Looks like a lot of fun...but just a quick reminder where two different medical conditions would make these contra-indicated. First one: allergies...so many of our canine friends suffer from food allergies that manifest as ear and skin infections (can also have respiratory or GI symptoms). Wheat is a common allergen. So if you have a dog with undiagnosed skin and ear problems, probably better pass on these. Second: obesity. The nutrient breakdown did not include the peanut butter, but I can assure you these are very high in both fat and calories, so if "Max" is a little portly, better try a light version or skip all together. OK...climbing down off my soap box...for a large number of dogs this recipe will be just fine and perhaps even better than the pre-made treats with unknown fillers and low quality ingredients, but as always, there is no one-size fits all...so be sure that your pet qualifies for this special little treat..then go ahead and use in moderation!

Thank you, Chef Mommie! My dog loves these. I was a bit worried because I only had 1/2 cup of peanut butter, but they turned out just fine and were so easy to make. Rather than using our bone-shaped cookie cutter, I used the top of a spice container. The cookies look just like vanilla wafers. This will become a regular treat for our pup.

Made these today for our Husky as he just had some minor surgery yesterday...he loved them! I also tried them on our 15 year old finniky poodle and he gobbled them up. Needless to say, I won't waste my money on store bought anymore; these were super easy to make and a super hit with Tonka and Pismo...thanks for sharing!
