that can be easily
cleaned up after the pig out session.
Save chicken bones and boil with a pot full of water until
1/4 of the water remains. This makes a great broth for the
next time you make the rice mix just substitute 1/2 the
water for this rich broth. The dogs really love it.

Minced Veggies & Rice
* 500g low grade mince (but not pet mince)
* 1 kg Mixed frozen veggies (no onion)

TESTERS NOTE: Tessa is a 19 kilo, 6 month old Kelpie cross
pup & she loves it! She gobbles down half a kilo in one go
every morning. I made up this recipe because I think that
she deserves nothing but the best. I made up the weight
reducing equivalent for any one with an overweight dog who
wants to treat their dog and make them a very yummy, yet
healthy meal. This recipe is cheap and easy to make.

Ghoulosh
1 lb meat - ground beef, ground turkey, ground venison,
etc.
2c cooked BROWN rice
2 cans veggies, or fresh veggies (about 3 cups)- broccoli,
asparagus, sweet
potatoes, green beans, carrots, spinach, kale
2 hardboiled eggs chopped and shells crushed
1 can of mackerel
2 cloves of garlic, minced
chicken livers or gizzards, chopped (about $1.00 worth)

Pulverize veggies, either in a blender, processor,
grinder, etc. Mix all ingredients together in a big pot.
Add enough water to cover, mix well. if you feed raw,
which we do, place into containers, enough for one feeding
in each, and freeze. We use plastic baggies. If you don't
feed raw, cover the pot and simmer for about 2 hrs,
stirring occasionally. When it is done cooking, cool, and
place into containers or baggies, enough for one feeding
in each and freeze. Simply get out in the morning to thaw
in the fridge.
Dogs get this every evening for dinner, with 1/4-1/2c
kibble mixed in, depending on size of dog. **feed 1c per
15 lb body weight**

Gravies
Doggie Gravy for Dry Food
* 1 Boneless/skinless Chicken Breast
* 4 Cups Water
* 1 Cup Flour
* 2 Whole Eggs
* (all items approx.)
Boil chicken breast for about 1/2 an hour, remove to cool.
Add flour to chicken water. Beat out lumps. Add pre-beaten
eggs. Cook on low heat until it's done thickening.
Pulverize chicken in food processor. Add to flour/egg
gravy. May need to add more water. Unfortunately it won't
freeze. But using a few tablespoons daily, it should be
used up before it sours.
Gravy Galore

* 1/2 Tin of pedigree chum
* 3 small potatoes
* few chopped carrots
* plenty of gravy so that the food is very moist.
Put your chum in then add the potatoes and carrots and

Microwave Minced Lamb with Pasta, Carrot & Parsley
* 1-1.5 kg of lean lamb mince (can use veal, chicken, beef
or hamburger (lean) or combination)
* 1 bag of vermicelli egg noodles (Nanda/Maggi is better
than Vetta)
* 250 g bag of grated carrot (eg from Woollies/Big
Fresh)or do your own
* Half a bunch of parsley
* 1 clove of garlic (if very small, use 2), finely chopped
or crushed
* 250 mL lactose-free milk (e.g. Pets Own) or water to
make a veggie puree
* Half a cup of Meat-Bix (from pet shops, they get it in
bulk and sell by weight).
Puree the carrot and parsley with milk or water. Use a
hand held blender in a beaker or tall, narrow bowl, and
use as much milk or water as you need to puree with. I
usually end up with 500 mL of carrot and parsley smoothie.

Boil some water to cook the egg noodles in.
Put the mince into a covered microwave-safe dish large
enough to hold all these ingredients and mix in the
garlic. Cook on high for two minutes then remove and stir.
Cook a further minute and stir - repeat this process until
meat is cooked evenly (approx 8 minutes total).
Break up egg noodles (it is easier to do this now than
after they are cooked!) and cook for 3 minutes, then
drain. If you use the Vetta noodles, you will definitely
need to add oil to the water first, with the Nanda it
doesn't seem to matter).
While you are cooking the noodles, add the Meat-Bix to the
cooked mince and mix well. It will absorb any liquid from
the meat.
Add the drained noodles to the meat mixture and mix well -
if you think it needs more cooking do so now, before
adding the pureed vegetables.
Mix in the pureed vegetables. Divide into portions and
freeze until needed.
COMMENTS
These quantities, if mixed half and half with dry kibble
at feeding time, are enough to feed two 5-month-old
maltese puppies for about two weeks.

