| SHARON'S AKC YORKSHIRE TERRIER PUPPIES (Contact Us) "The reason a dog has so many friends, is that he wags his tail isntead of his tongue!" A SIMPLE HOME MADE YORKSHIRE TERRIER FOOD RECIPE 1 boiled chicken, meat removed from the bones 2 cups of cooked brown rice 2 cups of boiled vegetables (carrots, beans, peas, corn) 1/4 cup unsalted chicken broth (water from the boiling process) 1/4 cup cottage cheese Mix all ingredients together and refrigerate. This will last 3-4 days in the fridge and then should be thrown out, so depending on the size of your Yorkie, you may wish to increase or decrease the proportions. In addition, your Yorkie should be getting a supplement that includes amino acids and fatty acids which your vet should be able to recommend. This supplement is added to the food just before feeding, not in the refrigerated batch. Warm food up to room temperature before feeding it to your Yorkie. NOTE: If you feel your Yorkie is underweight, you can boil a potato, cut into tiny pieces and mix with your recipe. It's ideal to have your Yorkie a little bit overweight then underweight. If these little guys get sick, they drop weight quickly and all kinds of other problems can occur. PEANUT BUTTER TREATS Most Yorkies absolutely love peanut butter, (I know I do!) however, there is a lot of sugar in most commercial peanut butter. If your Yorkie is having trouble losing weight and is diabetic, use unsweetened peanut butter available at a health food store. Do not use artificial sweeteners in the biscuits as these products are very bad for your Yorkies health. 1/2 cup skim milk 1/2 cup peanut butter either smooth or chunky variety 1/2 tablespoon baking powder 1 cup whole wheat flour Mix completely until a thick dough forms. Add a slight amount of water if needed to make the dough stick together. Roll out to a 1/4 inch thickness on a floured surface and cut with a cookie cutter or a knife into the desired shapes. Bake at 375F for about 15 minutes, however these cookies will scorch easily so check at about the 10 minute mark to see exactly how long they will take. (You and your dog can now enjoy a biscuit together! Yes...you can take a bite!) MEATY TREATS For an extra good job a highly nutritious meat snack may be just what your Yorkie needs. These snacks can be made in any shape desired, many hobby stores and kitchen stores now sell small bone shape cookie cutters, ideal for making your snacks look just like store bought. If you don't want to take the time to cut them out, just cut into squares with a knife after rolling and before baking. 1 pound raw liver, chopped fine or run through the food processor 1 1/2 pounds of whole grain flour 8 oz. of slow cooking quaker oats, uncooked 3 low sodium beef bullion cubes 1 cup warm water 2 eggs Mix the oats and flour together, then add the bullion dissolved in the water. Add the eggs and processed or chopped liver and mix until a sticky dough is formed. Small amounts of additional water may be required. Roll or pat out on a floured surface, then dip the cookie cutter in the flour to make the shapes if desired. Bake on a greased cookie sheet for one hour at 350 degrees. If the biscuit or cookies are very thin less time will be needed for baking, so chefs will need to use their own judgement a bit on the actual cooking time. Cookies should be crispy all the way through. Store in a sealed container in a dry location. (Go ahead, take a bite!) Making your own Yorkie treats is a great way to save money using typical items in your pantry. There are many different sites on the internet as well as books and recipes on home made Yorkie treats. Be careful to only use high quality ingredients and avoid using processed and bleached flours and try to stick to whole grains, fresh meats and avoid adding artificial preservatives or flavors. (sounds like our own doctors advise for us!) In many recipes bullion cubes and liquid can be replaced by home made beef or chicken stock that can easily be made by simply boiling chicken or beef bones along with carrots, beans and other root vegetables in plain water. Simmer for several hours then strain the liquid and save the stock. Stock can easily be frozen in one cup measures in freezer bags or plastic containers and just taken out to thaw when needed. It is important to keep in mind that Yorkies, unlike cats, are not just carnivores. Yorkies are actually omnivores, which means they need to eat a variety of food types including meats, fruits, vegetables and even grains. All of these foods are digestible and necessary for the health of the Yorkie, although not all forms of these foods are equal. I give my yorkies apples, but remember, you must cut these pieces very tiny, you don't want them to choke. They love not only apples, but go crazy for watermelon, cut up carrots, green beans and so much more! One more item I recommend is adding omega 3 fatty acids to your dog food, you can find this in your health food store. It's the same type that we use for our health. Great for their heart as well as their coats! YORKIE BREATH BUSTERS After all that eating, you and I know that our little dogs can use a breath mint every now and then! There are home made treats that can be used to help control bad breath. These treats usually contain a variety of natural herbs that can help alleviate the cause of the odor, however brushing the Yorkies teeth on a regular basis and having their teeth checked by a vet is also important if bad breath is an issue. BASIC RECIPE FOR SWEETENING THEIR BREATH 1 cup brown rice flour 1/2 tablespoon activated charcoal (available at a drug or health food store) 1 1/2 tablespoon canola oil 1/4 cup chopped parsley, fresh 1/4 cup chopped fresh mint 1 egg 1/3 cup low fat milk Mix all ingredients together until moist and combined. Preheat oven to 400F and drop the batter onto a greased cookie sheet by the teaspoon. Place each cookie about an inch apart and bake for 15 minutes. Take out of the oven, cool on a cookie rack and store at room temperature in a sealed container.
