Archive for homemade dog treats

I am opening a website that sells homemade dog treats. I am hoping to be able to package them in advance. Do homemade dog treats expire? Is so how long do they last and how to prevent homemade dog treats from expiring? Any other advise would help too. Thanks
How long will they last frozen?

Freeze them as soon as they cool, and I usually ditch them when they have been thawed for more than a week…which almost NEVER happens in my house. In the summer, my dogs will eat them straight from the freezer.

Hi,
Okay, my friend and I are going to make homemade dog treats and sell them. We need a recipe for them. Please help asap!!!
Thanks much:)
we also would like to decorate them so can you give me a recipe for some kind of edible decoration like frosting for dogs? Please and thank you:)

Peanut butter Dog treats

2 cups whole-wheat flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 cup natural peanut butter
1 cup skim milk

Preheat oven to 375 degrees
In a bowl, combine flour and baking powder. In another bowl, mix peanut butter and milk.
Add wet mixture to dry, and mix well.
Turn out dough on a lightly floured surface and knead. Roll out to 1/4-inch thick and cut out shapes.
Place on a greased baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes or until lightly brown. Cool on a rack and then store in an airtight container.

Makes 30 large dog treats.

These last about a week with my pack. If you are feeding (treating) one dog or small dogs and need them to stay fresh longer than a week they can be dehydrated. Place the cookies on a baking sheet back in a cool oven. Leave the door closed over night for the moisture to be removed. I use my food dehydrator instead of the oven method. They can also be stored in the fridge.
