Ingredients
- 1 cup whole wheat flour (or gluten-free alternative)

Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix the Dough: In a large bowl, combine the whole wheat flour and rolled oats. In a separate bowl, mix the ground turkey, grated zucchini, carrots, chicken broth, egg, and parsley together. Add this mixture to the flour and oats, stirring until it forms a dough.
- Shape the Pizza: Transfer the dough onto the prepared baking sheet and shape it into a round pizza crust, about 1/2 inch thick.
- Add Toppings: Sprinkle the ground turkey on top of the pizza crust evenly. If using, add shredded cheese and any other toppings your dog enjoys.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the turkey is cooked thoroughly.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the pizza to cool completely before slicing it into servings that are appropriate for your dog. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
