PET TREATS: FRUIT AND VEGETABLE TREATS

We humans love to eat, and of course our K-9 crews do too! Here is a simple recipe for a homemade treat to satisfy your pup…

Ingredients:

1 medium banana 1 cup carrots, minced ½ cup unsweetened applesauce 2 cups whole wheat flour (white if your dog has allergies) 1 cup rolled oats 1/3 cup water 1 sweet potato

Directions:

Cook the sweet potato in the microwave until the inside is soft. Cool. Preheat oven to 350.

Mash the banana & sweet potato in a large mixing bowl until smooth. Add carrots, flour and oats. Slowly adding the applesauce and water while mixing.

The ingredients will form a soft dough. Roll the dough on to a lightly floured surface until the dough is 1/8 inch thick.

Cut the dough into shapes.

Cook on a baking sheet for 25 minutes. Store leftover treats in refrigerator for up to two weeks.
