Treats - When, Where and How?

Bake dog cookies

Gone are the days when dogs only got treats for doing a command correctly. You should give your dog a treat every now and then, like when you're snuggling up in the living room or when you just got home.

But make sure he doesn't see it as training. For example, avoid regularly giving him treats when you sit at the dinner table. Because every time you sit at the dinner table, he will beg you for treats. And why? Because he has now made the false association between the dining room table and treats. This can be uncomfortable for both of you.

Your loyal friend should also learn that he doesn't only get these treats when he "passes a test" or "obeys" your commands. Reward him with a treat for no reason at all. This will show him that you're really happy for him, not just when he's been "good".

Be careful not to let this bond turn into begging. Never give him a treat if he is begging, jumping up, or barking at you. Don't force him to ask for it, and don't hesitate to give it to him.

Advantages of Homemade Treats

  • Sugar, dyes, attractants, and preservatives found in commercial treats are not found in homemade treats.
  • Ingredients can be varied. This means that dogs with chronic conditions such as allergies, diabetes, etc. can enjoy their snack without worry.
  • You can combine the ingredients according to your dog's taste.
  • You can adjust the size of the snacks to fit your dog's mouth.

Basic Equipment for Baking

Baking dog biscuits at home is a great way to give your four-legged friend a healthy and personalized treat. Whether you're a baking novice or a seasoned chef, the right equipment makes baking a breeze. Here's everything you need to get started.

Kitchen Utensils

  • Mixing bowlsTo mix the ingredients.
  • Hand blender or food processor: For mixing ingredients, especially for doughs that are difficult to mix.
  • Rolling pin: To roll out the dough to the desired thickness.
  • Cookie cutter: For cutting out cookies in fun shapes such like bones, hearts or animals.
  • Baking tray: It is best to line the baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent the cookies from sticking together.
  • Cooling rack: Cool the cookies so they do not get too soft.

Which Ingredients Can I Use and Which Cannot?

Possible ingredients are: Fish, meat, vegetables, fruit, dairy products, nuts, eggs, and grains or flour as a binder. When choosing ingredients, make sure your dog is not allergic to them. For example, if your dog cannot tolerate gluten, use corn or buckwheat flour.

Ingredients for healthy dog cookies:

  • Whole-wheat flour or a grain-free alternative: Whole grain flour is an excellent base for dog biscuits. For grain-free alternatives, try coconut flour, chickpea flour, or buckwheat flour.
  • Eggs: They act as a binder and provide additional protein.
  • Unsweetened applesauce or pureed fruit: They provide natural sweetness and moisture.
  • Natural peanut butter: Make sure it does not contain xylitol, which is toxic to dogs.
  • Meat broth (without onion and garlic) or vegetable broth: Adds flavor and makes the cookies irresistible.
  • Fresh vegetables or fruit: Carrots, apples or pumpkin are healthy ingredients.
  • Oil: A little coconut or olive oil can add extra moisture.

Try different ingredients to see what your dog likes best. Always check which foods are safe for dogs. Know your dog's dietary needs and allergies to avoid ingredients that could harm him.

In general, the foods listed below should be avoided because they are toxic to dogs:

  • Sugar
  • Chocolate
  • Cocoa powder
  • Baking powder
  • Spices
  • Avocado (some varieties contain persin. Not good for the heart muscle)
  • Garlic
  • Onion
  • raw potatoes (give only cooked and without peel)
  • Eggplants
  • Tomatoes
  • Raw legumes
  • Raisins, grapes
Symptoms of poisoning:
Vomiting, diarrhea, mucous membrane inflammation
 

What do I need to know about shelf life and storage?

Whole grain or meatless treats can be refrigerated in a can or box for two to three weeks. Meat snacks will only last a few days and should be fed fresh. They can be stored in the refrigerator.

If you are making larger batches, freeze the treats in portions and thaw as needed.

Proper Storage of Homemade Dog Treats

Homemade dog treats are a wonderful way to provide a healthy and loving reward for your four-legged friend. To keep treats fresh and tasty for as long as possible, proper storage is essential. Learn the best ways to store homemade treats.

