Great Dog Treat to Make!

I got this tip from my good friend Daphne. I love to give my dogs good treats to keep them busy for a while - but don't want to upset their digestive tracts. And with 5 dogs (whippets and a chihuahua) I'm always looking for good, but inexpensive treats.

Daphne told me to get some of those beef femur bones and fill them with peanut butter! Then, wrap them with plastic wrap and pop them into the freezer. They last longer this way.

Oh my gosh my dogs love them! This keeps them busy for quite a while and it is a nutritious snack too. I buy the all natural peanut butter that is just peanuts - no added sugar or salt. It's the store brand, so it's not too expensive. She also mentioned plain yogurt too. Be sure to get plain... and be ABSOLUTELY sure there are no artificial sweeteners!! Many artificial sweeteners are POISON to dogs!

Here are the bones I use for my Girls at PetCo.com. You can just click on the photos to get to their page at PetCo's website.
