Now just might the perfect time to to add these Easy Homemade Dog Treats to your baking “to make list”! Melissa and I both have almost 9-month old puppies and they are in love with these peanut butter dog treats. You will more than likely have all of the ingredients at home. And this is the perfect recipe to make with the kids.

My dog, Stinson loves peanut butter. It is the only “human food” that we give him. We typically put some in his kong and he is busy and content for awhile! I give Stinson all-natural peanut butter.

Please note that you that you should never give your dogs a low sugar peanut butter that contains sugar alternatives. The very best option is a peanut butter that is made from just ground peanuts with no sugar or other things added. 

If you haven’t made homemade dog treat before, you are going to love it. Simple ingredients that you and your dog will love. You will love that you might just have everything on hand and your pup will love the treats! The treats in this recipe are peanut butter based. We have also tried these banana dog treats!
