So I washed five sweet potatoes, you can do as many as you'd like. I say the more potatoes, the less frequently you'll be making batches.
Next, you cut the raw potatoes into strips, or for training treats you can dice a few strips.
Bake on a cookie sheet for three to four hours in a 250 degree oven.
Finally, store them in an air tight container! The pups have absolutely loved having the treats in their Kong's! I'm not sure how dogs can tell if they are home made or not, but they've especially loved the home made treats more so than the store bought treats.
Healthy pups are happy pups!

Great idea!!!! You can also make sweet potato fries that same way :) Put them in a bag cut up and put a little olive oil and some cinnamon...bake them...and yummmmmm!
Yeah I was eating some of the dog treats when they came out the oven... sounds great I'll have to try that soon! :)
So the pups are very happy with their sweet potato treats. A caution here...sweet potatoes can make people and animals gassy. Our ladies tend to run to flatulence anyway. Phewyyy! A few treats go a long way but they don't understand that. Elise you should write a blog about Beignet looking around after she farted to see where that smell was coming from! You tell it so well!
