| Farmers Market Sweet Potato Treats Dooie LOVES these!!! He never likes anything....... not even people food (blueberries, apples, carrots) The only thing is that I have to cut them (I use scissors) into "Yorkie bites" http://www.naturalpetwarehouse.com/i...t%20Treats.jpg http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2169/...7c884fa9_o.jpg (Bottom picture is not the actual product but looks very similar)

| I make dehydrated sweet potatoes here at home for the boys. Zeke is so picky he doesn't like anything. But Baxter thinks they are the worlds greatest.

| Both Charlie and Izzie love sweet potatoes.. They are on their best behaviour when they smell me baking them.. They will sit in front of the oven with a perfect show-dog stance and look at me expectantly evry few minutes as if to say "mummy is it done yet??" |

| I just slice them into small bite size portions, spray some olive oil very lightly, bake them at a low temperature. I actually make them for myself, but as the ingredients are all natural I give it to my babies.. I tried using my dehydrator once and left the thinly sliced potatoes overnight. It was a great treat for the dogs, but I can't eat them myself when I'm feeling peckish, as it loses some of the taste.. Plus you can't beat the sight of those adorable sitting in front of the oven, waiting for their treat.. |

| I haven't heard that olive oil is bad for yorkies, in any case i use a very small amount. I use this canned spray, and perhaps at most the sprays would dispense 1/4 of a teaspoon per batch of 3 sweet potatoes. The function is just to "brown" the chips and create a bit of a crunchy bite.. I have tried making them without the olive oil, and they like it fine, but i prefer it with the olive oil.. |
