♪ Guess what we're doing today! ♪
[laughs]
So, Kira turns twelve (12) weeks old tomorrow.
Today we are doing our first 'Gone To The Snow Dogs' treat with Miss Kira!
Yay!
What we are actually making today is DIY training treats for dogs.
This is a very simple, limited ingredients type of treat that we are going to make
and we are going to cut up into little bite size training treats,
so that we can use them to train Kira.
We do have some training videos coming up and we're going to teach you guys
how we use the bell to let the dogs go outside.
Maybe some potty tips, maybe how we teach her to sit.
Different little things like that.
So, it would be fun to do a treat video first and then, going to some of those videos later on.

Let's get to making some treats! Kira's first treat video!
She's like: "I'm gonna..."
Wow! She's going to snuggle with Shelby and Shelby's not going to get up cause there's food on the table.
You are going to figure this out girl!
You are going to figure out real quick that this is the place to be!
So, I have a feeling for a lot of this video since it's her first video, were not going to see a lot of Kira.
I do have my other camera here so I can kind of show you guys what she's doing down here
as she is laying down, she hasn't figured this out yet.
These two (2) girls are like: "Get on with it lady!" "Let's do some treats!"
Alright, so what we're going to do first? Preheat the oven.
Preheat the oven to 350F/180C.
♪ [musical notes] ♪
As I said, this is a very limited ingredient treat recipe.
We're not putting a whole bunch of stuff on it.
Puppies stomachs are pretty sensitive when they are little,
so you don't want to over do it with a lot of wild flavors and things like that.
So, we're going pretty basic here. I'm using my 'Kitchen Aid' mixer to mix everything.
So, the first thing we're going to need is about two thirds (2/3) of a cup of canned pumpkin.
Not 'pie pumpkin,' just regular plain canned pumpkin.
What you think?
Wanna try it? Hold on!
Whoa! Is messy!
Wanna try it?
Let's see if this wakes her up... Oh, hi Kira! How are...
Oh, would you like to try it? Oh man!
Eating from the spoon already, huh? Try again?
Oh my goodness!
Yeah? Is that good?
Now you know what's up? What you think Shelby?
Shelby is like: "I don't know how I feel..." Shelby here, want some pumpkin?
"I don't think so!" Shelby is like: "Nope! Pumpkin needs to be in cookies!"
Well she liked that!
The next thing we are going to add is some peanut butter.
I know some of you guys have allergies and don't want to use peanut butter.
You can just omit it.
Add a little bit more pumpkin and oil, don't use peanut butter if you want to.
You can always modify the recipes any way you would like.
Memphis is like: "I would like peanut butter!"
What you think? I know you'll get up for this!
Oh yeah! Peanut butter, good stuff!
Would you like some peanut butter?
Hold on! Shelby is next, cause she didn't eat pumpkin.
Peanut butter? Yeah! She's like: "Don't fool me with the pumpkin!"
"I would like the peanut butter!" Alright little puppy peanut butter?
Whoa, did you eat it?
You didn't even like stick it to your mouth? Just ate it?
Here, Shelby! Want that one? Oh, peanut butter? Yeah!
How about you Memphis?
Peanut butter? Oh man! Kira?
Kira, Kira?
She's like: "Why is everybody else looking?" Kira?
Come here!
Peanut butter?
Good stuff?
Look how your tongue goes!
Good stuff? Alright!
I think, she likes peanut butter!
Next, we will need one (1) egg already mixed up.
♪ Making a mess! ♪
I can't figure out which bowls had oil in it.
We need about a tablespoon to a little bit more of a tablespoon of coconut cooking oil.
If you only have vegetable oil, you can just use that if you only have some other type of oil,
you can use that, but we're using coconut cooking oil.
Now that we have all the wet ingredients in here together, I'm going ahead and mix them...
♪ [musical tones] ♪ The oven's preheated, I can hear it singing!
I'm going to mix our wet ingredients together just a little bit.
[mixer sounds]
Yeah, I know! I know! We're making treats, it's going to be great!
This is new to you, but...
The next thing we are going to add is about two and a half (2-1/2) cups of whole wheat flour.
Now, I'm choosing to use whole wheat flour for this recipe because I want the treats to be more dense.
I want it to be really like more crunchy and crackling for them.
Wheat isn't bad for dogs, you guys.
I know, some people out there are like... "Wheat is horrible for dogs!"
Moderation is key to everything and wheat is not bad for dogs.
