Oso (chocolate lab) says Thanks!

I just aquired a year old male Chocolate Lab, "Oso".
While brewing this weekend, I noticed he really took to the spent grain bag.

So I tried to make the dog treats listed on here. HOLY COW!!!! He's absolutely positively without a doubt CRAZY about them.

Good and bad, he loved them so much he didn't want to chase a tennis ball yesterday because he smelled them in my jacket pocket. I had to go put them back in the house.

My wife loves it because they're way cheaper than store-bought treats!


Thanks for sharing that recipie!

I make these treats every other brew as well. I also have a chocolate lab that loves them! Just make sure you dont make any treats that might have hops in the mash.

Link to the recipe?

Interesting. Your dog has the same name as a microbrewery in Stevens Point, WI. I always wondered what the name meant.

Oso means "bear" in spanish.

I heard it can mean "foolish" or a "joker" in slang terms also.

He is both. A BEAR and a bit FOOLISH!!!!
Sorry, I didn't post the link originally.

We named him from the cartoon: "Special Agent Oso" we had no idea it meant "bear" until a friend of ours told us. My kids love that cartoon. The shelter had named him "Romeo". SWMBO just couldn't bring herself to stand on the front porch calling: "Romeo, Romeo....." Especially since she already had me!

i think i'm gonna try this with my dog

LOL, now THAT's funny!

I make those treats often for my two dogs. They love them. All I have to say is " beer cookies" and they come running.

With a few changes i would eat them.
