We only get to see her occasionally, but we truly love her like an additional family member. Tom is definitely a big ol' softie. Thank you so much for watching our video and have a very Merry Christmas!
@@comesitatmytable9044 I take care of my mom full time so she gets to see her "grand fur child" I got a 14 year old Yorkie that plays with her 14 year old Chihuahua.. We rescued them from a family so they love getting to live with each-other again....
We all fell in love with her so fast our heads were spinning. She has greatly blessed our lives. Thank you very much for being at our table. Merry Christmas!
We are glad you liked our recipe. It’s fun having our fur babies as part of the family. She is loved like another family member. We've gotten so attached to her all these years. Thank you so much for being at our table with us.
I just made them. They are beautiful. Almost want to try them myself. However, I did sneak my dog a treat ahead of Christmas. I doubled the recipe to give to my neighbor’s dogs. Merry Christmas and God’s continued blessings 🙏 Issaquah, WA 🇺🇸
Tom,now you knew you were never gonna make that pup leave,and trust me they know exactly who makes the decisions and those big beautiful eyes will get you every single time…oh course echo was one in a million,ThanksTom,and your beautiful partner✨🎄✨🎁🎁🎄☃️
I wish I could hear that dogs thoughts while Tom lovingly explains all that we need to know to make these sweet treats. I bet it sounds a lot like this…”come on dad!!! Stop talking and let’s get to the treats!!” 😂😂😂 I tease, but seriously, I almost caught a tear listening to you talk about how much you care for Echo. Thank you for sharing this with us 😊❤️
Dogs are a great blessing and they teach us many life lessons as well. Tom and Melissa, I can tell you thoroughly enjoy having Echo in your lives and this video was so sweet. The homemade doggie biscuits are way better than the processed store bought ones in the box that can sit on your shelf for 13 years or longer! And Echo really enjoyed her treat, so nice job Grandma and Grandpa lol! ❤
What a sweet and obedient pupper! Feel free to do more of these videos. We love dogs. Have a blessed weekend and enjoy the dog sitting. You can tell Echo loves you.
Echo is the best dog and is so easy to love. We appreciate your sweet words of encouragement, and we love having you at the table with us. Merry Christmas!
They truly do feel like our family. We love Echo and miss her so much when we go a long time not seeing her. I hope your fur babies give these treats a stamp of approval. Merry Christmas!
@@comesitatmytable9044 oh, I’m sure they will! They are spoiled, rotten little girls, and I think they will love these. We’re sure going to find out.😂 Merry Christmas! 🎄🦴🐾🐾
I really loved this episode. Echo is adorable. I think of my fur baby as my sweet girl. Like you, I didn't want another dog but when my little girl was born, she would come up to me and of course I picked her up and petted her. I would put her back down to go play with her brothers and she would come right back to me. From that moment on, she was mine. She is fourteen years old and I couldn't imagine a life without her. Thanks for sharing. God blesd
Thank you so much for the kind words. We really do appreciate that you are at the table with us. We hope you and your fur baby have a very Merry Christmas!
Echo is so absolutely adorable. She has a BIG bark, but she is so much a people person, I mean people dog! We are glad you enjoyed the video and we appreciate that you are at our table. Merry Christmas!
What a sweet story about Echo, i have a story also - back in the 90s my daughter worked at taco bell and one night she took the trash out and heard a kitty crying in the dumpster, she got in and some horrible person had put that baby kitten in a trash bag and threw him in dumpster...well she brought it home and hid it in her room for 2 days and we didnt know about it until she finally confessed to us and we named it taco...oh he was the best cat we could ask for, if we actually wanted a cat...but i did tell my daughter dont ever try that again...lol....🐈🐈
I had a chiwawa,her name was gracie,the girl that gave her to me said she was trouble,and gave her to me,all that little fur baby needed was a loveing home she was 6 mos.when I got her she was a blue a rare chiwawa the vet told me.she went where ever I went,she past away several years ago,I still miss her very much,I live alone and she was my comfort.
Taco was so fortunate to be blessed and to find a loving home! I don't understand how people abuse innocent animals. Gracie sounds like she was a wonderful companion to you Patricia. What a blessing she was all those years. We appreciate so much that you all watched our channel and that you are at our table with us.
