When my golden boy Leonardo hears the rustle of the peanut butter jar, his ears perk up like he’s just heard the dinner bell of the century.


This isn’t just a treat-making session — it’s our ritual.


These DIY Peanut Butter Dog Treat Recipes are:

  • Made with vet-recommended ingredients

  • ✅ Easy to make (no chef’s hat required)

  • ✅ Cheaper than store-bought

  • ✅ Tail-wag guaranteed


And because variety is the spice of life (and peanut butter), we’re doing three kinds : baked, no-bake, and frozen.


🩺 Why Peanut Butter Is Good for Dogs

From a Sarah’s perspective:

  • Protein-rich → supports muscle health.

  • Healthy fats → great for skin and coat.

  • Vitamins E & B → boosts immune and nervous system health.


Important: Always choose xylitol-free peanut butter, as xylitol is toxic to dogs. Go for natural, unsalted peanut butter whenever possible.