Rastus' Microwaved Casserole
For a small dog, but is basically one third each of meat,
veggies and rice, so quantities and cooking times can
easily be adjusted for larger dogs.
* 1-1.5 kg meat (can use bite sized chunks of steak and
kidney, chicken or lamb off the bone, or mince)
* 1 soup mix fresh veggie pack (carrot, celery, potato,
turnip, parsnip, parsley, etc)
* Several leaves of silverbeet or spinach (optional)
* 2 cups uncooked Sungold rice (or about 4 cups cooked
rice)
* Pearled barley (about one-third of a cup)
* 1 teaspoon crushed or chopped garlic
* 1 teaspoon crushed or grated ginger
* Dash of soy sauce
* Dash of red wine (optional!)
* Small squeeze of tomato paste
* Few pinches of mixed herbs
Cook rice by steam method. (I do this in a microwave
steamer - takes 20 minutes for the Sungold rice). Place
all other ingredients (except veggies) into large covered
microwave-safe dish. Mix and cook on high for 2 minutes.
Repeat last step until meat is mostly cooked. (about 10
minutes if using meat chunks) Chop veggies, add to meat
mix and stir well. Cook 10 minutes and stir. Repeat last
step twice or until barley is swollen. Add cooked rice and
mix well. Divide into portions and freeze.
If you prefer to feed raw veggies, you could puree the
veggies and not add them until after the cooking is
finished.
NB: (for you guys outside of Australia). "Sungold" rice is
just a brand of quick-cooking brown rice

Magic Doggie Cookies
Read the whole recipe before beginning.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Line 2 jellyroll pans (these are larger than cookie sheets
and have 1 inch sides) with wax paper, cut to fit the
bottom only. Place the wax paper in the pan & then spray
the wax paper with a cooking spray. Set aside & prepare
dough.
Ingredients:
* 4 pounds raw liver (I use chicken liver)
* 7 cups of regular flour
* 4 cups oatmeal (grind to a fine crumble in a food
processor)
* 8 Teaspoons of chicken bouillon
* 1/2 to 1 cup of HOT water (to dissolve bouillon)
* 8 eggs, beaten
* 6 Teaspoons of garlic POWDER (not salt)
Dissolve the bouillon in the hot water & set aside.
In a LARGE bowl combine the following:
Process the liver until it is mush (or chop very, very
finely).
Add the beaten eggs
Add the garlic powder
Add the dissolved bouillon
Stir this mixture until well blended.
Add to the wet mixture a little at a time:
1. Flour
2. Finely ground oatmeal
If you add the flour/oatmeal all at once, the mixture may
ball up into a lump!
After the whole glop is thoroughly mixed, spread it out
evenly into the prepared jelly roll pans.
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or till baked clear through to
the center.
Let the baked goodies cool in the pan a bit, then loosen
the dough around the edges, turn the pan upside down onto
a bread board, remove the wax paper, and cut into
bait-sized squares. I then place the cookies into zip-lock
storage bags and put them in the refrigerator for up to 2
weeks. These cookies freeze very well also.
Hints:
It is not necessary to food process the oatmeal, but I
like it fine so the cookies are less crumbly.
This recipe is easily adjusted to fit your needs…I just
happen to make enough for 6 dogs so I designed this recipe
to fit my needs.
Play around with the amount of garlic and bouillon (my
Beards like lots of both), but be careful of the
liquids–you don’t want the mix to be soupy.

———————————–GLAZE———————————–

1 lg Egg
2 tb Milk
Place 2 oven racks in the upper & lower thirds of the
oven. Preheat oven to 300F. Sprinkle the dry yeast or
crumble the compressed yeast over the water (110F if dry,
100F if compressed). Add the pinch of sugar & allow yeast
to sit in a draft-free spot for 10 to 20 minute.
The mixture should be full of bubbles. If not, the yeast
is too old to be useful. Stir well to dissolve the yeast.
In a large bowl, place all the dry ingredients & stir well
to blend them. Add the yeast mixture & 3 c broth. Using
your hands, in the bowl, mix to form the dough, adding
more broth if needed to make the dough smooth & supple.
Half a batch at a time, knead the dough briefly on a
lightly floured counter. (Keep the 2nd batch of dough
covered with a moist towel while shaping and cutting the
first.) Roll out the dough into 18 x 13 x 1/4-inch
rectangle. Cut into desired shapes using 3 1/2 inch bone
cutter or 2 1/2 inch cookie cutter. Reroll the scraps.
Repeat procedure with remaining dough. For an attractive
shine, lightly beat together the egg and the milk.
Brush the glaze on the cookies. Bake for 45 to 60 minutes
or until brown & firm. For even baking, rotate the cookie
sheets from top to bottom 3/4 of the way through the
baking period. Use a small, angled metal spatula to
transfer the cookies to wire racks to cool completely.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature-cracked
wheat & kelp are available at most health food stores-Use
2 cups of bran cereal (not flakes) in place of the cracked
wheat, if desired. If your dog is large, make larger
cookies. Allow the cookie sheets to cool completely before
using for the next batch. Distribute cookies evenly around
sheet; avoid crowding or overlapping.