Echo is such a sweet girl. Loved when you gave her a kiss Tom. I don't have a dog but have lots of doggie nieces and nephews whom I love very much. I might make them all some of these special treats. Thank you for the recipe. I have 2 cats and we call their treats cookies. You better believe they know what cookie is. lol
I have no doubts that they do. We don't say "treat" if we aren't going to give her one right away and we don't say "go" unless we are ready to leave because she gets impatient with a delay! 😊 They are very smart!
If you are a pet owner, they are just a part of your family and you don't want to leave them out, especially at Christmas time! We appreciate that you are at the table with us. Merry Christmas!
When I heard that story of Echo sleeping in the chair with you I cried like a baby. Beautiful story. You’re wonderful people. God bless you and yours!!
Oh she did Jonathan. It took a matter of a few minutes and she was never going to leave us. Now, Echo feels like a member of our family and we look forward to all our visits with her. Thanks to everyone for watching our video and we wish you and your fur babies a very Merry Christmas!
We fell for her hard and fast and we feel like she's an important part of our family now. Thank you so much for watching and for being at our table this holiday season. Merry Christmas!
What a sweet girl, my dog is also 13. They become like family don’t they. Thanks for sharing this with us. You’re a softie Tom. But who isn’t with our children. God Bless You.
We fell hard and fast for her that first night. No question about it - she was ours and we do feel like she's part of our family. Thank you so much for watching and we hope your sweet girl enjoys this recipe.
That pup is precious . I make about the same recipe only often I put mine in the air frier and I use baby food apple sauce and banana and also other bay food flavors …. I left mine on counter in a container and they do mold quick I’d say keep in refrigerator always . Merry Christmas!!!
We have frozen what was left after her visit for Christmas time and then we will send the rest home with her. But without all the preservatives in store bought treats, they will break down quicker. Thank you so much for watching our channel and we wish you a very Merry Christmas.
She was this little ball of fur on top of his chest when I got up the next morning. They were both snoozing in the recliner. Without a word of conversation, I knew she was staying. 😊
I knew once I got up the next morning and found them on the recliner, tiny little Echo curled up on his chest, that she was forever home. I don't think there was ever any more conversation about her not staying.
We will try to add Miss Echo into the lineup again in 2025. She is a definite star, at least in our opinion. Thank you so much for watching our channel and we wish you a very Merry Christmas!
I gave my niece a cookbook for dogs for her bridal shower. She loved it! I’ll have to add this recipe to it! Love Echo, she is so pretty and such a good dog! Give her some hugs from me!
She is the most loving dog, and we are so grateful to have had her all these years. Thank you so much for watching our channel and we wish you a very Merry Christmas!
Sometimes these inadvertent adoptions make for a wonderful experience. I fell in love with a stray kitten while waiting for the shelter to open over a weekend, and although I never even knew a cat before, my Olive Oyl was an absolute joy! Thanks for this heart warming video!❤
Echo’s story made me teary eyed! I love it. My name is Katie and I also snuck my first dog in. My mom was going to let her stay the night in the garage after a friend had to get rid of her, but I brought her into my room. That was my Lady. ❤ I’m going to make these cookies for my current pup, Duncan.
THANKS FOR THE ECHO GIGGLES. Perfect. 🥲 Love the story. I'll be making these treats for my two dogs AND SAVE MONEY by not buying store-bought. THANK YOU BOTH! 😊
Great story Tom and Melissa, such a nice treat for our four legged friends and family members. Echo is such a great pet and family member. Stay safe and keep up the fantastic recipes. Fred.
Thank you, Fred. When I found Tom the next morning with little, tiny Echo curled up on his chest, I knew the discussion about her staying or going was never going to happen. She was forever home from that moment on. We love having you at the table with us and we wish you a very Merry Christmas.
Ahhh Tom, you made me cry 🥲Echo is just lovely! Senior dogs are such blessings with their sugar-frosted faces and loving sweetness...we lost our 15 year old Jack Russell in Feb of this year - I'll save this recipe for when we're ready to bring home another pup! ❤
This is the sweetest thing. This is just another reason why we love y’all so much. Echo you’re a lucky girl or blessed girl. Tom you made me cry because I could see how much you love the doggie. I don’t have one right now. Our Tennessee Walker crossed the Rainbow Bridge a few years ago.
I worked for the same state agency for 30 years. During the major holidays in the year, a company would show up and hold a Book Fair. We could do all the shopping we wanted throughout the day they showed up. On one of the Book Fairs I found "Cookbook For Dogs." All of the recipes are things in my kitchen. I learned from that book that commercial dog food wasn't necessary unless I wanted to buy it. Thank you for taking the time to do a recipe for a beloved pet.
