Peanut butter is one of the world's most wonderful foods. Its delectable nuttiness lingers long after you take your first taste. No one knows this truth better than dogs do. Dogs, more so than any human peanut butter devotee, appreciate the food for its simplicity. And they're willing to work for it.
Dogs may be at a disadvantage for consuming peanut butter (without opposable thumbs, it is not easy to screw open a jar), but they are resilient. With unrelenting tongues and razor-sharp determination, dogs put all of their dignity on the line for the sake of the nut butter. With our own sticky fingers, we applaud them:
They may not be able to craft a sandwich, but dogs know there's nothing wrong with eating PB straight from a spoon.
Oh, and humans like peanut butter, too. Here are some recipes to inspire, if you're not in the mood to eat the good stuff of of your nose:

Note: Peanut butter is safe for most dogs, but should be served in moderation. Be sure to check with your vet before making any changes to your pet's diet. It is not recommended to serve peanut butter on a spoon, as your dog could get excited and swallow it.