1. Choose the Right Ingredients

Before you start baking, make sure you use ingredients that will keep for a long time. Avoid fresh foods that spoil quickly, such as fresh meat or fish, unless you plan to eat the treats quickly or store them in the refrigerator.

2. Allow to Cool

Leave the treats to cool completely after baking. This prevents condensation from forming in the storage container, which promotes mold growth.

3. Dry and Crispy

If you want the treats to last longer, bake them until they are hard and crisp. The lower moisture content in the treats reduces the risk of mold growth.

4. Airtight Containers

Use airtight containers for storage. This will protect the treats from moisture and keep them fresh longer. Glass or metal containers with tight-fitting lids are ideal.

5. Store in a Cool and Dark Place

Store containers in a cool, dark place. Direct sunlight or heat sources can shorten the shelf life of treats. A cupboard in the kitchen away from the oven or other appliances is often a good storage location.

6. Fridge or Freezer for Extra Freshness

Storing treats in the refrigerator or freezer is ideal for treats that contain fresh ingredients or have a long shelf life. Treats can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks and in the freezer for several months.

7. Periodic Inspection

Check the treats regularly for mold or unpleasant odors. If you notice any changes, discard the treats to avoid exposing your dog.

Airtight Storage

Airtight containers can actually help keep treats fresh by protecting them from air, moisture and pests. However, it is important that treats are completely cooled and dry before being sealed in an airtight container.

Moisture in the container, whether from warm treats or high moisture content in the dough itself, can lead to mold growth. Make sure the treats are completely dry.

Treats with higher moisture content are best stored in the refrigerator to prevent mold growth. Consider storing treats in smaller portions so that you only take out what you need for the short term. The rest can be stored in the freezer to maintain freshness.

For more humid snacks or in humid environments, storage that allows for some air circulation or refrigeration may be a better choice.

Tips & Tricks

Choose Your Ingredients Wisely

Watch out for poisonous foods: Some foods that are safe for humans can be toxic to dogs. These include onions, garlic, chocolate, avocados, grapes, raisins, macadamia nuts, and sweeteners such as xylitol.
Use high-quality proteins: Cooked chicken, beef, lamb or fish can be a great source of protein for your treats. Make sure everything is well cooked and easily digestible. Include healthy fats: Omega-3 fatty acids, found in fish or certain vegetable oils such as flaxseed oil, can help support your dog's skin and coat.

Ensure Proper Consistency

The consistency of the treat depends on the baking time. Longer baking times result in harder treats, which can be good for your dog's teeth. Soft treats are great for older dogs or dogs with dental problems.

Be Aware of Allergies and Intolerances

If your dog has a food allergy or intolerance, adjust recipes accordingly. Grain-free or hypoallergenic options may be a good choice.

Portion Sizes

Watch portion size. Homemade treats should supplement your dog's normal diet and should not exceed 10% of his daily caloric needs. Avoid overfeeding! While it may be tempting to give your dog lots of treats, it's important to keep an eye on the total amount of food to avoid obesity.

Long-Term Storage

Well-dried treats have a longer shelf life. You can dry them in the oven at a low temperature for a few hours to extend their shelf life. For longer storage, freeze the treats and thaw as needed.

Watch Your Dog’s Reaction

Watch for allergies or intolerances. Watch how your dog reacts to new treats. Symptoms such as itching, indigestion or lethargy may indicate an intolerance.

    1. Thanks for the great recipes! I would like to try the cookies number is 1 and 2. How long do they keep for?

      1. HUNDEO editorial office

        Dear Anne,
        Whole grain cookies or treats without meat can be kept cool in a tin cookie tin or cardboard box for two to three weeks. Please do not store in an airtight container, as there is a risk of mold. If there is meat in the snacks, they will only keep for a few days and should be fed fresh. You can store them through the days in the refrigerator.

      1. Thanks for the great recipes I love to bake and my dog loves these treats best he likes the ones with cheese and kibble

  1. Hello, very great article! Do you have more recipes that can be prepared without an oven? The peanut butter balls are really top!

