Forum Rules
1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect.
2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff.
3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned.
4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule.

I was wondering if anyone here uses a dehydrator to make treats for their pups?
I need high value treats for rally-o with Orion and he really only loves liver treats and cheese. Cheese (and any dairy) gives him the runs something chronic and decent liver treats are nearly 20 dollars a bag...
So I pulled out the dehydrator last night and sliced up a whole lot of raw liver to see how it would go, so far it absolutely stinks but seems to be working well Smile
Is there anything else that would be good to try?
What are your dogs favorites?

We make our own beef and deer jerky in our dehydrator all the time. Yummy for us and the dogs. We just don't spice the batch for the dogs.

In May I bought a dehydrator for the dogs. I tried the liver and dehydrated myself out of the house. So it went into the garage and we still smelled it in the house. Might try to do it outside next spring. However I buy sweet potatoes and apples all the time and dehydrate them all the time mine love that. I have done strawberries and kiwi and some dogs think those are too sweet some love. I have also done bananas, peach, nectarine, papaya and mango YUM. I took a bunch for after a hike with other dogs and it was a toss up on each item there seemed to be one dog that did not like that items however in general it was a big hit. I keep a gallon baggie of dehydrated in the fridge at all times. I even used it for my self with dehydrating peppers and herbs from the garden this year! It was worth it!

Ours love it. I usually just out a batch in overnight and ignore the smell. Lol

well I've just come back from class and even though the house reeks it was totally worth it! It would seem freshly dehydrated liver is Orion's kryptonite Very Happy  I kid you not over the last hour he executed a flawless rally-o course, his obedience commands were "competition standard" according to our tutor and he ran an agility course off lead on an open field with other dogs round while paying strict attention to me with better recall than any other dog tonight! All for a few measly pieces of stinky liver!! bounce  Time to start dehydrating other things

Colleen do you cook the sweet potato first? He adores banana so I will definitely do that too!
Can I dehydrate other organs? Is it ok to use the dehydrated organ treats as their quota for raw?
