Is it okay to give my dog peanut butter as an occasional treat?

Question

I was wondering if JIF reduced fat peanut butter or Peter Pan peanut butter (creamy) is good to give in small portions once in a while as a treat? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Male | neutered | 1 month and 12 days old | 13 lbs

Some dogs tolerate peanut butter well and some dogs may have diarrhea after eating anything out of their normal diet. The main thing with Peanut Butter is making sure there is no Xylitol in the ingredients. This is a sugar Substitute that can be life threatening for dogs. Best of luck and thank you for using Pet Coach.
