This recipe sounds a little dodgy but believe me your pups will love you for it. In fact I use these when I am training my dogs for tricks and obedience. These beef liver dog treats can be made in bulk, then frozen and used when you want. I must admit I’ve sometimes given them to my dogs when they are 1/2 frozen and it helps them to cool down ! So here is my recipe for some dog treats.

Beef Liver Treats Ingredients

200g of beef liver
3 – 4 tablespoons of garlic powder or 2 – 4 cloves of real garlic minced.

Note : Garlic powder is better, and garlic salt is not a substitute !

How to make dog beef liver treats

Boil the beef in a small pot and add in your garlic powder. Let it cook through
Preheat your oven to 190 degrees Celcius
Put your cooked beef liver on a baking tray and put into the oven
Bake for 1/2 hour or longer until the beef is dry
Allow beef to cool fully before cutting into small strips.

To store these I put about 10 treats in a freezer bag and pop them into the freezer. They will stay good for at least 6 months, but I’ve found I’ve used my treats well before then !

Homemade Dog Treats

As an owner of many dogs, I’ve seen how expensive treats are, but I still want to give my dogs a little something special when they are good. So to avoid the costs and to keep the little pups happy, here is my recipe for dog treats. They are so simple, anyone can make them.

To make these doggie biscuits it couldn’t be easier. Plus you will have the added advantage that you will know that the ingredients are only the healthiest things for your dogs. This is why I don’t buy any of the treats in the shops anymore. With this you have my guarantees that your dog will be happy, satisfied and know you love him/her.

I’ve looked at a few dog cook books (yes there are some) and most of them are flour based. You can also use cornmeal and oats for an even more healthy meal for them. Here is mine !

Dog Biscuit Ingredients

150g of flour
250 ml milk
50 g peanut butter
1 tablespoon baking powder
one egg white
(optional) a couple teaspoons of chicken broth for more flavor.

How to make dog biscuits

Put all your dried ingredients in a bowl and mix them
Put your wet ingredients (besides the peanut butter) in a separate bowl and mix them together.
Mix your wet and dry ingredients in one bowl until they are completely blended together
Now add the peanut butter and fold it until it starts to become a dough.
NOTE : if they are too dry and brittle add some more milk, and if it’s wet add some flour.
Put your dough on a baking tray. Preheat the oven to 180 – 190 degrees celcius.
Bake dog treats for 12 minutes or until golden brown.

Extra tip, I generally make 2 batches of these at a time as they will keep for about a month !
