A Poodle-Perfect Thanksgiving Treat: Pumpkin Pie for Pups

Thanksgiving is a time for family, gratitude, and of course, delicious food—and that includes our furry family members too! Here’s a simple and safe pumpkin pie-inspired treat that your poodle can enjoy while you’re celebrating.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup canned pure pumpkin (make sure it’s pure pumpkin, not pumpkin pie mix)

  • 1 egg

  • 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt (unsweetened and unflavored)

  • 1/2 cup whole wheat flour (or a dog-safe flour alternative)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat and Prep: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a mini muffin tin or line it with silicone baking cups.

  2. Mix the Filling: In a bowl, combine the pumpkin, egg, and Greek yogurt until smooth.

  3. Add the Flour: Gradually stir in the whole wheat flour until you have a thick batter.

  4. Fill and Bake: Spoon the mixture into the mini muffin tin, filling each cup about two-thirds full.

  5. Bake: Bake for about 15-20 minutes or until the treats are set and slightly golden. Let them cool completely before serving to your poodle.

Happy Thanksgiving to You and Your Poodle!
