Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, quick oats, and baking powder to combine.
In a separate medium bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to cream the peanut butter, honey, and unsalted butter until smooth and fluffy.
Add the vanilla extract and the egg to the wet mixture, and mix until fully incorporated.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, alternating with the milk, until you form a soft and pliable dough.
Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out your dough to about 1/4-inch thickness.
Using a bone-shaped cookie cutter, cut out shapes and transfer them to the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
Gather and re-roll dough scraps as needed until all the dough is used.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Avoid over-baking to keep the cookies chewy.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week or freeze them for longer storage.
