Not healthy in large quantities, but it's a treat. You just put a small amount in the back of the Kong and freeze it and they have to lick it out. It's not much different than giving a peanut butter cookie or cheese for a treat. You can put her kibble in there and seal it with the PB to keep the kibble in and then freeze it and she has to lick the PB to get the kibble to fall out. Just about every dog owner I know does this unless their dog is allergic or something. I use the all natural PB from Trader Joe's. That's what i eat and it doesn't have the hydrogenated fats in it. Cream cheese is just less messy or good for dogs who don't like PB (or households with PB allergies).

I give Snickers something I found this past weekend called Sam's Yams. They are sweet potatoes baked w/ blueberries and other all natural ingredients. They are as hard as bones and Snick worked on is for a good 40 min today....I'm happy. He also loves his Yogurt flavored Booda Bone but I know thats not too good for him....
