The Doggy Bone Cookbook, Second Edition

Book Description

Mention dog food, and even dogs may turn up their noses. Grim little pellets or mysterious meatlike concoctions need not be the latest trend in canine cuisine, according to author and dog lover Michele Bledsoe. In The Doggy Bone Cookbook, she shows how dog owners, numbering more than 43 million people, can bake love and nutrition into their furry friends’ diet.

This fun book grew out of testing hundreds of recipes. Each book comes with a bone-shaped cookie cutter and easy-to-bake veterinarian-approved recipes ranging from Peamutt Butter, Bark-B-Q, and Cinnabone, to Dig 'n' Cheese, Santa Paws, and Howl About a Mint. New to this edition are recipes for dogs with bad breath and for special birthday treats. Color illustrations appear on every page, and quotes from canine connoisseurs testify to the quality of these tail-wagging snacks.

I Love this book.......2007-08-14

I purchased this book to start my doggy bag barkery business and the biscuits really sell. I recommend this book for anyone starting out in the business. Be careful with the Minty Bones because they mold quickly.

woooftastic!!!.......2007-07-18

very good book though not many recipes (I think about 10) but very simple ingredients and easy to follow instructions. My copy also came with a bone shaped cookie cutter! very good though short and card pages so robust enough for kids etc... my dog loves the peanut biscuits

Great book!.......2007-04-12

I agree with the reviewer 'Sally'. My dog loves EVERY recipe in this book! So while another book may have more recipes... it'll take you a while to sort through it and figure out which ones your dog will enjoy.
Another feature this book has that other books don't is a dog-bone shaped cookie cutter. Not the metal ones which fall apart or hurt my hands, but a sturdy red one that is easy to use and lasts a long time. I bought my first copy in the bookstore. I'm here to buy another one as a gift for a friend!

Great simple and fun doggy treat recipe book........2006-10-08

This is such a great little recipe book for doggy treats. I wasn't sure which one I wanted though so I went to Borders myself and got this one.

Sure it doesn't have a 100+ pages of extensive expensive recipes that are boring to look at. This author tested many recipes before narrowing it down to these 12 or so. They are are great and my dog LOVES them. Seriously how many recipes does one dog need for treats anyway??

I also got this book because it is a boardbook, fun to look at, simple and the cookie cutter! It is so nice to have some recipes you can use the cookie cutter for. We even make a yogurt based coating to put on them for gifts to other doggies. It looked so good. I also want to use my Christmas cookie cutters this year to make little doogie treat baskets for our friends with dogs.

I highly recommend this book as a gift to kids 5-12 with dog(s) This is a unique gift that I am sure they would like to get. The cookie cutter hangs out of the side - very cute looking. My daughter can't get enough of this book - she even likes to look at the pictures in it and I LOVE that it is a boardbook - it will hold up for years!

THIS IS A FUN BOOK FOR ALL DOG LOVER'S!.......2005-12-07

Recipes are easy and fun to bake! My daughter and I loved to make the dog bones and our dog, Picasso, loved (and I mean LOVED!)his homemade treats. We baked up another batch to give to friend's dogs as Christmas presents.
We recommend this book as a gift to yourself or someone else.

It's a hit!.......2007-08-16

My two year old grandson Ben just loves this book. After it's been read to him "just one more time"he takes it to bed with him and reads it to himself until it's time to go to sleep. He is learning how to count, and loves all the doggies in the book. It's the perfect book for toddlers.

Bark for Boynton!.......2007-06-05

I'm pretty much sold on any Boynton Board Book - I've liked them all... this one is an especially fun counting (and barking) book. As usual, there are the wonderful Boynton art and animals (there is a particularly minimal background in this one)

She reinforced the counting with some of the sounds the dogs make (that kids will enjoy making too): "1 dog says Woof", doggie #2 says "ruff ruff", dog #3 whimpers three times, etc... but she doesn't let it get out of hand - 9 dogs howl (together) at the moon... and thankfully, there are quiet dogs on one page:) The repetition is very good for young kids and the ending has one of Boynton's clever 'punch lines' that just make you laugh (even if you are not three years old)

If you've got young kids and love dogs, this book really needs to be on your shelf. If you have young kids, it belongs on your shelf... It also deserves a place on the shelves of the silly joyful dog loving adults who remember the joys of childhood.

My College Kids Favorite Book As Children.......2007-05-12

When my kids were small and because we are pet lovers, this book became an immediate hit in our home. When I saw it again, I had to buy as our original copy disappeared during our several moves.