You are very welcome. I love your story about how you found the cookbook for dogs and we really do appreciate that you are watching our channel and that you are going to make these doggie treats this weekend. Merry Christmas!
LOVE, LOVE this heartwarming story!! I’m a dog lover so I totally understand! My daughter used to make gourmet doggie treats for The Doggie Bag in Destin when she lived there. People would eat them ! She also mailed them to people. ❤❤She’s in Miami now and doesn’t do it anymore. She used carob chips in hers and they are okay for dogs. She even made doggie birthday cakes! I think she wore out her Kitchen Aid mixer back in the day!
How adorable! Echo patiently waited. But, if she could speak...I think she would say: please stop talking and give me my yummy treat! She certainly new PawPaw was fixing her, a special treat! The ingredients were well thought out and Tom, you are just amazing! Blessed family!❤❤❤
Good girl Echo!! Dad's always "try'" to be tough, then those eyes get 'em Everytime!! She looks like she definitely loves her Grandpa, and her yummy treats! I will try this one for my 10 year old shepherd mix. I too brought her home unexpectedly 10 years ago. My best friend ❤
It took a matter of minutes, LITERALLY, once he had his hands on her and she was home forever. I don't think we ever even had another discussion about her leaving. Now, she's just part of our family.
Tom just an FYI Jif does have a Natural peanut butter. I make my dogs their favorite recipe: 3 ripe bananas Lg container of plain Greek yogurt 1 cup Jif Natural peanut butter Blend all ingredients with a mixer. Pour into ice cube trays and freeze. My dogs love these treats. Happy Holidays Judy Hoffer from Ligonier Pa.
We are thrilled the buckeyes came out well and we hope Ralphie loves the doggie treats as much as Echo does. Thank you so much for watching our channel and have a very Merry Christmas!
She is definitely interested in what you are doing! Thank you Tom and Melissa for putting a video out with a treat for our furbabies! Boux (my yellow lab - pronounced like roux, lol!) is watching this video as intently as I am! Can't wait to make this treat for him!🐕🐾❤
Absolutely loved this video. As a dog owner of 2 small dogs, Yorkie & Shih Tzu, I love seeing treats that are good for our dogs. I also have an older dog that needs softer treats and these would be perfect for her. Give Echo a big hug for sharing with us. I loved the story about how Echo came to be a permanent family member.
She wiggled her way into Tom's heart without even trying. He was a goner I think the minute he picked her up to take her outside during the night. When I found her asleep on his chest the next morning, I knew she was staying forever. I sure hope your dogs love this treat like Echo does. Merry Christmas to you all!
Brought a happy tear to my eye and memories of my own dog. We were moving into our first home in the middle of a cold Ohio January 30 yrs ago. My friends had a black Lab come onto their porch that they let in from out of the cold but couldn't keep because they were renting with no pets allowed. They asked us if we would keep him until they had time to put flyers up and hopefully find the owner or a home for the dog. I was not happy but agree and said, for only 3 days tops. After 1 day we fell in love with Riley, and he was our son and our children's brother for his entire 18 years of life. He was the best dog our young family could ever ask for and the best gift that was given to us!
Tom we had a baby would have loved them we lost her the day before Thanksgiving to see the love you have for her is the best. going to keep this you never know who might come into my life.thank you so much for letting us in your life.
I am so sorry about your heartbreaking loss right before the Thanksgiving holiday. I know that was so hard for you. But you are right. Another little blessing might be waiting for you at your local shelter right now! Thank you so much for sharing our table and we wish you a very Merry Christmas!
Good Evening Mr. Tom & Mrs. Melissa, This video made me cry Happy Tears hearing the story of ECHO!!!❤️ Thank y'all so very much for sharing this Beautiful Story about ECHO with us !!! She's ADORABLE!!!
We couldn't agree more that she is adorable. She has been such a blessing to us all these years and Tom resisted her staying until he picked her up during the night to take her outside. When I found her asleep on his chest the next morning, I knew she had him wrapped around her little paw.
