And we're done!! Keep in mind that if your dog has any allergies, check the recipe first and then make it for them. It is also advisable to check with a vet if you're not sure whether your dog can have any of the ingredients. And give the popsicles to them in moderation. Even though they're healthy, too much of them isn't good! One popsicle every two days is more than enough. Also make sure to use xylitol free peanut butter.
