Healthy Dog Treats

I've always enjoyed mixing up some different recipes in the kitchen and with Amos in the house, it was time to find some homemade, healthy options for him. After a stroll down to the local farm market, I gathered some local grains, eggs, and other flavorful items and started up the mixer. Of course the first batch was a little burnt playing around with the bake temp and time, but after a few rounds, the treats came out with Amos's approval.

Amos and I call these treats "Peanut Butter Drops". No added sugar, all natural ingredients, and an aroma that left Amos's mouth drooling, more so than normal. No lie, this is the only treat that he eats instantly (unlike other treats where he hides around the house for a rainy day). The ingredients are all from local farmers including free-range eggs.

Last week I gave a bag of the treats to a colleage at work and she said her dog loved them. Another colleage also inquired about these treats... My hopes is that all dogs can enjoy these high natural fiber and home grown ingredients that support better dog health and the local farming community.

Does anyone else have suggestions for other flavors?
