The Doggy Bone Cookbook [With Cookie Cutters]

This is such a great little recipe book for doggy treats. I wasn't sure which one I wanted though so I went to Borders myself and got this one. Sure it doesn't have a 100+ pages of extensive expensive recipes that are boring to look at. This author tested many recipes before narrowing it down to these 12 or so. They are are great and my dog LOVES them. Seriously how many recipes does one dog need for treats anyway?? I also got this book because it is a boardbook, fun to look at, simple and the cookie cutter! It is so nice to have some recipes you can use the cookie cutter for. We even make a yogurt based coating to put on them for gifts to other doggies. It looked so good. I also want to use my Christmas cookie cutters this year to make little doogie treat baskets for our friends with dogs. I highly recommend this book as a gift to kids 5-12 with dog(s) This is a unique gift that I am sure they would like to get. The cookie cutter hangs out of the side - very cute looking. My daughter can't get enough of this book - she even likes to look at the pictures in it and I LOVE that it is a boardbook - it will hold up for years!

This is a wonderful book that every dog owner should have. My dog absolutely loves all of the treats made from the recipes in this book. Even better, these are healthy recipes and my vet says they are just fine. I plan to use these recipes to bake healthy treats as gifts for all of my friends who own dogs. The book itself is also a great gift. I am not an accomplished cook, but found these recipes easy and simple to use.

Although "The Doggy Bone Cookbook" is small, it is jam-packed with quick, easy to make recipes for natural dog biscuits that are sure to please even the most fussiest canine palettes! It even comes with a cute plastic doggy bone cookie cutter. I have already made four surefire hits from this book - Cinnabone, Pea-mutt Butter, Garlicky and Cheese, and Bark-B-Que, and my one-year-old Keeshond gobbles them right up. The ten recipes are easy and quick to assemble (making them quite appropriate for children to make!) and require minimal healthy ingredients for maximum taste. The book also includes helpful tips such as how to cook the biscuits to just the right consistency (something I had had problems with in the past). If you enjoying cooking, and care about feeding your dog foods and treats that contain natural ingredients (with no chemicals, food dyes or preservants), then this book is perfect for you!

Michele Bledsoe's cookbook is such a prize! I've ordered several -- one for myself, and one for a close dog-lovin' friend, who was thrilled with it. I wondered how the biscuits would turn out, and if the dogs would like them.... Well, I was very surprised and pleased to see that the bones looked like the ones professionally made and sold in stores!I couldn't believe that they looked so good, and were so easy to cut. Also, I found that I could roll the batter thinner and make smaller ones for my dog that's on a diet. (The "smaller collar diet bone" has been perfect for him!) And, there's just something so special about seeing a cookie pan full of your pup's favorite bones come out of the oven, while he sits there and drools waiting for them to cool!! I've made bones and given some in gift bags, and the recipients were always so appreciative to get "homemade" snacks for their puppies! The book makes a perfect Christmas gift for those petlover friends on your list! Or, send it to your pet friends to give to their owners...!

Here are the top five reasons why The Doggy Bone Cookbook deserves a rating of 10: 1.- The recipes really WILL please your dog (they are easy and healthy). 2.- If you're too busy, give the book to your son or daughter. Kids love baking these bones as much as dogs love eating them. 3.- I've given The Doggy Bone Cookbook to other dog owners as a gift, and they love it, too. 4.- The book is stain resistant, and the cookie cutter stores right inside the book. 5.- It's a fun read. The recipe names are a riot!