degrees. Line a cookie sheet with foil. Mix flours and all
other dry ingredients in a large bowl. Add egg, oil, and
beef broth. Mix the dough, adding enough additional flour
to make a dough that can be rolled.
On a floured surface, roll to 1/2 inch thickness, then cut
into heart shapes with floured heart cookie cutter or
pattern cut from cardboard (2″ diam for small dog; 3 1/2″
for large). If using pattern, flour top of dough first.
Place hearts 1″ apart on foil-covered cookie sheet. Reroll
scraps. With a skewer print a line of dots halfway through
dough 1/4″ from sides and down centers. Bake for 2 hours.

Turn the oven off, and let biscuits stand in oven
overnight to harden. Can be stored in plastic bags at room

1/2 c Powdered milk
1/2 ts Salt
1 ea Egg – beaten
3 c Whole wheat flour
Mix well – roll in to small logs in your hands and bake at
325 degrees for about 50 minutes.
PERSONAL NOTE – this was all there was to the directions -
but I see no reason why you can’t roll the dough out and
then cut with cookie cutters and bake or after making them
into logs cutting them into 1/2 inch pieces and then
baking. Also found it in a file on the Internet and one of
the categories was bread maker – so I suppose you could
use the dough cycle in your bread maker and then take it
out and proceed.

dry out till hard. I bake these on an un-greased 14 x 15
1/2 inch air bake pan which it *fills* using both large
and small cookie cutters. They can be placed side by side
since there is no rising. They slide right off onto an
opened brown bag and cool and harden in no time. I was
advised in DOGHOUSE by a learned fellow that it might not
be a bad idea to cut the sugar and salt quantities. Gotta
watch their health too! Considering what’s in the treats
to be bought, these are considerably better for them.

Puppy Treats

* 1/2 cup powdered milk
* 1 tsp. garlic powder
* 1 tsp. granulated bouillon (fish)
* 6 tbsp. meat drippings
* 1 egg beaten
* ice water
My dogs prefer fish flavored granulated bouillon, but you
can use any flavor you wish. Combine it and the rest of
the dry ingredients. Cut in drippings until mixture
resembles cornmeal. Mix in egg. Add just enough water to
make mixture form a ball. Pat (or roll) dough to 1/2″
thick and cut into desired shapes. Small dogs (like mine)
like bite sized pieces like stars about the size of a
quarter. The general rule is the bigger the dog, the
bigger the ‘cookie’. The ‘10 servings’ are for 6″ bones.
Place on a lightly greased cookie sheet. Bake at 350
degrees, 25 to 30 minutes, until hard and dry. Cool before
serving.
Cleo’s Turkey Cookies
* 3/4 cup butter or margarine

* 2 cups rolled oats

* 1 cup raisins
* 1 cup chopped turkey bacon
* 2 cups coarsely crushed bran flakes cereal
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and honey. Beat
in the eggs, vanilla, and baking soda. Add the oats and
flour; mix well. Fold in the raisins and bacon. Gently
fold in the cereal. Drop by a tablespoon, about 2 inches
apart, onto greased baking sheets. Bake in a preheated 350
degree oven until lightly browned, 15-20 minutes. Let the
cookies stand on the sheets 10 minutes before removing to
wire racks to cool completely.
The Garlic and Parmesan Cookie Treats:
Using a food processor or a stand mixer, mix together:
2 cups flour (white, whole wheat or both in combination)

1/3 cup safflower oil
1/3 cup parmesan cheese
1 tsp. garlic powder
1 egg
1/3 cup powdered milk

