Homemade Peanut Butter Dog Biscuits
I'll be the first to admit that my dogs are spoiled, with their ears pinned back and their big saucer eyes i can rarely refuse them. We always try to give them a variety of different treats mostly oily ones to aid Meg's stiff joints, but one thing they both really love is Peanut Butter.
Meg has been suffering a bit with the cold weather and she had been very grumpy which is how we determine when she is in pain. Yesterday i ordered more Yumove for her which, taken twice daily, should last her at least half the year and really help relieve the effects of her Hip Dysplasia.
Here's what type of Yumove i order for Meg
Since the Peanut Butter love is strong, i thought i would make some yummy biscuits to cheer her up and of course some for Bella because she is such a cutie, and i wanted to share this super easy, no fuss recipe!
When you go to buy your Peanut Butter PLEASE check the ingredients, some brands include Xylitol which while harmless to us is very toxic to dogs even in small quantities, and in higher amounts can cause potentially fatal liver damage. Palm Oil can also prove to be too rich for Dogs and lead to Stomach upset and Diarrhoea but is usually fine in small quantities every now and again, however its preferably best avoided.
So, lets get to the recipe, you will need...
2 cups of Flour (i just used plain)
1/2 cup of Peanut Butter
2 Eggs
Yep, that's it! Just mix all together and add water until you get a dough, them simply roll out and cut out your biscuits in your desired shape. I wish i had a bone cookie cutter but the Gingerbread Man will have to do, i think they liked them anyway.

I would recommend always double checking the ingredients are ok to use first though as like Peanut Butter some brands may contain toxic substances.
Thanks for reading! As always, comments and upvotes are much appreciated :)
Zoey will be impressed with her mom if I bake these treats! Thanks for your recipe.
Aww Zoey is gorgeous! Peanut Butter is always a winner!
Thanks for the recipe and the link. I love the cross eyed dog.Lol. All of them look very happy to have a fresh batch of cookies.
This is not click bait I promise. A couple of days ago I wrote a post about a country zoo not far from here. It has exotic species that I do not recognize. I was hoping maybe you could identify a couple of them. The photos are not great, but I think you can help me. Thanks so much. @mother2chicks.
Dogs are amazing creatures. Their physiology, intelligence and character are much more unique than in all domesticated animals. It is not surprising that dogs remain the most faithful companions of man in recent years
So true, the love and devotion they show to us is unconditional, i consider myself very fortunate to have two such affectionate and unique personalities in Meg and Bella .
Succes
Is it bad if I kind of also want to eat those? Haha don't judge. I make my dog homemade "pupsicles"! New here, nice to meet you!! Glad to see another person who thinks their dog deserves more than toxic food :)
haha not at all, in fact i made a few extras for my friend while i was at it. Oh wow that sounds like a good idea my dogs love ice so that would be right up their street, would love to see a post on that. Thanks for reading and nice to meet you too!
