Dogs are not the most discriminating eaters. Unlike humans, who may choose not to order a hamburger with the onions or forego the garlic sauce when in close proximity to others, dogs do not care who they might offend with their breath.
Bad breath biscuits for dogs from The Black Pearl Bakery |
An unpleasant result of eating such an awful snack could be an upset stomach, or flatulence.
Whatever the reason, the end result is BAD BREATH! Unfortunately, if you give your dog mouthwash, he is more likely to drink it than gargle. A better solution is to give him charcoal dog biscuits to calm his stomach.
Activated charcoal helps to absorb bacteria from a dog's stomach and control the flatulence and upset. It is sold as a dog food product referred to as charcoal biscuits. The charcoal comes from coconut shells, wood, bamboo and olive pits.
Make your own homemade dog treats using powdered activated charcoal.
Powdered activated charcoal |
Note: Activated charcoal, or activated carbon, is processed in a special way and is NOT the same as the charcoal found in charcoal briquettes used for barbecues.

ReplyDeleteSilly question, but what does "wash it with water before baking" mean?
ReplyDeleteWash the dough with water.
ReplyDeleteI have a recipe that doesn't mention washing the dough. Why do you need to wash the dough?
ReplyDeleteWith my recipe, I do not wash the dough. I'm not sure why it would say that...maybe to get the excess charcoal off? It does kind of fly around everywhere...very messy!
