Thanks for posting the dog treats recipe, I am sure my cat Orlando will love it too. I cook all the food for my dogs, and am always looking for a home cooked dog food recipe. I cook minced beef, grated veges, rice, some vegemite with some water. They would rather eat the same roast dinners as us though.

Anyone else cook up their dog food?

I have some ground millet and some quinoa flour...will have to research to see if dogs are able to eat it....It is supposed to be high in protein and good for people but will have to do some checking first.

You can substitute the wheat flour with brown rice flour if you want.

Although my dog is big, I think I'll cut them small so I can use them as treats without giving him too much extra food. Don't think I'll bother with fancy shapes, though. I doubt he'll know the difference between trees and squares.
