If you are concerned about what you're feeding your dog since the
recent pet food recalls, recipes for homemade treats are worth a
closer look. Making your own treats is not much more expensive than
buying them commercially. In fact, it may be cheaper.
Commercial treats contain small amounts of low quality meat and large
amounts of filler. They are also full of artificial colors, flavors
and preservatives. These scientifically engineered foods resemble
nothing that dogs would eat in the wild. More and more people are
taking the time to remove artificial foods from their diets - isn't it
time to do the same for your pet? Take the time to research some
recipes and begin making your own chewing bones, cookies and other
snacks. You might actually have fun doing it!
To learn how to make snacks for your dog, first find a website or book
with appropriate recipes. There are many available for a reasonable
price, and they will help you design a diet appropriate to your dog's
breed and size. This diet should also include small training rewards
for good behavior. Be sure to calculate these treats into your pet's
daily nutritional requirements....
