"The dog represents all that is best in man" ~Etienne Charlet Angel and Ollie are in their glory in the spring. The sunny skies, lush green grass, and little creatures running amuck give these Westies plenty to see and do! We hope you, and all our Westie Tales friends have a funfilled spring & summer season! |

"If a dog's prayers were answered, bones would rain from the sky." ~Proverb Ingredients: Heat oven to 325 degrees. Grease cookie sheets. In a large bowl, combine rolled oats, butter and boiling water and let stand 10 minutes to cook the oats. Stir in cornmeal, sugar, bouillon, milk, cheese and egg and mix well. Lightly spoon flour into measuring cup and level off. Add the flour, one cup at a time, mixing well until a stiff dough forms. On a floured surface, knead in remaining flour until dough is smooth and no longer sticky for 3-4 minutes. Roll or pat out dough to 1/2" thickness. Cut with a bone shaped cookie cutter and place 1" apart on greased cookie sheets. Bake at 325 degrees for 35 to 45 minutes or until golden brown. Cool completely and store covered. Makes 3 1/2 dozen large biscuits or 8 dozen small biscuits. |

"Animals are such agreeable friends-they ask no questions; they pass no criticisms." ~George Eliot My local Humane Society is collecting symbols from various Heinz Pet products to raise money for homeless animals. Look on the back of your pet's Heinz treats to see if they carry the "Save Morris the Cat" or "Homeless Homer" symbols...then cut them out and mail them to: You'll be helping many animals without homes receive shelter and care. Of course, any financial help is also needed. Get involved with your local animal shelters, too; there is always a demand for volunteers and donations...not to mention good homes for the many animals there. Thank you! |
