Product Description

The Good Treats Cookbook for Dogs contains more than 50 recipes for all-natural homemade treats for our canine companions. Although not everyone makes, or even buys, high-end food for their dogs, everyone loves to spoil their dogs with treats. But, The Good Treats Cookbook for Dogs contains far more than simple dog-bone shaped peanut butter treats; it provides instructions for making over-the-top human-grade baked goods such as:

• Liver-Cheese Brownies
• Carob Petits Fours
• Peanut Butter and Cream Cheese Cannolis
• Wheat-Free Liver-and-Herb Biscotti
• Apple Oatmeal Mutt Muffins
• Salmon and Cheese Bon-Bons
• Coconut-Coated Carob-Crunch Truffles
• Apple Cinnamon DuzinÆ Donuts

Unlike other pet books on the market, this book contains full-color photos of all of the treats and adorable photos of dogs doing what dogs do, thinking about food or eating food. This book is as much about the pampered-pooch lifestyle as the baking. The Good Treats Cookbook for Dogs is also the only book that goes beyond biscuits and cookies and contains brownies, bon-bons, biscotti, mini-pizzas, cupcakes, birthday cakes, and more! Also included are special occasion cakes, party tray and gift basket ideas, and tips on throwing the perfect dog party.
