Dogs are part of the family too, so why not treat them to these special homemade Chicken & Wild Rice Dog Biscuits.

Treat your furry friend to these homemade Chicken and Wild Rice Dog Biscuits. They're easy to make a great way to utilize leftover roasted chicken. 

Chicken and Wild Rice Dog Biscuits

Today is Take Your Dog to Work Day and since I've never experimented with making my own dog biscuits before, today seemed like as good a day as any to try my hand at these Chicken & Wild Rice Biscuits; especially since my two dogs come to work with me every day.

We have two Shih Tzu's, Tebow (age 3 ½) and Koda (8 months). Tebow loves when I experiment with new recipes during the week and follows me everywhere.

The kitchen; where all of the cooking takes place, the living room; where I photograph my food in the large bay window as it has the best natural light in the house.

He likes to just sit and watch and then into the dining room; where I have my pseudo-office. He likes to hop up on the chair next to me to keep me company while I'm editing photos and writing posts like these.

Koda is still too little yet, so he just follows Tebow around everywhere he goes and is still trying to learn the ropes. I almost trip over him 10 times a day as he likes to be in the middle of all of the action.

Growing up I only had one dog when I was about 4 or 5 years old; then my next dog wasn't until we had Casey; a Llaso Apso who passed away last Fall at the age of 12.

One thing I've learned since then is that dogs are truly part of your family and since I like to create family friendly meals, I thought it was about time I made something special for our four legged "children".

 I decided to go with these Chicken & Wild Rice Biscuits since the food they eat is also chicken and wild rice. I didn't want to give them ingredients they were unfamiliar with; especially the puppy.

These Chicken & Wild Rice Dog Biscuits were so easy to make and are prepared with natural ingredients like chicken, wild rice, flour, salt, chicken broth and eggs.

How do you make Chicken & Wild Rice Dog Biscuits?

Start off by boiling a piece of boneless chicken breast and making wild rice; then allowed them to cool. You can do this a day ahead and keep refrigerated until ready to use.

Puree the chicken and rice with some chicken stock in a mini food processor or blender Add flour, salt, egg and pureed chicken and rice to a bowl and mix well; then roll out the dough on a lightly floured board until ½-inch thick.

I purchased these dog bone cookie cutters from Amazon, but you can use any cookie cutter or glass to cut out the biscuits.

Once you cut out the shapes, bake for about 30 minutes; then allow to harden. You can store these in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 6 months (allow 10-20 minutes for them to defrost before serving).

My dogs L.O.V.E.D. these Chicken and Wild Rice Dog Biscuits and I like how easy they were to make at home; not to mention they contain ingredients that you can pronounce.

This batch made 32 bones and I used the 3.5" bone cutter, but will probably use a smaller size next time as they were a little big for my two little "boys". I hope your furry friends like these Chicken & Wild Rice Dog Biscuits as much as ours did. ~Enjoy!

Dogs are part of the family too, so why not treat them to these special homemade Chicken & Wild Rice Dog Biscuits.

As we all know, our pets like to get into anything and everything we could possibly drop on the floor.

How can you protect your pets from toxic foods?

  1. Grapes, Raisins, Currants-Can cause kidney failure
  2. Caffeine (coffee, tea, soda)-Can cause death in small dogs
  3. Chocolate and Cocoa-The darker the chocolate, the more dangerous.
  4. Xylitol (sugar free gum, sugar substitutes)-Can cause liver damage and drop in blood pressure.
  5. Onions, Garlic, Chives, Leeks-Can cause red blood cell destruction
  6. Yeast Bread Dough-Unbaked dough as in rolls, bread can cause illness in dogs
  7. Alcohol-Can cause life threatening toxicity
  8. Corn Cobs-Can cause an obstruction

Dogs are part of the family too, so why not treat them to these special homemade Chicken & Wild Rice Dog Biscuits.

There are many foods that are acceptable for dogs to consume. Here are some healthy foods to feed your pets. Tebow is a popcorn fiend. I usually pop mine on top of the stove and as soon as he hears the jar of kernels, he comes running!

  • Apples
  • Peas
  • Green beans
  • Popcorn (Hold the butter and salt!)
  • Carrots
  • Sweet potatoes
  • Zucchini and summer squash
  • Winter squash
  • Ice chips (Freeze cubes of diluted beef or chicken broth for a real frozen treat!)
  • Lettuces
  • Blueberries

    Do these need to be refrigerated? Or just froze if keeping them for an extended amount of time?

    Can I omit the salt in this recipe for dog biscuits? My dog has a sensitive stomach.

      It should be fine if you omit the salt.

    I tried your recipe, but I had modified it a bit. I used roast chicken from what was left and I boiled the bones in water to make the broth. I used rice flour instead of the all-purpose flour, added three eggs and no salt. The biscuits smell so good and tasted like the roasted chicken we had. Our dogs loved it! Thank you for sharing your recipe, we will probably store them in an airtight container in the fridge for preservation. This is by far the best and healthiest recipe, so many store bought treats have caused intestinal issues for our dogs. So thanks a million.

    Do these treats keep longer than one week if they are stored in an air-tight container in the fridge? I am wanting to make a big batch for my friends & family, but I don't want them to mold before I can give them out to everyone!

      If you're going to store them longer than 1 week, I'd put them in the freezer to ensure they are fresh.

    Fun tip: since valentines day is approaching, I boiled some beets and added a little to make them red. I also cut them into little heart shapes. They turned out super good. Also, beets are good for a dog's health (in moderation of course)

    Could you please tell me how much shredded chicken you would use in a cup measurement.
    I’m in the uk and am struggling to convert the 6oz chicken breast into grams. Would this be 54g or 170g?

      It would be 54g.

      I don't see why not, but the cooking time may vary slightly depending on the size of your mold.

    Thanks for the response. Next question... You said they can keep for a week in an air tight container. Do they need to be in the fridge or is on the counter okay?

    Hello,
    Made these today and our dogs, Kevin and Bacon (Yes, these are their names) loved them. 🙂 How many of these can I feed them in a day? One is a Kevin is a jack russell/chihuahua mix and Bacon is a Maltipoo. Thanks!

      I'm so glad they liked them! I'm sorry, but I'm not sure how many they can have a day as every pet is different. We have Shih Tzu (25 and 11 lbs) and I only give them 1-2 treats per day or they wouldn't eat their food. I'd check with your vet to be on the safe side.
