3 Ingredient healthy dog treats!!🍌🦴

The second I grab the bananas, she knows. She comes into the kitchen, sits front and center, and supervises every single step. 🤣 Bananas get inspected. The egg crack is monitored. If peanut butter is involved, she leans in extra close. And the final mix absolutely must be approved before it goes in the oven. Quality control is very serious around here!!👷🏽‍♀️

What started as a simple homemade recipe turned into something bigger. It’s our rhythm. Our little moment in the middle of managing big things.🥹

Because giving daily medication to a 15½-year-old medically complex queen is no small task. Some days it feels like a full production. And instead of hiding her pills in highly processed treats, these all-natural banana oatmeal bites have become the perfect way to make sure she gets exactly what she needs — gently, intentionally, and with ingredients I trust.

Our simple banana oatmeal treat recipe:

• 4 ripe bananas

• 1½ cups oatmeal

• 1 egg

• Optional spoonful of peanut butter

Bake at 350° for 20–25 minutes.

Simple. Whole ingredients. And now a ritual she refuses to miss.

Baby is currently managing:

• Mitral valve disease

• Pulmonary hypertension

• Heart murmur

• Vestibular disease

• Addison’s disease

• Cancer

Her medications & supplements (under veterinary guidance):

• Sildenafil

• Vetmedin

• Cosequin

• Dasuquin

• Yunnan Baiyao

Thank you to the brands that help keep our girl comfortable and cared for:

... Read moreMaking homemade dog treats has been a game-changer for my senior dog’s health routine. Using just ripe bananas, oatmeal, and eggs, these treats are not only nutritious but also gentle enough for dogs managing complex conditions like heart disease or cancer. I add peanut butter occasionally to enhance flavor, but it’s entirely optional. The process is straightforward: mash the bananas, mix in oatmeal and one egg, and bake at 350°F for around 20-25 minutes. The aroma fills the kitchen, and my dog literally waits at my feet, excited for this ritual. It’s reassuring to know exactly what’s going into her treats, especially when she takes multiple medications like sildenafil and Vetmedin under vet supervision. These treats have also helped me avoid the additives and preservatives found in store-bought options, which can sometimes aggravate sensitive stomachs. Plus, the texture is perfect—not too hard and not too soft—making it easier to hide medications if needed. From my experience, making your own dog treats fosters a meaningful bond during trying times of managing chronic illnesses. It’s more than food; it’s care you can see and taste in every bite.
