Our Favorite Dog Biscuit Recipe

The other day Dresden's breath was so awful that she nearly knocked me over. I later went to check in on a friend's puppy, Buckshot, to find that his breath was worse than Dresden's. Since both dogs just love giving kisses, I realized it was time to pull out my dog's favorite dog biscuit recipes.

This dog biscuit recipe contains fresh mint so it is a great breath freshener. And it really, works. It's also a great project for you and your kids on a rainy afternoon.

Berry's Favorite Breath-Mint Biscuits
2 cups whole wheat flour
1 tablespoon charcoal (available at your local health food store)
2 egg whites, lightly beaten
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
½ cup chopped parsley
1/3 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
2/3 cup skim milk


Preheat oven to 400° F. Combine flour, salt, and charcoal. In a medium bowl, combine egg, oil, parsley, and mint; mix well. Slowly, stir in the flour mixture; then add enough milk to make a cookie dough consistency. Drop heaping tablespoons of dough about 1 inch apart onto greased baking sheets. Bake 15 minutes, or until firm and lightly browned. Store cooled biscuits in a tightly covered container in the refrigerator. Makes about 24 biscuits.
