Notes

  • Ensure your peanut butter is xylitol-free—xylitol is toxic to dogs.
  • Use gluten-free oats for a gluten-free version.
  • These treats are not meant to replace a balanced diet but are great for rewards and training.
  • For smaller dogs, cut the treats into bite-sized shapes before baking.
