Chewy's Homemade Dog Treats

If I eat healthy, why wouldn't I want Chewy to eat just as healthy? He deserves to indulge in only the best ingredients, like his parents.

For treats, we typically give Chewy carrots, green beans, broccoli, etc. anyway. Chewy is like his momma (and poppa!), though, and is a huge peanut butter fan.

This recipe has the perfect mixture of fruits, veggies, and...peanut butter!