My guess is that as soon as Tom picked her up during the night to take her outside, it was all over. When I found them asleep on the recliner the next morning, Echo curled into a little ball on his chest, I knew the discussion about returning her was never going to happen. 😊
Our Fur Babies Our our family member and it Warms my Heart to see how much love ❤️ Someone has , September 30th I had to put my 13teen year old Unlicensed Therapy Puppy to Sleep and it has been so hard to Morn him being gone and I love your Fur grand she is Special
I'm so sorry about the loss of your 13-year-old friend. It truly leaves a big old hole in your heart. What a blessing he was to you for all those years. They do, indeed, become additional family members. Thank you for sharing your story with us. Perhaps Santa has another little pup that needs to be loved that you might be able to adopt. Dogs are such wonderful companions. I'm praying for you to be comforted with sweet memories of your time with him.
@ Thank you for Your kind words and Your Compliment Tom and Melissa I find joy when I watch your Clean Cooking videos and I watch the Old Videos that pop up sometimes 😊😊
Oh my!!! Echo has stolen my heart!!!!! What a precious video!!!! I am a dog, fanatic so naturally this video scores a definite A+++++++ for you guys!!!!! It made me cry happy tears and there is no better feeling than this for me!!!!! Tom, thank you for being a softie 13 years ago!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🐶💝
I knew when I found them asleep on the recliner the next morning, Echo curled up on his chest, that she was staying forever. No need to even discuss it. We really appreciate that you are at the table with us for this series. Merry Christmas.
What a beautiful story. Echo sure has a loving family. I’m going to make this recipe for the holidays to give to our fur friends. We were gifted a precious shih tzu three years ago. We love her to pieces but she is rather a picky eater. I sure hope she will love those treats! Merry Christmas Melissa, Tom and Echo!
We sure hope your shih tzu enjoys these as much as Echo does. But I have to admit that Echo is not a picky eater. She just absolutely loves food - she fits in well with our family! Thank you so much for watching our channel and joining us at the table. Merry Christmas!
Tom you brought tears to my eyes. You have climbed way higher on my like scale. I love and miss our Dutch the Dachshund every day. He was the love of my life!
I'm so sorry about Dutch. It is a tremendous loss for us when they pass. But they bring us so much joy, so we have to focus on the blessing of the memories we have with them. We appreciate so much your kind words and that you are joining us at the table. Merry Christmas!
Tom, and melissa you are both such loving people. Our doggies are such wonderful, and loyal friends to us. Soooo very glad echo won your heart that night, tom. And melissa that was a great idea, to have echo stay that first night. Anyway, I'm going to make these wonderful treats for our wonderful doggie, bella!!! Merry christmas to all, and to all a good night!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ❤️, ohio.
This is going to be my favorite video of all time! Poor echo, she was thinking grandpa stop talking so much and give me my treat. Our little Lacey has to say the blessing if she wants her greeny at night. She has to sit while I say God bless mommy God bless daddy thank you Jesus for my Greenie,,Amen and then she’s ready to eat.
Thank you so much for the kind words. Echo is a great dog and such a blessing to us all. We really appreciate that you are at the table with us. Merry Christmas.
Thank you for watching and we hope Finn loves these treats as much as Echo does. Dogs capture such a special and permanent place in our hearts. Bodi, Merry Christmas to you and your family and fur babies!
Oh guys what a wonderful idea. Of course treats for our pets is high priority as they are family members. Our cat Lucy love Salmon so we make patties for her during the holidays as a treat. One time only as wild salmon is expensive but its her Christmas gift from the family. Lucy is 20 years old and still healthy. We all love her and she gives us such joy. Keeping Echo was probably the best decision you ever made. Old softie ...bless you and Melissa.
Once I found them asleep together the next morning, I knew I'd never hear any more about her going back. Our girls were in school, and I had not yet retired but Tom had and was home all day with her and they became big buddies very fast! She had him wrapped around her little paw in record time. We wish you and Miss Lucy a wonderful holiday season. I love that she gets wild salmon at Christmas. It's a perfect gift. Merry Christmas to you and yours!
I feel head over heels in love with her in the snap of my fingers. When she snuggled into me in my recliner, it was all over! Even though she’s Katie‘s dog, I still claim her as mine.
I love this. When Tom bent down and kissed her on the head after saying what a good girl she is. I cried😢. I just love people that love animals. God bless you both and Katie and Echo. I make all of my girl, Delia’s treats. She love them. Merry Christmas Tom and Melissa. 😘
Tom has exposed himself as being a big ol’ softie. We all love our dogs AND grand dogs, so thanks for including them
We only get to see her occasionally, but we truly love her like an additional family member. Tom is definitely a big ol' softie. Thank you so much for watching our video and have a very Merry Christmas!
