Is Skippy peanut butter safe for my puppy's daily frozen Kong toy?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Labrador Retriever | Male | neutered | 5 months and 15 days old | 83 lbs

is Skippy smooth peanut butter OK for sealing the end of my puppy's Kong toy every night? I usually put a few pieces of his kibble or left over pieces of chicken inside of the Kong, then seal the end over with peanut butter then freeze it.

Yes, this should be fine. As long as there are no artificial sweeteners in the peanut butter, which usually there are not, this should be ok. The only thing I would say is if Duke begins to gain a lot of weight, cut back on the peanut butter.
