I’ve been taking pictures of so many dogs lately that I thought it was about time I included pictures of one of ours.  It’s Molly’s 4th birthday today and I found a beautiful pink bow to put in her hair.  Actually it’s a stretchy dog collar but I thought it looked rather cute as a headband.  She acquiesced once I bribed her with a homemade peanut butter cookie.  Molly loves those cookies so much I decided to share the recipe here.  Doesn’t she look adorable?

Peanut Butter Dog Cookies
1 cup oats (regular not quick oats)
2 cups flour (rice flour can be used if your dog needs to eat wheat free)
1 cup chunky peanut butter
1 cup water
1 slightly beaten egg
1/4 quarter cup canola oil

Mix together to form slightly sticky ball.  Roll out between two pieces of waxed paper. Cut with  cookie cutter. (I use a 2″ dog bone shaped cookie cutter and make about 36 cookies).  Heat oven to  350 degrees.  Bake on cookie sheet for 20 minutes.  Flip cookies, bake another 20 minutes.  Cool.  Refrigerate – will keep for about 10 days.  I freeze several packs.
