Low Purine Dog Biscuits #2

Submitted By: The Peninsula Humane Society, CA

Recipe:

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1/2 cup cornmeal
2 cups white rice flour
6 Tbsps oil
2/3 cup water

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix all ingredients together well. Roll out
to 1/4 inch thick. Cut into desired shapes with cookie cutter. Bake 35 to
40 minutes. Let cool
and store in tightly sealed container.

Because of the Schnauzer, Dalmatian, and certain other breeds' tendency
toward urinary stone formation, diets and treats low in "purine-yielding
ingredients" are advised. Every attempt has been made to ensure that this
recipe uses relatively low purine ingredients, however I cannot guarantee
that your dog will not have a reaction to these treats, either allergic or
urinary. It is very important to monitor the pH of your dog's urine when
introducing new foods and treats to its diet. The urinary pH should not
deviate from the normal pH of 7.0 if all is well. If you note any
deviation, you should contact your veterinarian immediately for a standard
urinalysis to see if abnormal urinary crystals are forming which can "grow
up" to become obstructing stones, or to detect other urinary problems.
Also keep in mind that these treats should be fed in small amounts and are
not meant to replace a well-balanced diet.
