  • 2-3 freeze-dried treats, crushed
  • Dog-safe vegetables (optional, for extra flavor and nutrition)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Crust: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and place the dog-safe flatbread on a baking sheet.
  2. Add the Cheese: Spread a thin, even layer of shredded cheese over the flatbread.
  3. Top with Treats and Veggies: Sprinkle crushed freeze-dried treats over the cheese and add dog-safe vegetables if desired.
  4. Bake: Place the flatbread in the oven and bake for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
  5. Cool & Serve: Let the pizza cool completely before serving small, bite-sized pieces to your dog.

Note: When baking with liver, a mild odor may occur due to its natural scent. We recommend baking in a well-ventilated kitchen or using a lower oven temperature to minimize any strong smells. Your dog will love the tasty results!

 

Is Peanut Butter, Yogurt, and Pizza Healthy for Dogs?

  • Peanut Butter: Choose plain, unsweetened, and xylitol-free peanut butter, as xylitol is toxic to dogs. Peanut butter is a good source of protein and healthy fats in moderation.
  • Yogurt: Plain, unsweetened Greek yogurt is a great source of protein, probiotics, and calcium for dogs. It’s also easier to digest due to its lower lactose content. However, avoid flavored or sweetened yogurt.
  • Savory Pizza: When made with dog-safe ingredients like whole-grain or grain-free crust, a small amount of cheese, and dog-safe toppings, this pizza is a fun treat. Remember, cheese should be used in moderation to avoid digestive issues.

These treats offer balanced protein, healthy fats, and probiotics in moderation to promote good health for your dog! Always consider your dog’s specific dietary needs and consult with your vet if you have any concerns.
