Customer Review: The Ultimate Dog Treat Cookbook: Homemade Goodies for Man's Best Friend
This is a great book of Treats for treating your best friend. I enjoyed making several of the recipes. My dog and my son's dog really enjoyed eating them. I can't wait to try some of the other recipes in the book.
Customer Review: Yummy Treats for Your Favorite Doggie
I love to browse through different cookbooks. I have quite a collection, and usually go to the library to find new recipes to try before I decide to purchase the entire book. I normally look for 3 things in a cookbook, besides delicious recipes that will work for my family (including my dogs). This includes: 1) Pictures of more than ¾ of the recipes (Color pictures are the best) 2) A spiral binding, or at least on that easily lays flat 3) New & innovative recipes that have ingredients I can easily find at a grocery store For this book, I combined my love of my three dogs, with my interest in fun, interesting cookbooks. The recipes are great, and I love that the book includes a chapter for dogs with special needs (allergies to certain food products) as I have a dog that is allergic to both corn and wheat. The chapters include: Cookies by the Spoonful, Cookie-Cutter Treats, Special Goodies for Special Occasions, Good Dogs Deserve Good Treats, and Delicacies for Dogs with Special Needs. The only thing that I disliked about the book is that there are no actual photographs of the finished recipes, and was not in a binding that laid flat. Otherwise, this is a wonderful cookbook with recipes that should leave any dog and their human begging for more great recipes. Some of dog's favorites include: Tummy Tempting Chicken Soup Cookies, Ginny's Bonanza Treats, Carrot Crunchies, Turkey Day Treats, Grain Free Goodies, and Beef and Barley Biscuits. Enjoy!

This is very interesting dog cookbook. My pet will surely love the homemade recipes. This will give me an idea on what to give my pet for her treats. I've seen the inside of the book and the ingredients are really that simple.

This looks interesting. I have never really thought about cooking for my dogs, though.

I admitedly have too much time on my hands, but this sounds like so much fun! Imagine that... cooking homemade doggie treats for your dog. Thanks for the fun idea. Has anyone tried any of these recipes? Do you have any favorites?
