the treat-dispensing toy, then fill the toy with chopped celery, green beans, green peas, or your dog’s favorite fruit.
YIELDS: 50 (1") squares
1 pound chicken
3 eggs
1 pound chicken liver, rinsed
Preheat oven to 220°F. Lightly grease two cookie sheets or line with parchment paper.
Add chicken and eggs to a blender or food processor. Add chicken liver to mixture, pouring all juices into mixture. Purée.
Pour mixture in the centers of the two cookie sheets, then bake. After 1 hour, cut each mixture into 1" squares and flip so that all sides of the treats will brown. Bake for 1 more hour.
When treats are browned, turn off the oven but leave the cookie sheets in the heated oven to cool for several hours.
Cool treats completely before serving or refrigerating. Refrigerate or freeze all treats. Refrigerate for 3 days or freeze in an airtight container for up to 6 months.
Hot Dog Training Treats
These treats may not be the ritziest, but for training purposes, you can’t beat these bits of all-American motivation. All-beef or turkey hot dogs are the best choice, and for extra points, you can use organic hot dogs to make these tasty treats.
YIELDS: About 100 training treats
1 package (10) all-beef hot dogs
Slice each hot dog into 10 pieces.
Place hot dog medallions on about six layers of plain paper towels.
Microwave hot dogs on the paper towels for 5 minutes. Cooking times will vary by microwave.
Blot grease from top of hot dogs and turn; microwave for an additional 2–3 minutes. When some hot dogs begin to darken around the edges, they are done.
Cool completely before serving. Refrigerate for 5 days or freeze in an airtight container for up to 6 months.
The Lowdown on Hot Dogs
Hot dogs are powerful motivators for most dogs and are a favorite with many trainers. You can use organic beef or turkey hot dogs, or regular all-beef or turkey hot dogs; regardless of the variety, check that the hot dogs do not include onion powder. It’s true that some hot dogs are made from less-than-desirable animal parts, so look for premium brands made from select cuts.
CHAPTER 9
Stuffers
This section contains treats that can be stuffed into a stuffable toy like a KONG ® to extend the fun of the treat. A natural alternative is to use a hollow marrow bone. Never use a cooked marrow bone; these are far too dry and you’ll run the risk of splintering, which can be dangerous and even deadly if your dog ingests shards of bone. Newer marrow bones that haven’t completely dried out work best for this purpose. If you use a commercial stuffing toy like a KONG ® , be sure to clean it after each treating session. These toys can be washed in the upper rack of the dishwasher so you’re ready for the next treating session; they’re also freezable to make the stuffing last longer.
Pigskin Surprise
Stuff your dog’s favorite treat-dispensing toy with this easy mix. It can also be frozen to last longer.
YIELDS: Fills 1 large KONG ®
1 ounce cream cheese
1 cup plain chicharrónes or pork rinds
1 egg
Using a clean KONG ® or other treat-dispensing toy, plug the small end of the toy with a small portion of the cream cheese. (Other options include peanut butter or soft bread.)
Mix chicharrónes or pork rinds and raw egg in a bowl, breaking rinds slightly so they’re saturated by egg. (If you are concerned about raw eggs, cook to semi-firm consistency and cool before serving.)
Add mixture to toy until filled. Plug larger opening of the toy with remaining cream cheese.
Frozen KONG ®
The rubber KONG ® toy is a favorite with trainers and behaviorists as a way to keep dogs busy and distracted. A frozen KONG ® is a great way to provide a long-lasting treat on a summer day; your dog won’t be able to quickly break the ice with his teeth and will have to resort to licking the treat from the rubber toy.