You can also substitute this out if your dog has allergies to wheat.
You can substitute it for all purpose flour, coconut flour or gluten free flour.
We used gluten free flours in a lot of our treats.
Basically just go to 'Google' and do your own conversion
and substitute it out for this flour for whatever you want to use for baking.
So, there's about two and a half (2-1/2) cups of wheat flour in here.
It's all organic wheat flour as well. Wanna try the flour?
Anybody?
Wanna try this?
[laughs]
I'm just kidding!
We are going to pour this in here...
And make a giant mess.
We're really good at making messes when... [blows]
When we make treats... Sorry! We dusted out the camera!
Alright! Let's mix it together!
Oh my goodness! [mixer sounds]
What you think?
Huh? What you think?
Mixing it together and then, we're going to cook it in the oven...
Now, you are fully paying attention! Memphis is like: "This is what we do!"
"Little sister, I'm going to show you" "how to be a professional at making dog treats!"
Then, Shelby is over there!
Once is all mixed together, is going to be like 'Playdoh' consistency.
Is pretty much what you are looking for. You don't want it to stick to your hands.
Will be able to make a nice ball... Would you like to try some raw dough?
Mmmm... Let's see...
Let's see... Would you like a piece?
Oh man!
How about you?
Ready? Nice!
Oh, that's so nice! You are so gentle!
How about you Shelby?
Shelby is like: "Maybe guys... Maybe!"
"Maybe!"
Shelby is concerned about the baby gate that is here.
I know, if you guys watch her during the videos she keeps doing like this head tilt thing?
She doesn't like baby gates.
When Shelby was a puppy, we used baby gates for her.
One of the baby gates fell on Shelby and ever since then, she doesn't like to get near them.
Probably wasn't the best idea for a treat video but it works to keep the puppy (Kira) over here.
[laughs]
Okay, so now I have my baking mat out.
I have my favorite rolling pin in the entire world because you can make this adjustable
and roll things out to the perfect flatness and thickness.
We are going to roll these out a little bit thin today. We're going to do the 1/16 of an inch.
That's what we're going to have cause I wanted them small
cause we're training with treats. When using food you are giving them a lot.
So, you want to be able to make them nice and small.
So, we are going to take and going to put a little bit of flour on the surface.
Actually...
I'm not going to put a little bit of flour on the surface
because is going to roll out pretty easily and this is nice for non stick.
This dough is like... Probably the best dough I've ever mde for any treat video ever.
Good job to us!
We're going to just roll it out.
So, now we have a crooked square and this is definitively crooked.
Hopefully guys, can see it. We're just going to roll it.
Take a pizza cutter and roll it into strips.
So, now that we have the strips and we just roll it this way.
We ended up with little tiny training treats.
I'm going to take these and going to put them on my cookie sheet
and then go ahead and cut the rest of these.
then we'll trow them in the oven.
Once I get my cheap belt (?) I'll show you what it looks like.
I have one pan full.
I'm probably be able to fill at least one more pan.
Now what we're going to do is we're going to put these in the oven for about 25 to 30 minutes
at 350F/180C and then, I'll probably shut the oven off
and let it sit in there for a little bit longer cause I really want them to dry out quite a bit.
That will fim them up and it will be nice and crunchy.
For those of you wondering about storing them?
You can store them in an air tight container.
If you dry them out really well, you can store them in the air tight container out on the counter
for about five (5) to seven (7) days.
Otherwise if you don't think they are dry enough, put them in an air tight container and put them in the fridge.
Should be probably good about two (2) to three (3) weeks.
We're going ahead and pop these 'suckers' in the oven.
What you think?
Where the puppy? Oh, wait! Let's find out!
There's Kira!
She's out!
She's like: "Guys! I'm napping!"
"But smelling all these food" "and napping right here!"
[laughs]
Alright! The treats are all done! They are nice and crunchy!
I let them cool before I put them in this container.
I ended up with about two (2) of these jars.
We're going ahead now and see what they think!
Alright Kira!
You gotta sit!
Sit!
Oh good job!
That's for Kira Shelby!
What you think?
Is it good stuff?
There you go Shelby!
There's the real test!
Shelby likes it!
It's pretty crunchy!
What you think Memphis?
Oh man!! Nice and crunchy!
Since they are so little...
This is for... Shelby, this is for Kira!
Nice!
There you go!
Nice, good crunch!
Huh?
Yeah?
What you think Memphis?
I think those treats are a WIN!
