The disclosure relates to dog treats and more particularly pertains to a new dog treat for incorporating benefits of elderberry extract into a dog treat.
The prior art relates to dog treats. Known prior art fails to teach incorporation of elderberry extract into a dog treat.
An embodiment of the disclosure meets the needs presented above by generally comprising 45-55% by weight elderberry syrup extract, 15-25% by weight chia seeds, 10-20% by weight oatmeal flour, and 5-15% by weight peanut butter.
There has thus been outlined, rather broadly, the more important features of the disclosure in order that the detailed description thereof that follows may be better understood, and in order that the present contribution to the art may be better appreciated. There are additional features of the disclosure that will be described hereinafter and which will form the subject matter of the claims appended hereto.
The objects of the disclosure, along with the various features of novelty which characterize the disclosure, are pointed out with particularity in the claims annexed to and forming a part of this disclosure.
The disclosure will be better understood and objects other than those set forth above will become apparent when consideration is given to the following detailed description thereof. Such description makes reference to the annexed drawings wherein:
With reference now to the drawing, and in particular to
As best illustrated in
A method 10 of making the elderberry extract dog treats includes an initial step 12 of soaking the chia seeds in the elderberry syrup extract to form a gel. Another step 14 is adding oatmeal flour to the gel. Yet another step 16 is adding the peanut butter to form a mixture. A step 18 is mixing the mixture to form a dough. Step 20 is rolling out the dough. Step 22 is cutting the dough into pieces. Step 24 is poking a hole in each piece to allow moisture to vent from each piece through the hole during a step 26 of baking the pieces for 15 minutes at 375 degrees Fahrenheit. After baking, a step 28 is air drying for at least three hours.
In use, the baked and dried pieces may be fed to a canine as a treat which imparts known advantages of elderberry extract to the canine.
With respect to the above description then, it is to be realized that the optimum dimensional relationships for the parts of an embodiment enabled by the disclosure, to include variations in size, materials, shape, form, function and manner of operation, assembly and use, are deemed readily apparent and obvious to one skilled in the art, and all equivalent relationships to those illustrated in the drawings and described in the specification are intended to be encompassed by an embodiment of the disclosure.
Therefore, the foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the disclosure. Further, since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the disclosure to the exact construction and operation shown and described, and accordingly, all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the disclosure. In this patent document, the word “comprising” is used in its non-limiting sense to mean that items following the word are included, but items not specifically mentioned are not excluded. A reference to an element by the indefinite article “a” does not exclude the possibility that more than one of the element is present, unless the context clearly requires that there be only one of the elements.