Some of us have grandfather Oscar
❤😊
I'm actually cooking a chicken breast for my granddog right now!
@@comesitatmytable9044 I take care of my mom full time so she gets to see her "grand fur child" I got a 14 year old Yorkie that plays with her 14 year old Chihuahua.. We rescued them from a family so they love getting to live with each-other again....
Oh Susan, you're an "ol softie", too! 😊
Echo waited so patiently. Such a sweet girl. ❤️🙏🌷🍀
She was very excited to get her treat, though. Katie has done a great job training her to be well behaved. She's such a sweet dog.
There's not anything more special than having a sweet furbaby in your life.
Tom, I knew you were a great big teddy bear! That is such a sweet story!
He fell hard and fast for Miss Echo! She is so loved.
She is a sweetie. (Echo) Thank you Melissa for having him wait until morning to take her back. Echo is very blessed.
We all fell in love with her so fast our heads were spinning. She has greatly blessed our lives. Thank you very much for being at our table. Merry Christmas!

Echo is a good girl, and I'm glad to know my Bandit isn't the only dog that turns the water works on waiting for treats!!
She was patient but she REALLY wanted one of those treats. Okay. Two doggie treats! It's too hard to say no to her!
I wish I could hear that dogs thoughts while Tom lovingly explains all that we need to know to make these sweet treats. I bet it sounds a lot like this…”come on dad!!! Stop talking and let’s get to the treats!!” 😂😂😂 I tease, but seriously, I almost caught a tear listening to you talk about how much you care for Echo. Thank you for sharing this with us 😊❤️

It doesn't take long for them to work their way right into our hearts.
Echo is spoiled at Grandma and Grandpa's house. How neat to have your grand doggy with you.
When I heard that story of Echo sleeping in the chair with you I cried like a baby. Beautiful story. You’re wonderful people. God bless you and yours!!

I did too! 😭😭😊
I had such a big smirk on my face like "Yep all rapped up around her paw, that pup have a forever home"

Echo’s story made me teary eyed! I love it. My name is Katie and I also snuck my first dog in. My mom was going to let her stay the night in the garage after a friend had to get rid of her, but I brought her into my room. That was my Lady. ❤
I’m going to make these cookies for my current pup, Duncan.
Me too 🙄 dog gone dog luv 😆
THANKS FOR THE ECHO GIGGLES. Perfect. 🥲 Love the story. I'll be making these treats for my two dogs AND SAVE MONEY by not buying store-bought. THANK YOU BOTH! 😊
I love how y’all talk to each other
Thank you. We really do appreciate so much that you are at our table. Have a very Merry Christmas!
I have two big dogs and have always wanted to make them treats! Thank you and my Abby and Dobby thank you! Echo is so sweet
We hope Abby and Dobby enjoy the treats like Echo did. Merry Christmas to you all!
@ thank you and Merry Christmas to y’all
Great story Tom and Melissa, such a nice treat for our four legged friends and family members. Echo is such a great pet and family member. Stay safe and keep up the fantastic recipes. Fred.
Thank you, Fred. When I found Tom the next morning with little, tiny Echo curled up on his chest, I knew the discussion about her staying or going was never going to happen. She was forever home from that moment on. We love having you at the table with us and we wish you a very Merry Christmas.
Ahhh Tom, you made me cry 🥲Echo is just lovely! Senior dogs are such blessings with their sugar-frosted faces and loving sweetness...we lost our 15 year old Jack Russell in Feb of this year - I'll save this recipe for when we're ready to bring home another pup! ❤
Love this story so much.Tomis a soft hearted man Praise God.Echo is just a joy.thanks for sharing this.
She has truly been a blessing to everyone who has met her. She is a real people person. I mean people dog. 😊
Awwww…. Love this! I’m making these right now! Echo is beautiful! Thank you Tom and Melissa!
We hope your fur babies love this as much as Echo does. Thank you for the kind words and for watching our channel. Merry Christmas!
This is the sweetest thing. This is just another reason why we love y’all so much. Echo you’re a lucky girl or blessed girl. Tom you made me cry because I could see how much you love the doggie. I don’t have one right now. Our Tennessee Walker crossed the Rainbow Bridge a few years ago.
