Just as humans need to eat the right balance of protein, vegetables, and whole grains, so do dogs. But where do we find the time to cook special meals just for our pets when many of us struggle to feed ourselves healthfully? With "The Dog Ate It," thereas no need to prepare separate meals. Developed by an award-winning cookbook writer and a rancher, "The Dog Ate It" is the "first" cookbook with recipes designed for dogs and their owners to savor together, such as:
*Chow Bella Burger Bites, Beef Teriyappi, Sausage Cheese Grits, Growly Good Granola, Beggaras Purses, Cheddar Chomps, Sushi Hand Rolls, Dog-Friendly Salads, Chicken Soup, Adobo Chicken, Good Gravy, Turkey Meatballs, Lamb Shish Kebabs, Canine Kasha, North Carolina Pork Sandwiches, Roasted Pork Chops, Pekingese Duck, Momas Macaroni and Cheese, and more
*Treats and Desserts from the Barkery include: Pumpkin Craisin Muffins, Tarte Tatin, Bowseras Brownies, Carob Ganache, Coco Loco Bites, Counter Surferas Cookies, Banana Mutt Bread, Barking Biscotti, and Peanut Butter Buddy Bones
With good nutrition guidelines for dogs of all sizes, a list of Doggie Diet Dos and Donats, and what foods to have on hand so you can invent your own Fido-friendly recipes, "The Dog Ate It" is perfect for an occasional treat or for every night. Youall learn which commercial dog foods are healthy substitutes for home-cooked grub, and even how to throw the perfect pooch party for Howl-a-Ween, Canine Christmas (Fleas Navidad), or Bowseras birthday.

Few pet parents can resist sneaking table scraps to their pups. "The Dog Ate It" takes this principle to a marvelous new, guilt-free level, with recipes that please the palates of every member ofyour household. BACKCOVER: aWhen I realized that "THE DOG ATE IT" was about meals for bipeds and quadrupeds to share, I feared the worst, namely, that dogs were running the culinary show and that I would be expected not only to cook and eat homework, but to prepare and consume such canine favorites as desiccated pigsa ears and rawhide chew strips, not to mention rabbits, squirrels, chipmunks, and other delicacies so fresh that they were still alive. Fortunately, my fears were unfounded. The recipes in this delectably eccentric cookbook are designed to delight dog lovers as well as the objects of their affection. Highly recommended a
