A regular reader of Buzz Pet kindly emailed me the following two recipes for home-made dog food. Not having a dog I cannot vouch for the recipes personally, however I understand that the reader has two Labradors that thoroughly enjoy the home-made treats. And being home-made I have no doubt that they are certainly a preservative-free and lower cost option that the bought varieties. Enjoy!

Fantastic ! Have tried the above two recipes with great success. The only trouble is that the biscuits are so successful its hard to keep up with the baking. Its a good job that my husband is the chef!
