If I could figure out how to post a screen shot I could show you. I could go to my main computer and do a screenshot .. anyway I’m thinking out loud here, I’ll wait around and see see if someone smarter than me does it and if not I will figure out how :-)

I love your idea of the cat treats. And dog treats. I’m sure they would prefer 100% meat so that’s better than adding flour and stuff. So how do you do it? And what kind of treats do you find which animal likes best? I might have to buy a dehydrator for this :-)

Dogs like anything. I made some chicken, breasts are the best because if you dehydrate meat you have to use low to no fat meat. I’m also making liver and kidney treats, really good for dogs. If there is a butcher around, you can get organs they toss cheap.
I don’t put cure or salt in the animal treats, so just seal them in airtight containers and keep in refrigerator.
With human jerky, I also use very lean meat, but do put cure or salt so it keeps for about a month in the fridge. Of course most people eat it all way before then .
All this stuff can be frozen airtight too.

Oh and banana chips are easy too.

I think I had told you I dehydrate herbs and stuff like celery too.

And most dogs love sweet potatoes.
