CUTE!!!

The cookie dough they sell her here (people cookie dough) is in pails-so I dunno I'd assume the same is fine for dog treats. Maybe margarine/yogurt containers repurposed with labels on them?

The bone cookie cutter with the dough idea is great!! I just saw a dog cookie cookbook with a bone cookie cutter-totally saleable Wonderful idea

These are great ideas. I will have to look into that farther. Right now I'm trying not to put too much of my own money into it so she has so much more to donate.

I was talking to my vet yesterdayand found out (I didn't know this) that the two organizations she picked are Corporate Sponsored. So I talked to her about a few organizations that are souly working off of puplic donations and she has decided to switch to one or two of those. Our Companions Domestic Animal Sectuary and possibly Protectors of Animals. I did find out yesterday that I'm supposed to contact the organizations prior to doing the fund raiser. OOPS didn't do that with the first to. OH live and learn and it's not like we did anything bad right?

So right now I think (have to check with them today) she can put a basket of cookies at the Vets office and I can put a basket of cookies at the kennel my friend works at.

Your daughter is very cute!!!

I love the frozen idea. It is very neat however your daughter can prepare all ingredients then package it. She can sell it as "Bake it yourself" healthy cookies.

LOL, That is that one I put on the flyer. I love that one of the two of them. The only other one I love is the two of them in the back yard when I first got him of her petting his belly. That is his favorite possition. I talk to him and her comes the belly. I reach to pet him and here comes the belly. I had to teach him the word up inorder to put flea stuff on him. LOL

It's cookie making day/night. We now have 3 places that are going to put the cookies out for her. The kennel, Our Vet and now Webster Bank. A friend of my husband works there and she talked to the manager of the bank who said they would put out a basket and collect money for her. I need a second oven to keep this up. LOL, it's all good.

Awesome!! Put out feelers everywhere you can-neighbors could sell them at work for you-lots of gas stations and grocery stores will allow fundraising

My only concern putting them in places we don't have people we know and trust is someone will rip her off. I'm not allowed to really "sell" them at work because it isn't supporting one of the "allowed" causes. I work for a Health Insurance company so they mostly support humans. But I have sold them to my co-workers. One of my co-workers even ate his cookies. He said "they were pretty good and I was hungry and they were there." I thought it was pretty funny.

The ones we made tonight ranged in color from light to well it's not exactly burned but close. I'm sure the dogs won't care too much, Can tell they were home made that's for sure. LOL. My husband had oven duty he did pretty good.

Just a little update, things are going well. All 3 locatins need refills so my husband gets to be delivery man today. We made a mas of cookies on Saturday and they are in the freezer downstairs just to make sure they stay fresh. These came out better than the onces on Friday night. I think it's partly to the fact my husband mr inventer went to home depot and bought these metal strips that are flat. He wrapped them in plastic wrap after washing them and secured them to the table. We then have rectangle that the cookie dough gets rolled out in. Makes the cookies the same thickness. Worked out Great! I think the problem the night before is some were thinner than others so cooking time was different.

Will update you on what she has for a total so far after my husband collects it. Should be close to $120.