    1. HUNDEO editorial office

      Hello Jan. Thanks for the great feedback 🙂
      We are working on new recipes right now. So check back in a few weeks,
      we update most of the posts on our site every few months with new tips and content.
      So be curious - There are more recipes coming soon =)

  2. There are great recipes here. It really makes you want to bake.
    Have recently a dog with diabetes and still little experience.
    What treats could I make from them?

    1. HUNDEO editorial office

      Dear Marina, thank you very much for your contribution. Diabetes is unfortunately an area where you should pay attention, because here not only the content or ingredients play an important role such as sugar, cereals, vegetable by-products, etc, also the calorie intake is particularly important to consider. The sugar level of a dog can vary individually. Therefore, it would be irresponsible or risky to publish here a recipe for dogs with diabetes.

      However, as an alternative solution, you could ask your vet at your next vet appointment what ingredients might even be considered and how many calorie margin you have. Then you can mix these ingredients together and dry them in the oven. The appearance of the treats doesn't have to look great. The main thing is that they are firm and crunchy enough to be chewed. Our loved ones do not pay attention to the appearance. Depending on the ingredients and preparation method, you should also pay attention to the shelf life.

  3. Hey I still want to bake the cookies and especially the ice cream I want to try are cool recipes my dog loves homemade treats hope there are more recipes coming soon ???❤

    1. HUNDEO editorial office

      Hi Alex, we are glad you liked the recipes. As long as your puppy doesn't have any intolerances, you can prepare them for your puppy. You might want to make sure that the treats are not too hard and they should be bite-sized, i.e. smaller. The teeth of puppies or young dogs should not be strained. Please do not forget to deduct the fed treats from the daily food requirement and use them sparingly.

      1. The cookies are great. We made number 5 with tuna and liver sausage and even our cats love them. We will certainly return to these recipes more often.

  4. Super great recipes top info Esta (likes yes viszler) loves every single cookie ! Recommend you guys to others !

  5. Nice recipes, but are there any recipes for dogs with renal failure? That would really help us, since we cook fresh for our treasure anyway. But he should also get treats.

    1. HUNDEO editorial office

      Dear Cindy, unfortunately we do not have any treat recipes for dogs with kidney problems. Perhaps an expert dog nutritionist in your area can help you here.

  6. I wanted to make treats for my dog from cheese and dry food,I wanted to start today because Thursday will be a stressful day and he already has Friday birthday.how long do the treats last? vg

      One cup corresponds to about 120 - 150ml. Converted, this corresponds to about 80 - 100g of flour or 70 - 85g of oatmeal. It is best to use the same cup as a measuring cup.

      1. Great recipes ????Have already tried tuna with carrot drives my dog full drauf ab.Only the recipe with the wet food has not worked out, which are fully melted

        1. Mine from Hundeo

          Dear Tanja, thank you for your feedback. With treat recipes with a wet food, there is unfortunately always the risk that they can melt. This is because every wet food has different jelly and fat content. Therefore, it is advisable to try it with a small amount first. You can regulate the consistency by adding e.g. mashed potatoes or oat flakes.

  7. These biscuits are awesome! My little Jack Russell terrier loves the treats with cottage cheese and liver sausage, and I'm so glad there are so many of these fantastic recipes! ♥

  8. Hello, super informative reports. I found you because I was looking for "make your own dog cookies". Well, I think I'll try the recipe with the wet food, because I have that at home and contains few ingredients. I always have to look good on it what überalldrin is, because my Rhodesian Ridgeback is with his soon 9 years no longer the youngest and something good in the food ( so with 43 kilos rather upper limit) and allergic to pretty much everything !
    I barfed for 6 years and was always thrilled. But for 2 years, he has diarrhea more often and often to fight with unhealthy bacteria. I have now decided to switch to wet food and have found the top favorite for me with the brand: Herrmann's Bio Reinfleisch. What I appreciate most about this brand is that no additives are in it also no wheat, no gluten and no lactose and no exotic fruits, herbs or vegetables, because all this my male dog does not tolerate at all. !
    Since I often fed the semi-soft Lecky's as a reward and wondered that he gains weight or gets problems with the intestine (could be due to the fructose and the "artificial vitamins) I was looking for Knabber stuff (reward or for search games) which has little protein and little fat and of course no wheat. But I have unfortunately found nothing. Not even dry food for seniors and allergy sufferers I have found which completely without exotic ingredients such as berries, tomatoes??? herbs or chemically added vitamins.
    The dry food from Wolfsblut would be an alternative but the fat content is much too high and as a treat it is also not necessary that 20% protein in it. So now I have to make cookies myself using no corn, no rice, no spelt and no cream cheese or cottage cheese. Maybe you have some more suggestions for me regarding cookies????
    Thanks for your feedback.

