Eggs and truffle recipe for dogs
Truffle dogs: These dogs were once used to find this very expensive and rare delicacy that grows near the roots of oak trees. Truffle dogs are thought to be descendants of the poodle. Truffle dogs are well endowed with an astonishingly keen nose. These dogs used to dig out the truffles for the fungus by lifting the truffle to the surface with their forefeet. Most of the master's of these dogs were hunting thieves; therefore it was to their advantage that the dogs be kept quiet since most of the truffles were located in big estates. These hunting thieves used to prize their truffle dog with a portion of their cheese and bread, of course the truffle, stayed with the poacher.
