Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a large bowl, combine flour, oatmeal, cornmeal, rye kernels, liver powder, garlic powder and salt. Add meat drippings and blend until mixture resembles wet oatmeal.

Blend in the egg and enough of the stock to form a ball. Knead the dough for two minutes, and place on a cutting board dusted with flour. Roll to about 1/2-inch thick.

Cut into rectangle or bone-shaped cookies (if you have a bone-shaped cookie cutter).

Place the biscuits on an well-greased baking sheet. Prick each biscuits with a fork to allow air to vent.

Bake biscuits for 25 to 30 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool completely.


A healthy breakfast isn't just for people any more. These are edible for humans if you have the nerve.

Mr Breakfast would like to thank Mr Breakfast for this recipe.

First off, in defence of garlic, many dog food manufactures add garlic because dogs in fact love the smell of garlic. But that isn't actually why I was writing. I have a student who would like to try and make these for his dog, but we are having a very hard time finding powdered liver. Has anyone made this recipe without the liver powder, or subsituting something else in its' place? Thanking you in advance for your help.

I'm with Nyteflame No garlic, onions or tomatoes for your dog. They should not have spices or salt. The bacon or sausage grease is not a good idea, either. Too Spicy. And never ever feed your dog chocolate or candy. I can't believe how many people do not realize that chocolate and excess sugar can be literally poisonous to dogs to the point of causing diabetes and diabetic coma.

Take care with that garlic. Garlic, onions and related veggies can cause anemia in small animals. A large breed dog would probably handle it just fine, but the smaller the dog, the more you have to watch.