Enough water to form a stiff dough
Roll out dough and place on ungreased cookie sheet. Score
the dough with pizza cutter or other crimping tool into
any size or pattern you like. For morning cookies, make
them bigger. For training treats, make them really small.
Bake in 350 degree oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until
nicely browned. Turn off oven, and allow the cookies to
remain on the tray in the oven for one hour to overnight.
The longer you leave them in the oven the harder and
crisper they will become. Break cookies apart and store
tightly covered. Put them in plastic zip bags and place in
freezer. Pull out as many as you want when needed.
If you want to serve them to human company, cut them into
match stick sized pieces, and bake only until lightly
brown. Sprinkle them with coarse salt as they come out of

another story), pat onto greased cookie sheets & bake at
325 for 1 hour. After 1 hour turn oven off, crack oven
door & allow cookies to cool in oven. Break into whatever
size you want (mine like LARGE).
These freeze really well. My guys love these, they sit in
front of the oven waiting.
Golden Beardie Liver Brownies

refrigerate. Will keep for about 2 weeks (if they last
that long) or you can freeze them!

lb Liver, 1 1/2 C Corn Meal, 3-4 Eggs, 2-3 cloves Minced
Garlic. Put in well greased pan and bake for 20 min. When

Bonnie’s Sunshine Liver Brownies
The recipe makes a lot of brownies so keep any leftovers
(should there be any) in the freezer because they spoil
real easy.
* 3 to 3 1/2 lbs of liver, beef or chicken
* 1 C whole wheat flour
* 4.25 oz jar fresh minced or crushed garlic
* 2 C white flour
* 1/2 C corn meal
* 1 med shaker of grated parmesan cheese
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cover cookie sheet with foil,
coat with cooking spray, sprinkle lightly with corn meal
and set aside. Process liver and garlic in food processor
or blender until it looks like milk chocolate. Pour into
large mixing bowl and blend in the rest of the
ingredients. Spread evenly onto cookie sheet (the mixture
will be thick) and sprinkle lightly with corn meal. Bake
until no pink is left. I usually bake them for about 30
min for one pan and then turn the oven off but leave the
brownies inside until they are cool. Cut in pieces and be
ready to be loved by your dog(s). I have yet to meet a dog
that doesn’t like SLBs and I think that this is about the
greatest bait on earth… Enjoy!!!

Liver Bait #1
Yield: 40 servings

4 Eggs
1 c Cornmeal
Garlic salt/powder
Mix in food processor or blender until smooth. Pour onto
greased cookie sheet. Bake for 30 min. at 350. When cool
cut into squares.

Liver Bait #2
Yield: 1 servings
BAIT RECIPE I have two recipes. One calls for a large
slice of raw liver. Sprinkle generously with garlic
powder. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Put liver on nonstick
metal cookie sheet and bake for 10 min., then turn off the
oven and leave in until cooled. Slice and freeze. Works
great and is easy. You can turn liver over when you turn
off oven if you want.
Recipe # 2 calls for raw liver to be pureed (sp.) in a
food processor with a whole egg, shell and all, and
generous amt. of garlic powder. Add uncooked oatmeal to
the “meat” until it is the consistency of cookie dough.
Grease and flour a glass baking pan and bake at 350 for
about 15 min. You really need to check on it occasionally
as times can vary. Cool, slice and freeze. I like this
recipe best because I hate liver and the slimy feel of it
in my pocket. This makes a nice dry but palatable cookie
that I’ve never seen any dog refuse.
Liver Bait Recipe
You will need:
1 lb. liver (beef or chicken)
1 1/2 cups flour (whole-wheat)
1 cup cornmeal
1 egg
1 tbsp brewers yeast (opt)
dash of garlic powder
Put liver in the blender and blend it a bit, then add
everything else (including egg shells if you want), blend
well. Pour onto a flat cookie sheet (greased or sprayed)
Bake at 325 degrees for 25 minutes. Score the biscuits
while warm.
You can also just use beef heart cooked in water with
garlic until done, then slice it up and dry it out a bit
in a 200 degree oven. The dogs love this as well and it
doesn’t seem to go through them as fast.

Cheese N Garlic Bites
* 1 cup wheat flour
* 1 cup grated cheddar cheese
* 1 tablespoon garlic powder ( not garlic salt!)
* 1 tablespoon soft butter or margarine
* 1/2 cup milk
Mix flour and cheese together. Add garlic powder and
softened butter. Slowly add milk till you form a stiff
dough. You may not need all of the milk. Knead on floured
board for a few minutes.

