Pumpkin pie spiced treats for dogs have never been easier to make! These crunchy homemade dog treats will fill your house with the warm smells of fresh pumpkin pie. Slather a finished cookie with a little pumpkin puree and a dab of yogurt to give your dog an out-of-this-world flavor experience.
A word of caution: nutmeg, a standard ingredient in commercial pumpkin pie spice, is not good for dogs, so you’re better off following our recipe here rather than using a pre-mixed spice blend. We replaced nutmeg with earthy turmeric, which also brightens the color of these tasty treats.
