"dogsli is concerned for years about the quality of food products. Because grandmothers already knew: You are what you eat. This can of course be applied to our dogs too. But what shall our four-legged family members eat? How much? And why? - After getting many questions and even more answers they decided to form their own opition. Countless food samples, a pile of specialist literature and a training course as a nutritional consultant for dogs they realized: Somehow no food suits them or their dogs. Because no two dogs are alike. So why should like eat the same or like the same?
In 2005 they visited a tiny bakery for dog cookies on Cape Cod in NewEngland in order to look for a souvenir for their family dogs. Fascinated by the idea to make dog cookies out of high quality ingredients they were developing their own dog food, dogsli, in meticulous hours of work in the following years. On their side is the greatest critic and sceptic: Because their dog turned out to be a gourmet who does not eat everything that they think is tasteful, good and healthy. Unless it's dogsli. Because for dogsli he leaves behind everything... And here they are! They hope that dogsli convince their customers as well as it has convinced them. And that their customer's dogs like it equally to their gourmet."

(Source: www.dogsli.de/Fuettern/Backmischung-Hundekekse/Backmischung-Rind.html Translated by me)

As the Backing Mixture was a bit too much for me I only used half (350g) of the Backing Mixture.

For the amount of 350g there have to be added 50ml of water and 3 eggs.

All mixed up well.

The bones were made with the dogsli Cookie Cutter 'Bone'. 

 Next to the bones I also made small balls.

Adter about 18 minutes in the oven at 150°C fan oven Rocky's Cookies were done (my oven bakes faster than stated!).

Round Cookies

Bone Cookies

Review: The 700g Backing Mixture by dogsli was for me too big for Rocky which is why I simply halfed the Backing Mixture. The Mixture was very easy to mix and also forming the Cookies was easy. Even though it was stated that the Cookies will take 25-30 minutes in the oven, Rocky's Cookies were done within 18 minutes (my oven bakes somehow faster than others). While baking the Cookies smelled a lot. Rocky loved the smell and did not want to leave the kitchen; for the human nose the smell is however rather repulsive. So I would advice to leave a couple of windows open while baking.
After the Cookies were cooled Rocky was allowed to try them and he loved the self-baked Cookies. A complete success! I will definitely make the other half of the Baking Mixture at a later time.

 
 
dogsli Cookie Cutter 'Bone'


Description of the dogsli Cookie Cutter 'Bone': "The Cookie Cutter "Bone" made out of stainless steel is the perfect addition to the dogsli Backing Mixture.
With 6cm it has the perfect size for bite-sized dog Cookies. And with a hight of 2.5cm even thicker cookies can be cut out without a problem."

     
Review: I think the doglsi Cookie Cutter 'Bone' is really cute and I have even cut out a feed Bone Cookies with it. I personally however thing that it is easier and quicker to form small Cookie Balls. It is nevertheless a cute idea.
