Homemade Pumpkin Dog Treats

Pumpkin Apple Pup-Cake Recipe (Grain Free)

Barbara Hanly

This recipe is grain free, natural and 100% delicious! You can make it using pureed pumpkin/carrot or some natural, sugar free, canned pumpkin.

Pumpkin is great for digestive health as it is an excellent source of fibre. It helps with diarrhoea and constipation. Fibre is also great for weight loss as it keeps your pet fuller for longer and adds some natural additional flavour to otherwise bland diet foods.

Pumpkin is also rich in nutrients such as fatty acids, antioxidants, vitamin A, beta carotene, potassium and iron, all which help contribute to cancer prevention.