I worked for the same state agency for 30 years. During the major holidays in the year, a company would show up and hold a Book Fair. We could do all the shopping we wanted throughout the day they showed up. On one of the Book Fairs I found "Cookbook For Dogs." All of the recipes are things in my kitchen. I learned from that book that commercial dog food wasn't necessary unless I wanted to buy it. Thank you for taking the time to do a recipe for a beloved pet.
You are very welcome. I love your story about how you found the cookbook for dogs and we really do appreciate that you are watching our channel and that you are going to make these doggie treats this weekend. Merry Christmas!
LOVE, LOVE this heartwarming story!! I’m a dog lover so I totally understand! My daughter used to make gourmet doggie treats for The Doggie Bag in Destin when she lived there. People would eat them ! She also mailed them to people. ❤❤She’s in Miami now and doesn’t do it anymore. She used carob chips in hers and they are okay for dogs. She even made doggie birthday cakes! I think she wore out her Kitchen Aid mixer back in the day!
Carob chips would be a fun addition to these treats! Sounds like your daughter made some amazing things.
@@comesitatmytable9044she really did , she’s a talented lady! Now she is into growing beautiful orchids.. I’m jealous! Haha
She has a really great touch I can tell. Merry Christmas to you all!
How adorable! Echo patiently waited. But, if she could speak...I think she would say: please stop talking and give me my yummy treat! She certainly new PawPaw was fixing her, a special treat! The ingredients were well thought out and Tom, you are just amazing! Blessed family!❤❤❤
Thank you so much for watching our channel and for your sweet words. Merry Christmas!
@comesitatmytable9044 Merry Christmas to you and yours!
Thank you. I miss my fur baby. Echo is beautiful and obviously well loved.
I'm sorry for your loss of your fur baby. We really appreciate that you are watching our channel. Merry Christmas!
she is a beautiful dog
Good girl Echo!! Dad's always "try'" to be tough, then those eyes get 'em Everytime!! She looks like she definitely loves her Grandpa, and her yummy treats! I will try this one for my 10 year old shepherd mix. I too brought her home unexpectedly 10 years ago. My best friend ❤
It took a matter of minutes, LITERALLY, once he had his hands on her and she was home forever. I don't think we ever even had another discussion about her leaving. Now, she's just part of our family.
Echo is a lucky girl and she's living her best life in this video 🤩🤩🤩 Dogs are ultra special beings💖🌟💖
So sweet you included your fur baby
She is a true blessing to our family. Merry Christmas to you all!
Amazing dog treats I would even eat this I did eat dog treats when I was Little
Tom just an FYI Jif does have a Natural peanut butter. I make my dogs their favorite recipe:
3 ripe bananas
Lg container of plain Greek yogurt
1 cup Jif Natural peanut butter
Blend all ingredients with a mixer. Pour into ice cube trays and freeze.
My dogs love these treats.
Happy Holidays

Hi Tom and Melissa! My Buckeyes turned out wonderfully. Now, I will make these for Ralphie, my chihuahua mini pinscher!❤ Ralphie LOVES pumpkin.
We are thrilled the buckeyes came out well and we hope Ralphie loves the doggie treats as much as Echo does. Thank you so much for watching our channel and have a very Merry Christmas!
The ladies and the puppy had you cornered off ! 😂❤❤❤
Echo is a beautiful dog I love dogs
She is definitely interested in what you are doing! Thank you Tom and Melissa for putting a video out with a treat for our furbabies! Boux (my yellow lab - pronounced like roux, lol!) is watching this video as intently as I am! Can't wait to make this treat for him!🐕🐾❤
Aww, please give Boux a big hug and kiss for us. We hope Boux enjoys the doggie treats! Merry Christmas!
We're so glad that you and Boux are enjoying the video. We hope Boux enjoys the treats! Merry Christmas!
What a precious story. Thanks for including one for our fur babies. I will be making these tomorrow.
We hope your pet loves these like Echo does. Merry Christmas to you both!
Awwww God Bless Echo....
Thank you so much for watching our channel. We appreciate your kind words.
Absolutely loved this video. As a dog owner of 2 small dogs, Yorkie & Shih Tzu, I love seeing treats that are good for our dogs. I also have an older dog that needs softer treats and these would be perfect for her. Give Echo a big hug for sharing with us. I loved the story about how Echo came to be a permanent family member.
She wiggled her way into Tom's heart without even trying. He was a goner I think the minute he picked her up to take her outside during the night. When I found her asleep on his chest the next morning, I knew she was staying forever. I sure hope your dogs love this treat like Echo does. Merry Christmas to you all!
