DIY: How to Make Salmon Dog Treats
Editor’s Note: This week we are SO happy to bring you the latest installment in our #TOCDIY series, featuring homemade salmon dog treats! This week’s diy-er is Meg Lucas, a member of our #TOCFam, along with her dog, Teddy (or Ted for short), a 16-month-old Border Terrier (@token.ted on Instagram). Meg told us Ted is, “The most happy-go-lucky dog we've ever met, and we *love* his personality.” Keep scrolling for the easy AND inexpensive salmon treat recipe that Ted loves!

📎 The Supplies You’ll Need to Make Homemade Salmon Dog Treats
One tin of canned salmon* (or any dog-safe canned fish/meat)
One tablespoon of chickpea flour (or any flour of your choice)
A silicone mat (we use a semi-sphere silicone baking mat with indents). Here’s one TOC found on Amazon.*
An oven or dehydrator
*Never feed raw Pacific salmon.
⏰ Time Commitment
Prep time: five minutes
Dehydrating time: three to four hours (don’t worry - you can work on other things at the same time)
✅ Step by Step: How to Cook Your Own Salmon Dog Treats
Mix together salmon and chickpea flour until you have a smooth paste (the texture of a mashed potato).
Smear the paste into your chosen molds.
Dehydrate in an oven or dehydrator for three to four hours at 70°C or 158°F.
Store in an airtight container for one week or freeze in portions.
