Everyone meet Sam, the "Meals in a RUFF" mascot.  Sam is my grandma's dog in Thermopolis, Wyoming. Sambo LOVES food, especially his "Chicken Jerky." Then, for his supper Sam likes his food mixed with veggies such as peas, carrots, green beans or even creamed corn.

Your Pet's Photo & Story will be featured right here. Below are some other "Meals in a Ruff" animals.
 
TWO-INGREDIENT DOG TREATS 
 
Ingredients: 
2 Cups 100% Organic Whole Wheat Flour (or wheat germ, spelt, rolled oats - or a mixture of these)
2 (4oz) Jars of Pureed Baby Food (beef, blueberry, sweet potato, chicken, etc)
 
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix ingredients to form a stiff dough. If necessary, add extra flour or water as needed. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough out evenly until it's about 1/4 inch thick. Use cookie cutter to cut into desired shape or a pizza cutter to make cubes. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper, place treats about 1/2 inch apart. Bake for 20-25 minutes.  Allow to cool completely before storing in a paper bag. Storing in an air-tight container will make them soft, but they're still edible. Enjoy..the Meals in a RUFF way.

SOPHIA'S HORSE COOKIES
 
Ingredients:
1 Cup Grated Carrot
1 Cup Grated Apple
1 1/2 Cup Quick Oats
1 T. Molasses
3 T. Vegetable Oil or Applesauce
1 Heavy Pinch of Salt
 
Directions:
Mix in a bowl, press into bottom of greased 9X13 pan or into mini muffin pan. Bake at 325 degrees for 1 hour or until toasty brown. Let cool in pans. Cut into squares or remove from muffin pan.  Store in airtight container for up to 1 week.  Enjoy....the Meals in a RUFF way.

EDIBLE PUPCAKES

Ingredients: 

1 Cup Flour; White or Whole Wheat
1 tsp. Baking Soda
1/4 Cup Peanut Butter
1/4 Cup Vegetable Oil
1 tsp. Vanilla
1/3 Cup Honey
1 Egg
1 Cup Shredded Carrots

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease cupcake tin. This makes between 8-9 average sized cupcakes. Pour all ingredients into a mixing bowl and mix away. Place tablespoon sized amounts into the tin. Bake for about 25-30  minutes. Check half-way by lightly and safely touching the top of the cupcake. It's done when semi-firm to touch. Don't overcook. Let cool a bit and then treat your pet to pieces of a plain one or top with peanut butter and dog treats. You can even place a piece of cheese on top. Keep Refrigerated. This is veterinarian approved. Enjoy..the Meals in a RUFF way.
