Doggone Good Dog Cookies!!

The need to create these much begged for treats came about because I grew tired of paying upwards of $8 a bag (gasp) for 40 organic treats. I have three dogs, and that does not go far! So, born out of need, and loved by every doggie that has taste tested them, if you say cookie in my house, and there's a dog within earshot, you better bring them one of these becuase this is what they'll be begging for!!

1/3 cup ground flax (great for improving skin condition and coat)
1 1/3 cup wheat flour

3/4 cup oats

pinch of cinnamon

2 tbsp olive oil

1 heaping tbsp smooth peanut butter

1 cup warm water

Mix flax, flour, oats and cinnamon together then add the oil in the center, and then the peanut butter. Add the warm water last, concentrating on letting the water dissolve the peanut butter until it is liquidy (is that a word??) Mix all together until not crumble and a nice soft ball. (Add a little more water if crumbly, and flour if soupy.)

Roll out the dough to about 1/8" or so on a floured surface. Cut with a pizza cutter for simple treat squares or make cute bones or shapes with cutters!

Bake at 350 F for 30-40 minutes (Oven depending) and then turn the oven heat off, and leave to dry in the still warm oven for 30-40 more minutes. (May need to dry longer for bigger cookies) I use a large sized airbake pan and there is no room between them needed while they bake, just pack them on there!

When cool, give some to your pup's and see how much they love the crunchy snacks! This makes a fairly large batch of snacks so enjoy!

**Keeps indefiantly in a sealed container on the counter as no eggs, milk or meat are used

***Great small size for training puppies and dogs. Just wait until puppies are old enough to enjoy the treats
