Hello Guys
I am interested in making some dog biscuits. I find the ones you can buy in the shops are filled with allsort and with christmas coming up I thought people might like some good treats.
I am not a great cook but am willing to try, however some of the recipes are from the USA so I`m not too sure what some ingreients are or if I can get them. You guys are usually so helpfull I thought I`d ask if you could help me.
I would like some basic biscuit recipes for dogs. (meat free and wheat free gratefully accepted)[sm=dogrun.gif]

RE: Home made dog biscuits
They are great Fiona, especially the tuna one, thats what I was looking for.
I assumed you could use wheat free flour ( i have loads for my son) and then I thought it would be adding things like fish pate or something like it. I would make some up but as I said I`m not much of a cook.
I`ll let you know how I get on making them.;)