Brought a happy tear to my eye and memories of my own dog. We were moving into our first home in the middle of a cold Ohio January 30 yrs ago. My friends had a black Lab come onto their porch that they let in from out of the cold but couldn't keep because they were renting with no pets allowed. They asked us if we would keep him until they had time to put flyers up and hopefully find the owner or a home for the dog. I was not happy but agree and said, for only 3 days tops. After 1 day we fell in love with Riley, and he was our son and our children's brother for his entire 18 years of life. He was the best dog our young family could ever ask for and the best gift that was given to us!
I live this and tge story behind Echo. She was looking at that peanut butter and licking her lips. Thank you so much Tom and Melissa for this recipe.
Tom we had a baby would have loved them we lost her the day before Thanksgiving to see the love you have for her is the best. going to keep this you never know who might come into my life.thank you so much for letting us in your life.
I am so sorry about your heartbreaking loss right before the Thanksgiving holiday. I know that was so hard for you. But you are right. Another little blessing might be waiting for you at your local shelter right now! Thank you so much for sharing our table and we wish you a very Merry Christmas!
Good Evening Mr. Tom & Mrs. Melissa, This video made me cry Happy Tears hearing the story of ECHO!!!❤️ Thank y'all so very much for sharing this Beautiful Story about ECHO with us !!! She's ADORABLE!!!
We couldn't agree more that she is adorable. She has been such a blessing to us all these years and Tom resisted her staying until he picked her up during the night to take her outside. When I found her asleep on his chest the next morning, I knew she had him wrapped around her little paw.
Echo...you are such a good girl! ❤❤❤
How sweet ! ❤ Don't forget the furbabes !
Love you guys, and love sweet Echo 🐾❤️
How can you not let a pet melt your heart. We have to cats and they are my world. Now we feed five strays.
My guess is that as soon as Tom picked her up during the night to take her outside, it was all over. When I found them asleep on the recliner the next morning, Echo curled into a little ball on his chest, I knew the discussion about returning her was never going to happen. 😊
loved this video ! Echo is beautiful !
Our Fur Babies Our our family member and it Warms my Heart to see how much love ❤️ Someone has , September 30th I had to put my 13teen year old Unlicensed Therapy Puppy to Sleep and it has been so hard to Morn him being gone and I love your Fur grand she is Special
I'm so sorry about the loss of your 13-year-old friend. It truly leaves a big old hole in your heart. What a blessing he was to you for all those years. They do, indeed, become additional family members. Thank you for sharing your story with us. Perhaps Santa has another little pup that needs to be loved that you might be able to adopt. Dogs are such wonderful companions. I'm praying for you to be comforted with sweet memories of your time with him.
@ Thank you for Your kind words and Your Compliment Tom and Melissa I find joy when I watch your Clean Cooking videos and I watch the Old Videos that pop up sometimes 😊😊
Wonderful story....thank you.
We appreciate that you are watching our channel. Merry Christmas!
Oh my!!! Echo has stolen my heart!!!!! What a precious video!!!! I am a dog, fanatic so naturally this video scores a definite A+++++++ for you guys!!!!! It made me cry happy tears and there is no better feeling than this for me!!!!! Tom, thank you for being a softie 13 years ago!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🐶💝
I knew when I found them asleep on the recliner the next morning, Echo curled up on his chest, that she was staying forever. No need to even discuss it. We really appreciate that you are at the table with us for this series. Merry Christmas.
What a beautiful story. Echo sure has a loving family. I’m going to make this recipe for the holidays to give to our fur friends. We were gifted a precious shih tzu three years ago. We love her to pieces but she is rather a picky eater. I sure hope she will love those treats! Merry Christmas Melissa, Tom and Echo!
We sure hope your shih tzu enjoys these as much as Echo does. But I have to admit that Echo is not a picky eater. She just absolutely loves food - she fits in well with our family! Thank you so much for watching our channel and joining us at the table. Merry Christmas!
Tom you brought tears to my eyes. You have climbed way higher on my like scale. I love and miss our Dutch the Dachshund every day. He was the love of my life!
I'm so sorry about Dutch. It is a tremendous loss for us when they pass. But they bring us so much joy, so we have to focus on the blessing of the memories we have with them. We appreciate so much your kind words and that you are joining us at the table. Merry Christmas!
