These two recipes didn't make the "cut"—but provided us with a laugh nonetheless:
So these two farmers were discussing the merits of their respective hunting dogs, when one asks, "so what do you feed your dog?"
"Turnips"
"Turnips? My dog would never eat turnips!"
"Well, mine wouldn't either, the first couple of weeks."
Bah-dah-bump.

I buy skinless boneless chicken breasts and slice them thin then dehydrated them in my dehydrator. The dogs absolutely LOVE them and it cuts the cost several dollars over premade. No preservatives, no toxins, no questions!
I would love it if you developed a Pet section that appeared in the Left Column. I'd also love it if you made all the pet recipes that were sent in available to your readers. Thanks!
 There's a pet section now!  It's to the left under "HOME."
Ok, good recipes, but the dogs in the picture look like they have gorged themselves on a bit too many!! ha - a bit overweight, but maybe they can eat more venison and barley! :D
