If your dog has allergies to wheat, don’t worry!

There are plenty of alternatives that are dog-safe! One of the cheapest and easiest to find is probably rice flour. Other alternatives include pea flour, chickpea flour, coconut flour, and tapioca. Depending on your dogs’ allergies, oatmeal may also be a good option. I use oatmeal in these no-bake peanut butter pumpkin dog treats to hold everything together.

Another tip: inevitably, if you search the internet long enough, you’ll find someone who says, “Peanut butter has xylitol! It’s deadly! My third cousin who is married to a guy who met a guy who knew a girl who met a guy who used to be a vet in a former life said you should never give your dogs peanut butter!”

Well, yes, xylitol IS deadly for dogs. However, at this time, only about 4 brands of peanut butter use this ingredient, and they’re all more or less “specialty butters.” If you stick to the national brands you find in your supermarket, peanut butter is fine for dogs. If you prefer natural or specialty butter, just read the ingredients. Easy peasy, right?

Turn your dogs’ paws into cute Christmas decorations with our paw print Christmas craft! Makes a great homemade gift idea too!

FYI, the base of this recipe came from our mason jar dog treats recipe. I highly suggest checking that out if you’d like to give this holiday dog treat as a gift to a fellow dog parent.

If you want to add a bit more color to the gift, you can whip up some of these cute Christmas Tree treats, then top the whole thing off with this adorable White and Gold Paw Print Christmas Ornament (pictured above).
