As pet owners, we want the best for our furry companions, and that includes providing them with delicious and nutritious treats.

By using simple ingredients and skipping the preservatives found in store-bought options, you can ensure that your dog enjoys healthy and tasty rewards. In this blog post, we'll share three easy-to-follow recipes that you can whip up in your own kitchen, with the added assurance of knowing exactly what goes into your pet's treats.

2. In a mixing bowl, mash the ripe banana and combine it with the peanut butter and egg until well mixed.
3. Gradually add the whole wheat flour and oatmeal to form a dough.
