From the Back Cover

"When I realized that THE DOG ATE IT was about meals for bipeds and quadrupeds to share, I feared the worst, namely, that dogs were running the culinary show and that I would be expected not only to cook and eat homework, but to prepare and consume such canine favorites as desiccated pigs ears and rawhide chew strips, not to mention rabbits, squirrels, chipmunks, and other delicacies so fresh that they were still alive. Fortunately, my fears were unfounded. The recipes in this delectably eccentric cookbook are designed to delight dog lovers as well as the objects of their affection. Highly recommended!"
Susan Conant, author of GAITS OF HEAVEN and other novels in the Holly Winter series of dog lover s mysteries

Reviews

There are people who bake birthday cakes for their dogs; there are also people who don't stop at the cake, but throw birthday parties for their dogs, complete with hats, gifts, favors and multiple canine celebrants. This cookbook is for them, offering not only Bowser's Birthday Pawty Cake but Party Pup Cakes with Apple and Cheddar, Profiteroles sprinkled with powdered sugar, and an authentically caramelized Tarte Tatin. Simple Sushi Hand Rolls stuffed with ham or crabmeat are another elaborate way to feed a pet, as are Spaghetti Squares with Fresh Mozzarella and Tomato; Italian Tuna Roll; and Sausage Cheese Grits. These recipes, along with most of the others in this book, are entirely human-friendly, but some of them, like Gizzard Stew Made with Love are strictly for the dogs. And no matter how longingly he's staring at the brownies on the counter, the authors make clear that chocolate is an absolute no-no for dogs (as are coffee, avocado, macadamia nuts and onions). So instead, prepare Rover a nice serving of delicious Barking Biscotti and don't be afraid to snag a few for yourself.
