Ice Cream for Dessert
icecream100.jpg (5664 bytes)This latest edition of "Dogs who love to eat" series, comes from Don & PJ of Rapid City South Dakota who sent in this picture of Buster. They say, "He is our 2 yr. old Bernese Mountain Dog. His favorite flavor? Ice cream. haha. ANY flavor!!! He knows, if we go through the drive thru at McDonald's for coffee........ ice cream comes out of that window at the end. We are empty nesters, so Buster is definitely our new "addiction"......"

Emma’s Peanut Butter Biscotti
by Emma Spataro
A Basset-American Chef

I just love baking Biscotti in the kitchen! As a Basset-American, I feel that we need to promote the cooking from our culture too. Although we are "opposably-gripped challenged", we can have a full cooking life too! My "thumbed" friend, Eva, has to help me open the refrigerator and turn the knobs on the stove. Anyway, I thought this recipe is really tasty and is great for a midnight snack!

Brutus' Favorite Dog Biscuits
brutusbiscuits100.jpg (4713 bytes)Kayla says, "My dog's name is Brutus. He is a medium sized mixed breed who showed up on our porch about a year and a half ago, when he was around 8 weeks old. It's always a bit of a chance adopting a stray, kind of like a box of chocolates (you never know what you're going to get), but he has been a great dog for us, very obedient and fun. I've attached a picture of him that you can use if you like. I have a dog biscuit recipe that I got from a coworker, I made them for my dog and he seemed to like them (OK, he loved them).
