Fish Cookies

[Deborah Brown]

This is my favorite tried and true dog cookie recipe. These I roll out and cut with people shaped cookie cutters for a little irony.  ;)  The recipe makes a lot and I keep them refrigerated since they have no preservatives.

Ingredients: 
1 10 oz can salmon (or mackerel or other fish) 
1/4 cup parsley flakes 
2 cloves minced garlic (natural flea repellent) 
3 eggs (including shells for their coats) 
1/2 cup ground flaxseed (omega 3s) 
2 cups (or more as needed) oat flour - or spelt or other friendly flour

Instructions: 
Preheat oven to 375 F 

Put all ingredients except flour into a mixer until well combined. Add flour until blended and mixture forms into a stiff dough using extra flour as needed. 

Turn out dough onto a lightly floured work surface and kneed for about one minute. Roll out to a thickness of about 1/4". Cut into shapes using a cookie cutter dipped in flour. Place on cookie sheets and bake for 30-40 minutes or until firm and browned.

Nothing better than licking the beaters!

This looks like a good recipe for dogs who have common food sensitivities, too. Love the picture of Charlie & Wayne licking the beaters!

Be aware that your house will smell like fish!  I always refrigerate the cookies since there are no preservatives.  One batch lasts a few weeks since I dole them out one a day.
