Recipe Questions
- → Can I substitute peanut butter?
Yes, but ensure any substitute is xylitol-free and safe for dogs, as some nut butters may contain harmful ingredients.
- → How long do these treats last?
Store treats in an airtight container for up to one week, or freeze them to extend shelf life.
- → Can I add other ingredients?
Optional additions like fresh parsley and grated carrot enhance flavor and freshness, but avoid toxic foods to dogs.
- → What texture do these treats have?
Baking time affects texture: 15 minutes yields a softer treat, while 22 minutes results in a crunchier bite.

Yes, these treats use rolled oats which are generally safe and grain-free alternatives, but always consult your vet for specific dietary needs.