Wheat free Salmon Treats
* 1 8 oz. can salmon with juice
* 1/2 cup chopped parsley
* 3 eggs, shells included
* 1/2 cup sesame seeds ground up in coffee grinder
* 1/2 cup flax seeds ground up in coffee grinder
* 2-3 cups potato flour
Put these ingredients into a food processor, mix VERY
WELL. Pour potato flour through the opening while the
motor is running. I can’t tell you exactly how much, but I
would guess about 2-3 cups. When the dough forms, like a
pie curst, and rolls into a ball it is ready to take out.

Dump this mess onto potato floured counter or board. Knead
more flour into this and when it is a rolled out cookie
consistency, it is ready to roll out into about 14 inch
thick. I use a pizza cutter to roll our long strips and
then cut crosswise to make small squares . If you want
FANCY you may use a cookie cutter. Bake on cookie sheets,
sprayed Pam or line the sheet with parchment paper. I put
in as many as will fit. Usually two whole cookie sheets
suffices. I bake this in a 375º oven for 20 min. Turn and
rotate the cookie sheets and bake about 10 more minutes.
You can make them as soft or as hard as you want.

BabyDog Shampoo Bar
Ingredient List
12 ounces of Virgin Coconut Oil
2 ounces of Hazelnut Oil
.5 ounces of Neem Oil (this oil smells really awful but
has great skin healing qualities)
14 ounces of Organic Olive Oil
14 ounces of Palm Kernel Oil
2 ounces of Shea Butter
6.4 ounces of Lye
5 ounces of Chamomile Herbal Infusion (very strong
chamomile tea)
12 ounces of Goat’s Milk (Condensed Milk – 1 can) TOTAL of
17 ounces of liquid which made this recipe very DRY.
1/8 cup of honey
20 drops of Lavender pure essential oil
1 tsp of Rosemary Oil Extract (anti-oxidant)
1 tsp of Vitamin E (anti-oxidant)
The goat’s milk smelled like ammonia when it reacted with
the lye. This smell is temporary and will disappear (thank
goodness!)
A wonderful gentle bar to use on your baby dog.
Please keep soap out of eyes! THIS IS NOT A “NO-TEARS”
SOAP
Recommend a diluted apple cider vinegar rinse or herbal
tea rinse to insure all soap is removed from skin and fur.

Doggie Body and Coat Tea:
Herbal teas make wonderful rinses for canine coats and I
will give a few recipes for you to try out and of course
when comfortable you can start adding your own touches.

1 Tbs of organic cider vinegar
2 cups of herbal tea (chamomile, rosemary or peppermint)

Nettle, comfrey leaf, calendula leaf (loose herbs)
A few drops of glycerin (optional)
Boil the water and poor it over the tea bag of your
choice, cover it and let it simmer for 10-15 minutes. If
you are using a tea bag and some loose dry or fresh herbs,
you have to strain the whole thing when it cools.
If you are using roots, seeds or barks (hard plant parts)
such as ginger, fennel, valerian root, soak your them in
cool water overnight and than boil them for 10-15 minutes.
Then follow the above steps.
Once it’s cold add organic vinegar and glycerin. Dilute
this solution with 1-2 cups of bottled water. Use this
mixture as the last rinse water for your dog. You can wipe
your dog’s face with it as well. It’s light and the scent
is so mild that it will not bother her/his sensitive nose.

You can also put this doggie body tea in a spray bottle
without diluting it and mist lightly while brushing your
dog. I use both peppermint and chamomile all year around
and it’s makes our German Shepherd’s coat smell great and
helps the itchies she gets after hiking and excessive
swimming.
Make sure to label (date, ingredients used) and
refrigerate left over tea.

Goat’s milk/carrot and honey Shampoo Bar
Ingredient List
14 ounces of Virgin Coconut Oil
6 ounces of Hemp Oil
21 ounces of Organic Olive Oil
9 ounces of Palm Kernel Oil
2 ounces of Shea Butter
7.4 ounces of Lye
12 ounces of chamomile and rosemary herbal tea (make a
strong tea and cool and strain)
12 ounces of Goat’s Milk (Condensed Milk – 1 can)
Dilute the 12 ounce can of Goat’s Milk with 12 ounces of
the herbal tea mixture. Store the remaining 12 ounces for
future soap making.
Add 10 ounces of freshly squeezed carrot juice to the 12
ounces of diluted Goat’s Milk mixture for a total of 22
ounces of liquid for this recipe.
1/4 cup of finely ground oats
1/4 cup of honey
20 drops of Lavender pure essential oil
1 tsp of Rosemary Oil Extract (anti-oxidant)
1 tsp of Vitamin E (anti-oxidant)
The goat’s milk did not smelled like ammonia (this time :)
when it reacted with the lye because the 22 ounces of
liquid was placed in the freezer until slushy. Lye was
added slowly until dissolved.
Hot processed over direct constantly stirring to prevent
scorching of the soap.
A wonderful gentle bar to use on your baby dog. Please
keep soap out of eyes!
Recommend to thoroughly rinse and then use a diluted apple
cider vinegar rinse or
the Body and Coat Tea Rinse recipe.

