Is your dog peanut butter obsessed?! Don't forget to give them a little lick today to celebrate - and if you'd like to share a photo of them enjoying their tasty treat, feel free to drop it in the comments below!

Remember, it's important to only treat PB in moderation. It's a special occasion treat and a teaspoon or so per 10 pounds of body weight is a good amount for their tasty treat. Always check the ingredients in your peanut butter and try to opt for one with minimal ingredients. While not very common, there are brands out there that use deadly xylitol as a sweetener - stay clear of those types!
