It’s October and my 2nd Blogversary is on Sunday, 10/10/10.
A special celebration is planned for this weekend.
What I LOVE about October … PUMPKIN.
Pumpkin is a squash fruit.
The fiber content of pumpkin is useful in the treatment and maintenance of intestinal/digestive illness of dogs. Pumpkin is also simply a healthful dietary supplement for your dogs. Lots of Pumpkins currently available that you can make tasty treats for your dogs.
This recipe requires pumpkin puree. How to prepare the pumpkin? Believe it or not you may use the mini pumpkins.
We got ours at the farmer’s market.
Wash n Cut the pumpkin in half.
Scoop the seeds with a spoon.
Double boiler or a steamer works best to cook the pumpkins.
Once cook, scoop the insides (discarding skin) and puree it.
Here’s the rest of the recipe …
Pumpkin Dog Treats
2 small pumpkins = ~1 cup of puree pumpkin
~2 1/2 flour
1 1/2 cup of oats
1 1/2 tsp of cimmamon
2 tbs of honey
1 tbs of oil
2/3 cup of water
Combine and stir all the ingredients.
Adjust the flour and liquid as necessary to make stiff dough. Roll on floured cutting board to 3/8″ thick.
Cut the dough with a pumpkin cutter. Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for 3 to 3 1/2 hours in a 250 degree oven until thoroughly dry.
I waited for a long time but it’s worthwhile.
If you are unable to bake doggie treats, my doggie chef have package some delish Pumpkin Bone Treats (not the same recipe as above).
