Healthy Pumpkin Treat Ideas for Your Dog This Fall
Hey, Palace Squad! 🎃🐶
Fall is in the air, and you know what that means—pumpkin everything. I mean, who doesn’t love a pumpkin spice moment? Well, my But guess what? Your dog can get in on the action too (without the coffee, of course). Pumpkin isn’t just delicious; it’s packed with benefits for your pup. And yes, we’re going beyond basic pumpkin purée here—we’re talking full-on, tasty, dog-friendly pumpkin treats with some of our favorite add-ins.
So, why pumpkin? For starters, it’s great for your dog’s digestion. If your pup’s stomach is throwing tantrums, pumpkin is like the soothing balm they never knew they needed. Plus, it’s full of fiber, which helps keep things… moving along. But beyond digestion, pumpkin is rich in vitamins A and C, which are awesome for your dog’s skin and immune system. A healthy dog with great skin? That’s a total fall win.
Here are some fun pumpkin treat ideas to try:
-
Pumpkin & Turkey Poppers Combo: Grab a can of plain organic pumpkin purée (not the pie filling kind—your dog doesn’t need the extra sugar), and mix in crumbled Turkey Poppers. Freeze the mixture into little treat-sized portions, and boom—instant fall delight. It’s like a pumpkin turkey pie for your dog, minus the fancy crust.
-
Pumpkin Puppuccinos: Blend some pumpkin purée with plain yogurt and a little bit of peanut butter (just make sure it’s xylitol-free), then sprinkle some Gone Bananas on top for an extra kick of sweetness. Your dog will be the envy of the fall season.
-
Pumpkin Spice Kibble Topper: Mix crumbled Turkey Tenders with a spoonful of pumpkin and plop it on top of your dog’s regular food. Suddenly, their kibble isn’t so boring anymore—it’s basically gourmet fall cuisine.
Pumpkin is a super versatile, healthy ingredient, and there’s no shortage of ways to make it fun for your dog. Plus, who doesn’t love the idea of their dog joining the pumpkin trend? Bring on the #PumpkinPaws season! 🧡
