We’ve really enjoyed this exercise and have all the names for all the Kerry faces in this photo. Before revealing all, we’ll be giving you the chance to guess the names and hope it brings back some fond memories for many!

Some of our dogs go twisting and spinning around for fish and here is a good way of getting your furry friend to eat a healthy snack that they will relish. Remember these are treats and rewards so two or three a day is ample. Children like making this recipe too as its an easy mix and fun cutting out the shapes let alone seeing the results of your fine work!
Ingredients:
1 x 200g tin of salmon or tuna in oil
1 egg, beaten
100g (4oz) flour
Method
Preheat your oven to 180 degrees C (350C/Gas Mark 4) and lightly grease a baking sheet. Put the fish and oil into a mixing bowl and flake it through with a fork. Add the beaten egg stirring well to
combine. Add the flour next and mix together to form a lumpy dough. You can either roll out the dough and use a fish cutter or even a heart cutter, cut up into small squares or roll into little dough balls – lots of option to play around with. Place the shapes onto the baking sheet and bake in the oven for approximately 20 minutes – it will depend on the size of your biscuits – so keep an eye until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from oven, allow to cool and you can store them in a sealed container in the fridge for approximately 2 weeks.
This is a lovely treat recipe that is very healthy for your dog and virtually fat free!
Most dogs loves apples in all varieties and this is a good low-fat treat you can feed yours without worrying about putting weight! And they’re naturally sweet, so these treats make a nice change from the usual savoury ones.
Ingredients
Apples – you can use any variety of apple but please do check that they are not bruised
Method
Preheat your oven to 160 degrees C (325 F). Peel and core the apples and slice into rings. Place the rings on a baking sheet and put into the oven to bake for about 6 hours. They should be dry and ‘leathery’ when they are done, rather than crispy (there’s nothing wrong with them being crispy we just prefer then leathery). The more moisture you take out of them, the longer they will keep. They will keep for 2 – 4 weeks in an airtight container depending on how dry they are. You can cook the apples faster on a higher heat but you must keep an eye on them as they tend to burn quickly which is not what you want at all.
We’re all looking forward to Crufts at the NEC in March. Kerry Blue Terrier day is Sunday.
