📊 Nutrition Notes
Bananas provide potassium and vitamin B6. Peanut butter adds protein and healthy fats. Coconut oil supports skin and coat health. These are calorie-dense, so keep portions small.
💡 Tips

- Great for stuffing inside a Kong toy
- Perfect summer cool-down snack
- Adjust size based on your dog's size — smaller dogs get smaller bites
