Please try out the following recipes for delicious dog treats...

Tuna Fudge

Tuna fudge is an inexpensive and well-loved treat which is great for training sessions.

• 12 oz tuna in water (do not drain) - you can also experiment with other fish including sardines
• 2 eggs
• 1 to 1.5 cups flour
• Parmesan cheese, to sprinkle

Mash tuna in bowl or liquefy in a blender, add eggs and then flour to make a very soft dough - almost a batter.  Spread into a greased cookie sheet, or use parchment paper for a quicker clean-up.  Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

Bake at 350 for 15 minutes- it will be the texture of putty or a bit bready.  Cut into small squares, divide into baggies and freeze if desired.

Liver Brownies

Liver brownies are even richer than tuna fudge, and can be used for those hard-to-motivate dogs.

• 1 pound liver
• 1 egg
• 1 large glug of milk
• 2.5 cups flour

Blend liver, egg, and milk in a blender until liquid, then fold in flour. Pour into a greased or parchment paper-lined cookie sheet and bake at 350 degrees for 20-30 minutes (thinner brownies need less time than thicker ones). Cut them into tiny pieces, divide into baggies, and freeze.

Egg and oyster delight

• 1 dozen eggs
• 1 tin of smoked oysters
• 2/3 cup flour
• Parmesan

Mix and blend eggs and oysters with an immersion blender until the oysters are chopped into tiny bits.  Fold in flour, mix well.  Bake for 15 minutes on a parchment paper-lined cookie sheet, or until the egg is cooked through.  Remove from oven and immediately grate Parmesan cheese over the still-hot egg patty, so it melts slightly.  Cut into small pieces.  Refrigerate/freeze extras.