Aloe Vera Pet Shampoo
About as pure a shampoo as you can get, this recipe is
detergent-free; in addition, the healing properties of
aloe vera gel helps to sooth skin irritations.
Simple Solution:
* 2 cups water
* 2 teaspoons liquid castile soap
* 2 tablespoons aloe vera gel
* Up to 1 teaspoon vegetable glycerin or vegetable oil
Combine all ingredients in a jar. Shake to blend. Get the
pet’s coat wet, pour on the shampoo a few tablespoons at a
time, lathering as you go. Work the shampoo in with your
hands. Rinse thoroughly. Unless you want the pet to shake
themselves dry (and get everything in the vicinity wet at
the same time!), towel them dry.

DRY PET SHAMPOO
1 C. flour
1 C. cornmeal
Mix the ingredients and pour them into a container roomy
enough to hold the pet – a large paper box for a big pet
or a deep roasting dish for a small pet will work.
Place the container filled with the mixture in the bathtub
and gently place your pet into the pan or box. Rub the
mixture, by handfuls, into your pet’s fur until all the
goo or oil or mess has been absorbed. Gently brush the
mixture out of the fur. Be careful to keep the mixture out
of your pet’s eyes, nose and ears. Dispose of the used
mixture. It’s a good idea to follow up with a regular mild
shampoo at this point if you can manage it.

ROSEMARY CASTILE SOAP
(for dogs and cats)
1 bar castile soap, grated
3 oz. strong rosemary infusion
Melt the soap in a double boiler. Add the rosemary brew
and stir until blended well. Pour liquid soap into a
wide-mouth container and let it set. This soap will deter
fleas, keep skin clean, and give the coat a health shine.
Home Remedies for Ailments and Itchys

Remedies

Herbal Flea Powder
Get as many of these herbs as you can — in powder form

Eucalyptus
Rosemary
Fennel
Yellow dock
Wormwood
Rue

Combine the powdered herbs in equal measure and mix well

Put the mixture in a shaker type jar [like a large spice
shaker]
Apply sparingly to the dog by brushing backward with your
hand or comb and sprinkling it into the base of the hairs,
especially on the neck, back and belly. To combat severe
infestations, use several times a week.
After applying powder, put the dog outside for a while so
that the disgruntled tenants vacate in the yard and not in
the house.

Lemon Skin Tonic

Bring 1 pint of water to a boil and remove from heat
Add 1 thinly sliced lemon
Allow to steep overnight or all day
Strain liquid

The liquid can be put into a spray bottle, squeeze bottle
or just a container. Apply liberally to the coat of the
dog and rub in so that the skin is wet.

Lemons are very good for the skin and contain limonene
which is an effective insect repellent. The limonene
actually dissolves fleas’ waxy coating causing dehydration
and death of the flea.
Use as often as necessary.

Ointment Recipe
1/3 cup of Olive or other vegetable oil
1 tbls beeswax
1 tbls myrrh powder
1 tbls goldenseal [cut herb is best]

Gently heat oil, myrrh and goldenseal over low heat for
about 20 minutes.
Strain oil through a coffee filter. [This can take a
while]
Re-measure the oil. Restore to 1/3 cup
In a double boiler, heat the oil and beeswax until the wax
is completely melted
Remove from heat. Stir in citric acid.
Pour into sterilized jar and allow to cool before capping

Store in the refrigerator.

Note: If you have vitamin E capsules around, pierce it and
substitute the contents for the citric acid.

TICK AND FLEA ELIMINATOR
For a 100-pound dog: (Adjust proportionately to other
weights.)
1 heaping T. brewer’s yeast

These ingredients are inexpensive when bought in bulk, and
besides being an effective flea and tick repellent, they
