Pumpkin Carrot Dog Treats – homemade dog treats made with pumpkin puree and shredded carrots. Your pup is going to love these!
I ever tell you guys about the first date I went on last year where I gave the poor guy a full pitch of the cookbook I want to write one day?
One glass of wine and I got real passionate about my maybe someday in the very distant future cookbook: Booze and B*tch Biscuits, a book all about cocktails and homemade dog treats.
Amazingly, we actually ended up going out a few more times after that.
ANYWAY.
I’m all in on pumpkin.
Oh! I haven’t had my first official PSL yet. Have you? I got one from McDonald’s a couple weeks ago because I like theirs so much more than Starbucks but I feel like I need to go to Starbucks just for an Instagram picture.
But yeah, Homemade Pumpkin Carrot Dog Treats!
Oh my gosh, y’all. The above photo? I had the treats I wasn’t using for photos propped up on the arm of the couch and I look over and Clementine was leaned up against the pillow, just staring at the treats just like my kids do when I’m photographing something they want to eat.
I don’t know how she knew they were hers but she did.
These are super simple – just canned pumpkin, shredded carrots, peanut butter, an egg, flour, and a tiny bit of cinnamon.
I have no idea how they taste but my dogs seem to like them. My six year old ate one and asked for another.
So yeah. I guess they’re not terrible.

Just made these, they came out great. The dogs love them. I did use an extra Tlb of pumpkin and about 1/8 C flour less. Will make them again.

Hi, I would love to make these treats for my 6lb chihuahua. I was wondering if they are soft as he is missing all of his front teeth top and bottom!
Thea Depper says
When I make these, how do you store them. In the fridge or on the counter in a airtight container.
Amanda Livesay says
I store them in the fridge to keep them fresher a little longer.
Dani says
I did not use the cinnamon, but added an extra teaspoon of peanut butter, and the cookies came out awesome. They rolled out perfectly too. I used the 2 cups of Unbleached flour and just dusted a few times while rolling the dough. I even tried one, lol. Delicious. Thank you for the recipe.

Because my dough was a little dry, I added some coconut oil to the mixture to make it easier to roll out.
