Organic Liver Cake
(use as training aid or as treats)
1lb (500g) organic liver (lamb's or calves')
1 whole organic garlic bulb
6oz (157g) organic jumbo or porage oats
-
Pre-heat oven to gas mark 6 / 200oC / 400oF or use top AGA oven
-
Put all ingredients into food processor and blend until
thoroughly mixed. It should be thick and heavy, not too wet - if too wet,
add a few more oats. Spread into a greased baking tin, to about a ¼ inch thickness and cook for about 15 minutes. It will be just crusty
on the top, but pliable enough to break into pieces easily.
-
Once cooled, break into pieces about two inches square.
These can be frozen and one defrosted each day to give as a treat or to take
in your pocket on your walk or training session.
WARNING: Take care with your fingers, when feeding liver cake, unless
your dog is much politer than Louis!!

Vegetables with Pasta or Rice
(use as a daily food stock)
-
Boil mixed, chopped/sliced
vegetables or potato peelings in water (or vegetable/potato water) until
well-cooked.
-
Add sufficient rice or pasta
to fill the saucepan when swollen.
-
Stir to mix the vegetables
thoroughly with the rice/pasta.
-
Boil until rice/pasta is
well-cooked.
-
Drain off excess water.
-
Stir in olive oil or
sunflower margarine, while warm, to prevent clogging.
-
Cool and refrigerate until
needed.
Proportions can be varied, depending upon your wish to
feed carbohydrate or according to your dog's weight. Bear in mind, dogs
have no need for carbohydrate, so the rice/pasta may be unnecessary.
This will keep for several days, when refrigerated.

Certainly, Salmonella can be a serious problem with UK chickens, which
may not be a problem in Australia. |