The book has been shortened and unfortunately each number which used to have it's own page is now sharing with other numbers. I guess this is progress?? We still are happy to have it in our library. It's one of the sweetest learning books I have ever seen or read to my children.

Debra

Lots of fun!!.......2007-05-12

This is my 16 month old's favorite book. MY husband and I get tired of making all the dog sounds, but he doesn't! A cute book!

I can't get over how well this line of books goes with the lessons laid out in Flip Flop Spanish. I used this book after the chapter on counting, and of course my kids already new the word for Dog, so it was just a wonderful reinforcer. What a FUN way to review!

I'm already be recommending it to all my students, and plan to use it in my SPanish class for 3 and 4 year olds this week!

The entire "Busy" series is engaging and fun for kids and parents alike. A great way to introduce your child to books, nature, language.

great book.......2007-08-14

I love this book as well as many others of the series. I have often given these books to new parents and everyone raves about them. Never seen a kid not respond to the book. Incredibly cute.

Masterpiece of the genre!! .......2007-04-12

John Schindel has truly outdone himself with this poignant and profound literary masterpiece! His text is descriptive, poetic and profound - chronicling the activities of his eventful and engaged K-9 subjects. The photography of Beverly Sparks compliments Schindel's unparalleled words of wit and insight as a welcome added bonus to this must-have page-turner! What a book!!

A Hit!.......2006-08-24

Our 9 month old son is currently in LOVE with anything dog related. So, when we opened this book, he got SUPER excited. He will just sit and giggle with the book on his own. We love it. (It also makes me want a dog...)

Great gift-giving book for the pooch lover in your life!.......2006-06-07

Give them this book, and the dogs will be drooling! We use this book constantly for our own dog, and his friends! Recipes are easy, not one dog has complained yet! I do taste test the treats, and wow, very edible and delicious. Any dog would be so lucky to have a human in their life with this book!

Fun book.......2005-02-18

I really enjoy making the recipes in this book and my dog really enjoys eating them (as do the dogs in his obedience class). I have only two issues with the book. First, I don't think that the batch sizes were changed from the original book to accomodate the smaller bone cookie cutter size, because I always end up with many more treats than it says I should have (not that my dog is complaining). Also, there are no recipes for dogs who have corn and wheat allergies as all call for either corn or wheat flour although I'm sure with a little work you could substitute oat or rice flour. All in all a fun and creative book!

Quick, easy to make recipes your dog will love!.......2003-04-11

Although "The Doggy Bone Cookbook" is small, it is jam-packed with quick, easy to make recipes for natural dog biscuits that are sure to please even the most fussiest canine palettes! It even comes with a cute plastic doggy bone cookie cutter. I have already made four surefire hits from this book - Cinnabone, Pea-mutt Butter, Garlicky and Cheese, and Bark-B-Que, and my one-year-old Keeshond gobbles them right up. The ten recipes are easy and quick to assemble (making them quite appropriate for children to make!) and require minimal healthy ingredients for maximum taste. The book also includes helpful tips such as how to cook the biscuits to just the right consistency (something I had had problems with in the past). If you enjoying cooking, and care about feeding your dog foods and treats that contain natural ingredients (with no chemicals, food dyes or preservants), then this book is perfect for you!

Best Doggie(Augie) Treats Goin'.......2002-12-04

What's in store bought dog biscuits? Who knows? No more guessing as we're able to make our own and know just what we're eating. Fun to make and fun to eat.

Traveling Charley loves his home cooked bones.......2002-10-09

Charley is on his second batch of bones. He likes to watch each cookie get cut out and put on the cookie pan. Smart dog knows what the Doggy Bone Cookbook looks like and stations himself below the counter to watch treats from preparation to tasting. Five woofs flavor!

Doggy Dog IS a big cheese in MY book! Our daughter has loved this book since before birth, when we received it in a childbirth class. We started reading it then because we were entranced. At 14 months or so she started grabbing it off the shelf to bring it to us. At 15 months I heard her saying "NO!" emphatically over and over in the other room and came in to see her turning the pages of the book and "reading" it to herself. Since we read it with feeling, she caught on to the "No!" after "Doggy Dog, are you a big cheese?" and says it now whenever we ask the question. We LOVE Doggy Dog!!!!

Anything but flat........2004-07-28

What an amazingly colorful and funky book. We bought it for our three year old after exhausting "Charlie Parker Played Be-Bop", another great book by Raschka. He loved "Doggy Dog" immediately. Our 14 month old brings the book to us at least ten times a day demanding it be read to her. She is absolutely delighted with every page. We love it!

