I have another recipe for dog treats that I like to make. It's an extra-special one just for my beloved Jasmine, she who haveth the most rank breath in all the land. Meg may overall stink more, but since she can't reach her butt, her breath is surprisingly fresh and, dare I say, pleasant for what it is. Jasmine, on the other hand, can knock you out with one little sigh.

If organic makes you happy, then by all means, shop organic. Just don't expect the dog to appreciate it.

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 cup water
2 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 cup oatmeal
1/3 cup chopped fresh mint
1/3 cup chopped dried parsley (look for it in the spice section)

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. In a large bowl, combine oil and water. Gradually add flour until the dough is the consistency of Play-Doh. Then add oatmeal, mint, and parsley. Roll dough to 1/4 inch thickness. Cut with a cookie cutter. Place on a an ungreased cookie sheet 1 inch apart and back at 375 degrees for 35 minutes, or until the bottoms are slightly browned.
