I tried the recipe above yesterday. Super easy and the dogs are DIGGING them! FYI the small jars of baby food are 4 ounces each. I filled my fluid measuring cup with 4 ounces of water and it filled four ice cube tray sections. So, if you are making them with your own puree, and using the ice cube tray savings method listed above, you would need 8 thawed cubes.
Also, I used a turkey vegetable dinner selection from the organic baby food section. I figured I'd go with a tried and true meat that I know they like first. Next, I'm going to try apple sauce to see if that works. Pretty cheap in bulk, I use it to cut down on fat anyway, and there's no need to pre-puree. If that's not enough pizazz for the pups, I might try adding a little peanut butter.
In the meantime though, a meat oriented baby food and a little extra flax seed with the wheat germ . . . HUGE hit with the hounds in this house. I'd be interested in any of the experiences you all have.
