Thanks to the recommendation of a thoughtful UKC judge, we found this recipe to add calories and nutrition when our dogs need to put
on a little weight or before and during dog shows. It also makes a great training treat
and keeps their coats beautiful! We divide the batch into small patties and
freeze the extras.
