Peanut Butter Dog Treats

Don’t forget the pets on Christmas day! I always enjoy having gifts for all of our pets to enjoy whether it’s a toy or indulgence. I remember one year when I was a child I made fudge for my goat. Apparently it is very rich for goats and she got very sick. I had to call the vet and give her a shot! I’ll never remember that!

Here’s a fun gift for your doggy whether it’s given on Christmas morning or as a daily treat. Most dogs love peanut butter!

    Sadly, our dog River is allergic to peanut butter. Could you suggest a replacement ingredient for these cookies? I’d still like to make them for her

      Samantha,

      I am not certain but I did do a little searching for you and found this http://kolchakpuggle.com/2014/06/thats-nutty-5-dog-friendly-alternatives-peanut-butter.html. You could try almond butter possibly. I hope you can make them with something for sweet River. I’m sure she’d love them on Christmas morning 🙂
