Many of you know that I’ve been honing my skills in the kitchen lately, and experimenting with a lot of new recipes — including Rachael Ray’s.
Well, it turns out she has quite a collection of dog-friendly recipes, too!
I haven’t tried any of them myself yet, but I have to say, I think my dog would be quite pudgy if I served up all of the delicious treats that Rachael Ray lists in her Pet Archives!
Dogs & Human Foods
Of course, there are a number of human foods you can give your dog.
Two instances when I give homemade foods to my dog are:
#1 When my dog is sick, and things like rice, baked potato, and bread help calm his stomach. Or things like cheese (or cottage cheese) make pill-taking easier.
#2 When I’m looking for something fun to stuff into his Kong treat toy. Even dogs get bored with the same ‘ol stuff.

I like to help Dog Parents find unique ways to do things that will save time & money — so I write about “outside the box” Dog Tips and Dog Hacks that most wouldn’t think of.
I’m a lifelong dog owner — currently have 2 mixed breed Golden Aussies that we found abandoned on the side of the road as puppies. I’ve always trained my own dogs and help friends train theirs, as well. Professionally, I worked at a vet and have several friends who are veterinarians — whom I consult with regularly. (And just because I love animals so much, I also worked at a Zoo for awhile!) I’ve been sharing my best ideas with others by blogging full-time since 1998 (the same year that Google started… and before the days of Facebook and YouTube).
My daily motivation is to help first-time dog owners be better prepared from the first day your new puppy enters your home. I like to help dog owners understand what’s ‘normal’ and what you can expect in terms of living with and training your dog — how to get through the ups & downs of potty training, chewing, teaching commands, getting your dog to listen, and everything else that takes place during that hectic first year!
When I’m not training, walking, grooming, or making homemade treats for my dogs, you will find me at the corner of Good News & Fun Times as publisher of The Fun Times Guide (32 fun & helpful websites). To date, I’ve written over 600 articles for dog owners on this site! Many of them have upwards of 200K shares.
