🎃 Don't bin those pumpkin guts! 🐾
Carving pumpkins this Halloween? Before you throw away the insides, did you know you Pumpkin naturally contains fibre and nutrients, making it a lovely little addition to many dogs' diets when served in moderation!
Here's a little inspiration!
🥣 Pumpkin purée – Cook the fresh pumpkin flesh until soft, then blend. Add a little to your dog's dinner or spread onto a lick mat.
🦴 Homemade pumpkin biscuits – Mix cooked pumpkin purée with egg and oat flour, then bake into little doggy treats!
🧊 Frozen pumpkin bites – Mix pumpkin purée with a little plain, unsweetened yoghurt and freeze in small moulds.
🌱 Pumpkin seeds – Rinse, roast without seasoning and grind finely. A small sprinkle can make an occasional food topper.
Just remember to use fresh, clean pumpkin, remove the tough skin and stalk, and avoid salt, sugar and spices. Don't use pumpkins that have been sitting outside as decorations!
Less waste, more wagging tails! 🎃🐾
Will you be making anything for your dog this Halloween?
