This recipe was reviewed by a veterinarian. It is intended as an occasional treat or snack—not a meal replacement. Treats should make up no more than 10% of your dog’s daily caloric intake. If your dog has allergies, sensitivities, or underlying health conditions, consult your veterinarian before introducing new foods. Always ensure all ingredients are safe for dogs—especially checking that peanut butter contains no xylitol.
