Well after doing a bunch of reading and finding other forms of sweeteners, it's a toss up between xylitol and erythritol. I've ruled out monk fruit because of it's cost. I'm leaning towards purchasing the erythritol because it is non-toxic to dogs,  it has zero calories and it does not induce diarrhea.

This huge bag has lasted years at my house for $6.84 at Walmart.

I wish OUr Walmart carried this! Maybe I can ask them if they will! I'm glad you showed this.

Just so everyone knows...this particular brand is not 100% Monk Fruit extract. It does contain dextrose, another sweetener. There are other Monk Fruit extracts that contain erythritol as well. The pure powder, 100% Monk Fruit extract, is so expensive that most people shy away from it.

Not only is pure Monk fruit extract expensive, the taste is all over the map in the reviews.  I will stick to Plenavita or Lakanto.
