Have you found yourself in a situation where you’ve run out of dog treats? If it’s a yes, you’ve come to the right place. And if it is a no, you’ll have something to take back. You don’t need to rush to a nearby pet store to grab some. Just go into your kitchen and mix some ingredients to make some delicious no-cook treats for your pet.

This article shares a list of food items that are easily available in the kitchen and work great as pet treats.

1. Peanut butter
Yes, moderate consumption of peanut butter is safe for dogs. This healthy fat ingredient can be mixed with oats and turned into balls to reward your furry friends. It’s a neutral ingredient that can be mixed with absolutely anything to enhance the taste.

2. Carrots
The taste of this vegetable, which is high in beta carotene, is also appreciated by our four-legged friends. The best part? Carrots need not be cooked; your pets can relish them raw. However, one may have to cut it into bite sizes depending on how your dog chews their food.

3. Green peas
Many dog parents widely use this green source of protein to train their pets. Again, you don’t need to steam or saute green peas. Frozen or room-temperature green peas work just fine for dogs.

4. Apples
This fibrous fruit is equally good for dogs. But don’t let them nibble on the center part of the fruit. It is best to cut them into small pieces. Dogs love the natural sweetness of the fruit.

5. Air-popped popcorn
If you’re willing to skip butter and salt, popcorn is a healthy treat for you and your furry friend to enjoy together. To enhance the taste, you can dust the popcorn with vegan cracks for the dog and some black pepper for yourselves.

6. Coconut
If you like to use organic coconut in your Thai recipes or for smoothies, keep some aside for your dog. Cut them into small bites for them to relish. Coconuts are loaded with healthy fiber and fats, which help promote good health.

7. Sardines
This is another fantastic no-cook healthy treat option for your dog. They can be given to them as frozen treats. It’s an excellent way to include omega-3 fatty acids in your pet’s diet. Although, remember to buy unsalted sardines for your furry friend.

8. Broccoli
Dogs enjoy cooked as well as raw broccoli. However, do not serve this vegetable to your pet with added seasonings and flavors. In addition to this, the florets contain isothiocyanates. Hence, serve them in small quantities, or else it may lead to gastric problems in dogs.
