Here at The Good Kennel Guide we love treating our furry friends to homemade dog treats. Not only are these recipes fun, quick and easy to make but they are free from preservatives and you know exactly what is in them. Another benefit of making your own tasty dog treats is being able to control the portion size, if you like to give your pooch a few treats over the day then make them smaller, they can also be adapted to suit your dog’s taste and allergies.

Cheesy Chomps

Ingredients

400g oat flour

100g porridge oats

150g mature Cheddar, grated

150g apple, peeled and chopped

2tbsp vegetable oil

Method

Preheat the oven to 180oc

Cook the chopped apple with a little water in a small pan until soft.

Once cooled, mix the stewed apple together with the rest of the ingredients. Add approx. 150ml of cold water and mix to form a dough.

Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface kneading until completely combined. Roll out to approx. 1cm in thickness and cut into shapes using biscuit cutters (bone shaped ones are ideal). Place onto a greased baking tray.

Bake for 15 minutes or until brown. Once cooked turn off the oven and leave the biscuits to harden and go cold in the oven.

Once cold store in an airtight container.
