Homemade Dog Biscuits

Fido Bone Treats

Spare the rod, spoil the dog.

2½ cups flour

¾ cup grits

½ cup shortening

1 tbsp brown sugar

1 egg, slightly beaten

2 cups chicken/beef/pork fat, cooked and ground

Combine 2¼ cups flour, grits and brown sugar and mix well.  Cut in shortening until mixture is crumbly.  Stir in egg and meat fat until moistened; place on floured surface.  Divide dough into 1½ tbsp portions and using your thumb and forefinger, create dog bones.  Place on ungreased cookie sheet and back at 375º 25-30 minutes until crisp. 

I do not know what they taste like, but they smelled real good cooking and the dogs LOVE them.
