Equipment

Kitchen Scale (optional)

Ingredients

8 ounces creamy peanut butter 227 grams (I used Smuckers 'Natural')
8 ounces plain yogurt 227 grams
¼ cup cooked bacon bits optional

Instructions

Mix together the peanut butter, yogurt, and optional bacon bits.
8 ounces creamy peanut butter, 8 ounces plain yogurt, ¼ cup cooked bacon bits
Freeze until firm.
Serve to your dog in ¼-1 cup increments, based on your dog's size and weight.

Notes

Consider toppings or add-ins. For instance, splash in some low-sodium chicken broth.
Make an ice cream sandwich. Place a scoop of the ice cream between two round dog treats; scrape the excess off the sides, and freeze again.
Make sure your peanut butter is all-natural and free from Xylitol. Xylitol is extremely toxic to dogs.
Make sure to avoid giving your dog sweetened dairy products, especially anything with artificial sweeteners. Greek yogurt for dogs is good, thanks to its high protein and low lactose content.

Storage: Store peanut butter bacon puppy ice cream in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 8 weeks,