Five Woofs for Doggy Dog!.......2001-07-10

"Doggy Dog, you are not a footstool. You are not a potato." What a gem. My five month old girl laughs and laughs when I read this to her. It's great fun for the whole family.

Book Description

Some doggies are little, others are big, and they're all very friendly in this Mini Movers book. Mini Movers are chunky miniature board books, perfect in size to fit toddlers' tiny hands. Each cleverly designed two-page spread has a delightful sliding feature that is part of the illustration. Kids move it up or down to change a picture into something new. For example, a pink little pig on the left-hand page comes with the words, "This pig is clean." The facing page shows a wooden pigpen and has the caption, "This pig is. . ." When kids slide the pigpen wall up, they discover the pig romping in the mud, accompanied by the word, "dirty." Toddlers will love sliding the pieces back and forth and seeing how different animals act. Simple words, actions, and pictures make these titles fine interactive first books for baby. (Ages 1-4)

Customer Reviews:

My son loves this book!.......2004-06-04

My 16 month old loves this book. It is really sturdy and made for children to make something happen on every other page, by lifting a flap or sliding something. For example the 1st page says this little doggy is sleeping and the second page says this little doggy wants to play, and my son uses his finger to make the dog's tail wag. It is really well done and just the right size for my son to hold the book by himself.

Book Description

Hip-hop megastar Snoop Dogg and award-winning playwright David E. Talbert join forces to bring you the unforgettable saga of an aspiring young rapper who finds himself at several crossroads at once, where everything, including himself, is about to suddenly change.

The year is 1989, Long Beach, California. When Ulysses Jeffries's mother decides to move her family from the drug-infested East Side to what she believes is safer North Long Beach, Ulysses and his little brother Bing are hurled into a world like none they've experienced before. Instead of moving on up, they've just moved on over.

From a classically trained piano-playing gangster named Buddha, to the next-door neighbor, a foster mother turned basehead named Crazy Betty, to Uncle Mike, a freeloading relative who has a knack for showing up when times are good and a knack for leaving just before they turn bad -- these characters and more take you on a journey like never before. With growing conflicts in the streets, and at home with his mother, Bing, and his mother's new live-in boyfriend Harvey, Ulysses is forced to make decisions that will forever alter his life. It's clear that his only chance of survival is through close friends, family, and the music he loves.

Love Don't Live Here No More is the first in a drama-filled series of novels called Doggy Tales that takes readers from the unforgiving streets of Long Beach to the bright lights of show business. The novel also comes with an original single that provides the backdrop to this compelling tale.

Customer Reviews:

Doggy Dog World.......2007-07-15

This book was a quick read, you learn about Ulysses's life living poor with his mother and borther in Long Beach, California. Ulysses looks up to a local pusher and starts selling drugs at and young age. He watches his mother struggle just to get by, He wants to help but don't know how, he has dream of being a rapper but must first learn how to survive. This is Vol. 1 of the Doggy Tales so I must know what will be next.

Not A Page Turner.......2007-06-12

This book was definitely not what i expected. The only thing that kept my attention was the ending cliffhanger. It was a slow read that was a coming of age story. I was not connected to the characters in any way really which was a downside to my reading this book. I may read the second installment of this series but I am not going to rush to buy it. It was an okay read, not anything special. I definitely commend Snoop for starting to co-write books. However, 50's G-Unit books are much better thus far, I would read them 1st before the Doggy Tales' installments.

Love Don't Live Here No More.......2007-03-11

i bought this book not too long ago. it is deffinately an easy read. it is modeled after snoops life. cant wait for the second. :)

Keep moving.......2007-01-02

The book is quite interesting and quick reading. I wonder if the youth of the hip-hop generation will read the book and wonder if this the route they really want to go. There will always be struggles in life which is displayed in the story but it is what you do about it. Do you move in a positive mode or let the situation keep you down and move in negative mode?
I am looking forward to reading more by Snoop Dogg& David E. Talbert.

WHOSE STORY IS IT?.......2006-12-21

I purchased this book three days ago. This story is the story of a single mother that is struggling to raise her sons. This is the typical untrue saying of women cant raise men. One of her sons goes against the grain. Reading this made me wonder if this simply Calvin Brodas biography.

Cute book but very easy to lose pieces.......2003-10-15

While my 20 months old son loves this book, I have to occasionally hide it from him because he gets very frustrated that the shapes pop out too easily and are very hard to put into place. The pieces end up all over the place. Maybe an older kid (4 or 5?) would have an easier time - but they also might find it too babyish.
