My Dog is Spoiled...

...or at least my husband thinks he is. I'm still convinced that he's only given what a good dog deserves. Cough. 

Actually, he usually ends up with homemade treats because I have the itch to bake that I have not yet satisfied this week, but I don't want to make any more sweets for myself (chocolate bread pudding anyone?). Plus, it's a great way to use up the whole wheat flour in my pantry (just the right amount too!) and the bananas that are ripening far too quickly. Not to mention, my dog is really, REALLY good at the sad pouty eyes. Really good. 

Luckily for me, I just recently bought a dog bone cookie cutter just for this occasion! (See, Jack's not spoiled...) So I internet surfed (ok, I went on Pinterest) and found a recipe my friend Cari had pinned, so I tried it out!

 Not only did he get dog bones, but donuts as well! And nondescript circles

Even I liked them, although if they were for me, I would definitely add some sugar. But I can imagine you could make some yummy biscuits out of this. Anyways, next time I might try adding some Greek yogurt, just to make it my "own recipe" that I can post. I would also like to try an Applesauce Oatmeal version, a pumpkin and turkey version (for Thanksgiving!), and maybe a turkey and cheese version, too. The best part about these is there is nothing in here that us Homo sapiens can't eat, so it makes it easy to test taste, even though it might not be exactly to our liking. I'll keep you posted! Jack really liked these!