❤ Thank you Tom for this precious video of you and Echo. I have 3 fur grandbabies and one is also 13,they will love these!!
We really do appreciate that you are watching. We hope your fur grandbabies love these treats like Echo does. Merry Christmas to you all!

And melissa that was a great idea, to have echo stay that first night. Anyway, I'm going to make these wonderful treats for our wonderful doggie, bella!!! Merry christmas to all, and to all a good night!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ❤️, ohio.
I'm definitely going to watch and get the recipe for my Grand dog🐕🥰
We hope you and your Grand dog enjoy this recipe! Thank you for watching and Merry Christmas.
This is going to be my favorite video of all time! Poor echo, she was thinking grandpa stop talking so much and give me my treat. Our little Lacey has to say the blessing if she wants her greeny at night. She has to sit while I say God bless mommy God bless daddy thank you Jesus for my
Greenie,,Amen and then she’s ready to eat.
Hello Echo... Merry Christmas! You were great on video, so well mannered. May God bless you and your family always. ✝️🙏♥
Thank you so much for the kind words. Echo is a great dog and such a blessing to us all. We really appreciate that you are at the table with us. Merry Christmas.
Really enjoyed this episode! Echo's story & treats I now need to make! Thx....
You are very welcome. we hope your fur baby loves the treats like Echo does. Merry Christmas!
Thanks Tom & Melissa
I plan to make for my grand nephew pups.
They will get it for Christmas.
I love that you are doing this for your grandnephew pups. I hope they love them like Echo does. Merry Christmas to you and your family!
What a great dog story☺️thank you Tom& Melissa. For saving Echo😇wonderful treat to try for son’s dog Finn (Golden Retriever)🥰🙏💚💛Bodi
Thank you for watching and we hope Finn loves these treats as much as Echo does. Dogs capture such a special and permanent place in our hearts. Bodi, Merry Christmas to you and your family and fur babies!
Oh guys what a wonderful idea. Of course treats for our pets is high priority as they are family members. Our cat Lucy love Salmon so we make patties for her during the holidays as a treat. One time only as wild salmon is expensive but its her Christmas gift from the family. Lucy is 20 years old and still healthy. We all love her and she gives us such joy. Keeping Echo was probably the best decision you ever made. Old softie ...bless you and Melissa.
Once I found them asleep together the next morning, I knew I'd never hear any more about her going back. Our girls were in school, and I had not yet retired but Tom had and was home all day with her and they became big buddies very fast! She had him wrapped around her little paw in record time.
We wish you and Miss Lucy a wonderful holiday season. I love that she gets wild salmon at Christmas. It's a perfect gift. Merry Christmas to you and yours!
How awesome you included a recipe in the countdown for dogs.
They are important parts of our families. Such a blessing to us so we wanted to include something for them. Merry Christmas to you all !
You're barking up the right tree...
Duffy and Talkeetna will love these...
Melissa...You're the best..

Thank you! We hope Duffy and Talkeetna enjoy these. Merry Christmas!
@@comesitatmytable9044 Merry Christmas
She is so patient! Such a good girl.
Awwwwww! You fell in love with Echo! Awesome story 😀
I feel head over heels in love with her in the snap of my fingers. When she snuggled into me in my recliner, it was all over! Even though she’s Katie‘s dog, I still claim her as mine.
It took a few short hours and he was head over heals in love with that puppy. We really appreciate that you are at the table with us. Merry Christmas!
Thank you... I know my babies (Finn and Fionna) will love them! ❤ 🐾
Merry Christmas to you, Finn and Fionna. We hope they love the treats!
Merry Christmas Sweetheart. Enjoy your treats.
Thank you! Echo is really enjoying them! We wish you a very Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas Echo and many many more!!!!!!!
I'm so glad you did this! I have a grandpuppy, too, and she will be getting these treats for her Christmas present! Thanks so much!
You are welcome. We appreciate so much that you are watching our channel. Merry Christmas.
I have 4 grand doggies and plan on making these for them for Christmas.
Thank you guys for sharing this recipe. I know Max and Tinkerbell will appreciate them love you guys❤
We are so glad you enjoyed the video. We hope Max and Tinkerbell like the treats!
I love this. When Tom bent down and kissed her on the head after saying what a good girl she is. I cried😢. I just love people that love animals. God bless you both and Katie and Echo.
I make all of my girl, Delia’s treats. She love them. Merry Christmas Tom and Melissa. 😘
