Ingredients:
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- A pinch of cinnamon

- Whipped cream (optional)
How to make:
- Place all ingredients (aside from optional whipped cream) in a blender and mix for about one minute.
- After mixture is blended, serve a small amount to your dog. Top with whipped cream if desired.
- Please ensure whipped cream does NOT contain xylitol.

Pumpkin is a wonderful fall treat for your dog to enjoy as it is high in Vitamin A, C, E, iron, potassium, fiber, and is great for digestion! When offering your dog a new treat of any kind, it is best to start small to ensure their stomach can handle the snack. If you have any questions about whether your dog can enjoy a specific treat, please contact your veterinarian for more insight and information.
