Tuffy has a tough life

Sometimes you just need a little nap on a sunny afternoon.

Tuffy enjoying a warm Poolside Sunbath












Tuffy does not like to swim in the pool or the ocean. Tuffy only likes his bath. It is a great day for Tuffy when he has a good warm bath, a little sunshine and a clean fresh bed. As soon as his clean bed is ready he will jump in and roll and roll while roaring with delight.

Easy to Make Applesauce Cookies

Yummy Applesauce Cookies

Ingredients:
2 1/3 cups flour -- all-purpose or whole wheat
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup applesauce
1/2 cup grated cheese -- like parmesan or goat cheese
1 large egg
1 teaspoon garlic powder or fresh chopped garlic
1/4 cup powdered milk -- non-fat



Instructions:
Combine all ingredients in a large bowl; mix well; Roll the dough out to size of a cookie sheet; Pat the dough onto a lightly greased cookie sheet, bringing it to the edges. Using a sharp knife or a pizza cutter, cut desired sizes into dough (just score through). If you're using as training treats, cut them into small pieces; Sprinkle a little extra cheese and garlic powder if desired on dough for flavor. Bake in a 350 degree oven about 15 minutes until golden brown. Turn off the oven and let cool for a few hours; They will keep hardening the longer you leave them. Break them apart; store tightly covered or in the freezer.

Favorite Cookie Recipe

My Scotties' Favorite Cookies

This was not my original recipe as I have modified it to suite us.

2 C Raw carrots
1/4 C Chopped raw garlic (I am very generous with the garlic)
Two eggs (I use shell and all for the extra calcium)
Process in food processor until smooth and blended.

2 C Whole wheat or rice or rye flour
1/4 C Fresh wheat germ
1 C Rolled oats

Blend and add the moist ingredients and mix until smooth. Form into a ball and roll out on a floured board. Cut into bars or shapes. For a glossy finish, brush with egg whites before baking. Bake at 300 degrees for 45 minutes or to desired crunchiness.

You can depend on having a kitchen floor covered with patient Scotties.
