Dental Soft Dog Cookies

Submitted by YummySmellsca

"Those of you in the healthcare industry will know what I mean by "dental soft". These are a remodelled version of my Recipe #471009 recipe, these ones I made smaller and softer for our old mutt who hardly has any teeth left, is chronically constipated and has bad joints! Note for would be bakers: I cut the chilled dough into the pieces and freeze them on baking sheets so that I can bake off as needed. 350F for about 11-12 minutes works from frozen."
