WELCOME to COOKING FOR DOGS

Summer 2006

by Valerie Sharp

Hello Folks, I can not take credit for these recipes, they came on one

of my Yahoo show dog lists, and I thought hmmm, first because they are great

for showing, which is something that a lot of us are trying to start doing.

However that is not really the reason that I have decided to put them

in the newsletter, the real reason is that some of us, have trouble keeping

weight on young dogs, really active dogs, and on studs while females are in

heat, so these are good for all the reasons listed above. So enjoy and give

them a try, my own dogs loved them, and I am using the Fat Balls to try and

keep weight on my younger males while all my females are in season.

FAT BALLS

Given to me by: Jim White

Great for adding weight!

5 lbs Hamburger

1 Box TOTAL cereal

1 Can(medium) Instant Oatmeal

1 bottle Molasses

1 Dozen Eggs

Half Jar Wheat Germ

1 lb Pork Lard

This recipe makes LOTS of 1" round 2" long balls

Good to freeze and have made ahead of time.

Growing Hair on a Doorknob

Long attributed to Judith Suhr, she just told us: "This recipe is in The Quincy Kennel Club's cookbook and was submitted by Virginia Knocke!"

1 lb. Peanut Butter

1 lb. honey

1 lb. diaglo (powder) or Mirra coat

1 pt. Lavitamin also known as Lixotinic (Can be found at http://www.kvvet.com/)

.

Have peanut butter at room temperature. Mix all ingredients together. This will be very thick and sticky. Stores indefinitely in refrigerator. Make into balls according to size of the dog.

Small dogs should get 1-3 teaspoons daily,

Large dogs should get 1-2 tablespoons daily.

Guaranteed to grow hair-- even on doorknobs. If you can get the doorknobs to eat and digest this--it will grow hair!
