Banana peanut butter dog ice cream
What is in it
Three items make up the ingredient list, with nothing past them:
- Nonfat Greek yogurt
- Banana
- Peanut butter, which is dry roasted peanuts and sea salt
Because of the yogurt and the peanuts, this flavor contains dairy and peanuts. It is not a single ingredient treat. If your dog does not do well with peanuts, Pumpkin and Apple has no peanuts, though it still has dairy. If dairy is the problem, neither flavor fits.
The freeze dryer pulls the water out of the mix, leaving crisp pieces that keep their shape at room temperature. That is why this dog ice cream lives in the pantry and not the freezer. The home page explains the idea in a minute.

Does it contain peanuts or dairy?
Yes to both: peanuts from the peanut butter and dairy from the yogurt.
Is it frozen?
No. It is freeze-dried, so it keeps at room temperature and has nothing in it that can melt.

Our training guide is 1 to 3 small pieces a session, adjusted for your dog's size and activity. At about 117.6 kcal an ounce, small pieces are plenty.
How big is the bag?
2.5 oz. Our Pumpkin and Apple bag is 1 oz because the two recipes have very different densities: the pumpkin pieces are much lighter for their size.
