Recipes for Potato Dog Treats

Potato dog treats are a favorite of many canines. And even better, making these delicious gourmet dog treats is pretty easy, even for an amateur baker! A really easy treat (to be fed in moderation, of course) is to make a "doggy cake" of 1 lb of ground beef, about a cup of oatmeal, enough eggs to hold it together (usually around 5 or 6 large fresh eggs), and some chopped veggies. Mix it all together and bake until it's set... and then "frost" it with mashed potatoes.

*** Never feed your dog potato leaves or stems, and cut away any green spots or growths/sprouts on the potato prior to using it. These can contain toxins that are harmful to dogs.
