- 1.5 cups quick oats
- 0.5 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 0.25 cup dog-safe carob chips (optional)

Gradually add the quick oats to the wet mixture, stirring until a thick dough forms.
If using dog-safe carob chips, fold them gently into the dough.
Using a spoon or hands, shape the dough into small, bite-sized balls (approximately 1-2 inches in diameter).
Place the treats onto a parchment-lined baking sheet or container.
Optional: For added creaminess, top each treat with a dollop of plain Greek yogurt.
Chill the treats in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours to firm up.
