Discover The Best Qualities Of Gourmet Dog Cookies

By Tonia Michael


Dogs are very important to animals to many people. Feeding them well is one of the sign that shows how you love them. For instance, gourmet dog cookies are served to dogs to keep them healthy and are decorated to improve their appearance. With new ways of decorating these foods, one should now start stop feeding your dog with plain cookies.

Try to decorate using cheese since dogs enjoy eating it. Melt it and cover the cookie and shape it in a decorative design. Other adding can be added on top such as meat pieces that will make the dog run to look for the food. One can add other flavors to the cheese to improve the taste. It is important to consider the amount of cheese you give the dog since it can be dangerous. Cheese binds in the stomach and lead to digestion problems.

Fruits can also be a decorative item whereby you first ice a cookie with cheese and stick them on top. Some of the fruits that one can use for this case are strawberries. The other means is by blending a variety of fruits to make a thick juice, which you later use to coat a cookie before frosting. Fruits are very nutritive since they increase appetite to dogs. They color them to appear decorated and make dogs eat the food.

Use of peanut is also good. In this case, one can sandwich cookies using peanut and still add other things like pieces of melon, berries, bananas or chicken meat. Yogurt also helps stick fruits and seeds on a cookie, which is then frosted carefully. It is good to use plain yogurt and not the colored one. This will help the fruits to contract well with the yogurt so that the decorative feature is visible.

Foods sold in the stores contain preservatives so that they can stay for a long time before going stale. However, homemade ones meant for sale or for dogs at home should be stored well so that they stay fresh for a long time. This is because they can make dogs sick when they consume them. It is therefore important to learn ways of storing the food safe to keep the dogs healthy.

After buying from a store, open the container with the food. Unseal the freshness seal and remove the food placing them in another clean home container. Always close the container tightly after use to prevent any bacteria from the air from entering. This will also prevent them from getting out in case the containers falls from where it is placed.

Plastic boxes used to store them are usually essential as it prevent air from entering or getting out of the container. It is for this reason that a cookie remains fresh even after a long period. Glasses and ceramics are also good although they cannot completely seal as plastic does. Lacking these jars should not be a problem as one can still store them in the container they were bought with.

Gourmet dog cookies are best stored in cool, dark and dry place in kitchen shelves. Exposure to direct sunlight can hasten spoiling process; therefore avoid that. The most important of all is to observe the best food for your dog and then make the decision of what to buy. Notify veterinarian about the new food you are introducing to your pet.