    1. HUNDEO editorial office

      Dear Sibylle, thank you for your contribution. For dogs with weight problems, treats should be used rather sparingly. The idea of drying the wet food in the oven would be an alternative. However, you can also experiment a bit with the existing recipes by replacing the ingredients given in the recipes with ones that your dog may eat. About tomatoes: As long as tomatoes are very well ripened, they can be fed in moderation.

  9. The Podenko mongrel of my sister loves the treats number 5 (5th treats with liver sausage or beef (gluten-free)) in the liver sausage variant. Since they were virtually baked in the oven but with the liver sausage but still somehow contain meat I wonder how long they are probably durable.

    1. HUNDEO editorial office

      Hello Patrick, whole grain cookies or treats without meat can be stored in a tin cookie tin or cardboard box in a cool place for two to three weeks. Please do not store in an airtight container as there is a risk of mold. If there is meat in the snacks, they will only keep for a few days and should be fed fresh. You can store them through the days in the refrigerator. If baked in larger quantities, they can be frozen in portions in the refrigerator and defrosted as needed (s. What do I have to pay attention to in terms of shelf life and storage?)

  10. Woohoo ,
    Great , extraordinary recipes . Am really excited! Now also wanted to ask again how long you can keep the treats from dry food ??! It was already asked twice, but it always comes only the standard answer.... "if meat is in it a few days!" I can not imagine now, since it is about dry food. That would have to be actually much longer durable, or am I wrong? An answer would be great !
    Thanks for the really great dog cookies of a different kind .
    Love greetings Gabriele
    P.S. Herrmanns dog food is actually really good , I also give raw food ( homemade) and in between Herrmanns , super !

    1. HUNDEO editorial office

      Dear Gabriele, since the recipe also contains cheese, it is better to be safe than sorry and not bake too much. Another alternative would be to keep it frozen. It's best to start with smaller amounts and try it out.

  11. Hello Patrik,

    i am currently trying to dry/bake the wet food at 150 degrees in the oven.
    What is the best way to store it? What is the total shelf life.
    FYI for your diabetic inquiries.....The wet food without carbohydrates, such as venison or duck or whatever pure, is just baked at my place 😉
    For all other diseases, such as pancreas or kidney, converting your own food into treats would certainly make sense.

    1. Mine from Hundeo

      Hello Alice, whole grain cookies or treats without meat can be stored in a tin cookie tin or cardboard box in a cool place for two to three weeks. Please do not store in an airtight container as there is a risk of mold. If there is meat in the snacks, they will only keep for a few days and should be fed fresh. You can store them through the days in the refrigerator. If baked in larger quantities, they can be frozen in portions in the refrigerator and thawed as needed.

  12. I want to try the treats with liver sausage. Is it true that 12 tablespoons of olive oil should go in there? That seems like a bit much to me. Thank you 🙂

  14. Hi,

    My daughter is traveling to Dublin in March and her host family has a diabetic dog with wheat allergy. What treats would be the most suitable, which she can also still take in the luggage.

    Thanks a lot

  15. Hello,
    my question is. Are the treats also for dogs that have problems with the pancreas?
    Greetings Katrin

      Hi Katrin, the recipes are designed for dogs that do not have chronic organ conditions related to digestion. Dogs with a pancreatic condition have difficulty digesting some ingredients, among other things. What these are also depends on which of the enzymes are affected.
