BEFORE YOU START

It’s important to note that some ingredients could be dangerous for your dog if you have paid attention to their label! For instance peanut butter needs to be xylitol free. Xylitol can be fatal to dogs and can be found in regular peanut butter. You can avoid it by buying organic peanut butter.

Some dogs are also lactose intolerant, so avoid using too much diary, or use it in very small quantities.
