Thanks, I got a dog bone shaped cookie cutter over the summer and now I need recipes. I get tired of trying to read the fine print of what all those treats are made of,and I don't care what a good bargain they are; if they're made in China I will not buy them.

Shadow gets carrots for treats, she loves them, I get her the baby cut carrots. At least that way I know they are good for her, green beans are good for dogs too.

I found out the other evening that Mr. Lucky really loves apples. He begged me so bad I broke down and gave him a piece of the one that I was eating. I had one again the next day & he did the same thing. He really goes bonkers for them. He also begs for oranges, but I don't know if that is god for him or not. I know that grapes & raisins are poison for dogs though.

Apples are ok as long as they don't eat the seeds, grapes and raisens are poisonous, so avoid those. Watermelon, well you may want to avoid that, they can get a really bad case of fiber overdose, I know, it happened to Shadow, it was coming out both ends, cost us over $300.00 at the Animal ER. As far as oranges go, I don't know, they seem like they would be too acidic for them.
