  1. Homemade Halloween Dog Treats

Homemade Halloween Dog Treats

Homemade Halloween Dog Treats

Gina Brugna
October 1, 2023
1. Pumpkin & Peanut Butter Treats:
Mix 1 cup of canned pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling) with 1/2 cup of peanut butter. Stir in 2 1/2 cups of whole wheat flour and 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon. Roll out the dough and use Halloween-themed cookie cutters (like pumpkins or bats) to make cute shapes. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 15-20 minutes.


2. Sweet Potato Bones: Peel and chop sweet potatoes into strips or bone shapes. Place them on a baking sheet and bake at 250°F (120°C) for about 3 hours or until they become crispy. Make sure they are fully dried out so they store well and are easier for your dog to digest.


3. Mummy Wrapped Hot Dogs: Cut hot dogs into small pieces. Wrap them with thin strips of store-bought or homemade dog-safe dough (you can use the pumpkin and peanut butter dough from the first recipe). Bake until the dough is golden brown.


4. Carrot 'Fingers' with Pumpkin Dip:

Create "witch fingers" using baby carrots as the finger and slivered almonds as the nails. Attach the almond nail using a small amount of peanut butter. Serve with a side of canned pumpkin dip (unsweetened) as "pumpkin guts."


5. Apple Witch's Brew Popsicles:

Blend unsweetened applesauce with water and a little bit of plain yogurt. Pour the mixture into ice cube trays or silicone molds. Drop in a small dog treat or two into each slot and freeze until solid.


6. Cheese Broomsticks:

Cut string cheese sticks in half. Make small broom bristles by cutting the end into thin strips. Attach a pretzel stick as the broom handle.


7. Banana Ghosts:

Cut a banana into halves. Dip one end into unsweetened Greek yogurt and add mini blueberries as the eyes and mouth.


Remember always to use dog-safe ingredients and consider any allergies your dog may have. These homemade treats are a fun way to celebrate Halloween with your four-legged friend while keeping their health and safety in mind.


Enjoy the spook-tacular snacking!
