Ingredients
Instructions
- Mix all ingredients together until well combined.

- Cut into dog bone shapes, rectangles, or other desired shapes.

Tips & Substitutions
For a healthier twist, you can substitute half of the whole wheat flour with oat flour, which adds extra fiber. If your pet is sensitive to beef, consider using chicken bouillon granules instead. Ensure the dough is well-kneaded for a better texture. Remember, the thickness of the dough can affect baking time, so adjust accordingly.
