HEALTHY VEGGIE BONES

 

Bark up the right tree with this pawfect recipe.

 

If you are looking for something creative to do

on a long summer afternoon, give this veggie bone recipe a try. Your pup is sure to enjoy munching on this nutritious snack. Remember to count each serving into your four-legged friend’s daily calories to help keep your Wheaten healthy.

 

Ingredients:

3 Cups minced parsley

¼ Cup carrots, chopped very fine

¼ Cup shredded mozzarella or parmesan cheese

2 Tablespoons olive oil

2 ¾ Cups whole wheat flour

2 Tablespoons baking powder

½ to 1 Cup water

 

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350º and lightly grease a large baking sheet.

Stir together parsley, carrots, cheese, and oil. Combine all

the dry ingredients, then add the veggies. Gradually add ½

cup of water, mixing well (the dough should be moist, but

not wet.)

 

Knead for one minute and roll the dough out to ½ inch thickness.

Using a bone shaped cookie cutter or a drinking glass, cut out

shapes and transfer them to the baking sheet. Bake for 20 – 30

minutes or until the dough has browned and hardened slightly.

 

*Remember if your dog has a pre-existing condition, consult your

Veterinarian before adding a new food to your Wheaten’s diet.
