Benefits of Pumpkin for Dogs

Not only do dogs love pumpkin, but it’s also good for their health. Check out these awesome benefits pumpkin provides to dogs:

  • Pumpkin is great for adding volume to your dog’s food. The fiber helps keep them full without adding a lot of extra calories. You can place a tablespoon of canned pumpkin for a ¼ cup of food you feed your dog.
  • Pumpkin is full of fiber which helps slow digestion and can help manage diarrhea by absorbing water.
  • Pumpkin also helps with constipation due to its high fiber and water content.
  • Since pumpkin slows digestion, your pet will feel fuller for longer.
  • Pumpkin flesh contains vitamin A which is important for vision health and vitamin C which boosts the immune system.
  • The zinc found in pumpkin will help improve skin and coat.

Is pumpkin good for dogs?

After seeing the long list of benefits of feeding your dog pumpkin, I’m sure you might already know the answer to this one, and it’s yes, pumpkin treats for dogs are good for them to eat.

Pumpkin is a healthy snack that can be used as a fun snack and implemented into their regular food to help them maintain a healthy, well-balanced diet.

Canned pumpkin or homemade pumpkin purée?

Both canned pumpkin and homemade pumpkin purée are fine for dogs and for making dog biscuits and treats.

Make sure the canned pumpkin has no added sugar or flavorings. Do not use pumpkin pie filling. It will add way too much sugar to your homemade pumpkin dog treats recipes. Pumpkin pie filling may also contain spices toxic to dogs.

Learn how to make pumpkin puree in the oven or Instant Pot.

How long do homemade pumpkin dog treats last?

It varies depending on the treat and how it is prepared. Generally, baked and frozen treats will last longer than no-bake ones. See the individual recipes for recommended use by information and storage tips.
