Sweet Potato Treats

danehdee · 09-03-2011, 09:51 PM

Hello!

My pup doesn't too very well with any treats it seems...
Just one or two will upset his stomach so we use kibble for treats, and he loves it.. and it works.

I've made some oatmeal/peanut butter treats in the past that did well... and some oatmeal/sweet potato treats that were good with him.

But I see the sweet potato dried treats in the store and they are a bit pricey, and I don't mind making them - and really want to give it a try!

Does anyone have tips on how to make some sweet potato treats (dried or kept fresh) with skin on in the oven?

Thanks!

We cut ours up and put on olive oil and bake them until soft all the way through. You can also get a dehydrator and make them that way!

Make them yourself! They're cheaper and the prepackaged ones at the store almost always come from China.
