Pumpkin Dog Treats

Pumpkin dog treats suggest "fall" and conjure up images of the leaves on the trees turning colors and nights getting cooler....even if you live in a tropical climate. Pumpkins are ubiquitous for Halloween and Thanksgiving celebrations.

These gorgeous decorated dog treats are pumpkin spice cupcakes made by My Doggy Delights bakery in Hollywood, Florida.

If you are going to make homemade pumpkin dog treats, and you plan to use canned pumpkin due to the ease it provides, just make sure you use pure pumpkin and not pumpkin pie filling which has a high sugar content to make it palatable for human taste buds (and the reason why pumpkin pie is so delicious!) The pie filling also contains a lot of calories. Your dog doesn't care about eating a sweet taste like we do, so spare him the calories.

These beautiful dog treats are pumpkin carob drops made by the Pup-Cake Barkery in Rogers, Arkansas:

Your kitchen will really smell wonderful while these treats are baking! Have a cup of pumpkin spice coffee while you wait. 

Pumpkin is a high source of fiber and can aid dogs who suffer from constipation, either due to their diet or other reasons. The flesh of the vegetable is all you need. Pumpkin rind is not suggested for dogs because it is hard to digest and gas-producing. Pumpkin seeds are not recommended for your pet either due to creating a possible choking hazard.

Halloween Dog Cookies

Halloween dog cookies make spook-tacular fare for the four-legged costumed ghouls and princesses. You can find decorated dog treats at your favorite dog bakery, or make your own.

Halloween is a family event especially when young trick-or-treaters are involved. Frequently, the dog gets to accompany the procession. And if everyone is dressing up, you can be sure the dog will not be left out.

These Halloween dog treats were made by Bone Appetit, a pet bakery in Sandwich, Illinois:

Color writers and Fido's Frosting brand of Royal Icing For Dogs were used to decorate the little ghosts, cats, pumpkins and bats. Fido's Frosting dries hard, smooth and shiny, and will not melt! These treats are irresistible.

You can make your own Halloween treats with Halloween-themed cookie cutters. Or simply make bone shaped dog biscuits and just use colored decorations to turn them into holiday treats.

No matter how much effort you want to put into treat making, the dogs and their owners will be appreciative of the thought. 

If you have some treats to show off, please post images for the

Halloween Dog Treats

Halloween dog treats are the perfect surprise when furry trick-or-treaters come knocking this month.

These little paws and bones are very easy to make and will delight both dogs and humans!

Halloween Dog Treats

Get the paw shape and mini bone silicone molds through K9Cakery.com. The molds do not require greasing. Mix up K9 Katie's peanut butter biscuit mix, and pour into the molds. Bake for 15 - 18 minutes at 350 degrees. Let the biscuits sit in the oven for 30 to 60 minutes to harden. Pop them out of their mold and let them cool.

To decorate, mix Fido's Frosting brand Royal Icing for Dogs. This sugar free yogurt dog treat icing dries hard and will not melt. It does not require refrigeration which makes it perfect as a treat to go. As you can see in the photo, it dries very shiny! 

Orange, black, white and purple would be the Halloween colors to use. You can put a few treats into a plastic bag and tie it up with a Halloween themed ribbon for the perfect dog treat packaging.
