My girl absolutely loves these biscuits. I know have to make them quite often, since they are her favorite treat. I keep them in the freezer and just give them to her frozen. It gives her some extra crunch for those big teeth! Thanks for a great recipe!

Great blog and pictures of Cleo. What a precious looking dog! My wife has been making biscuits for our dogs and they love them. We are interested in trying your recipe. Thanks!

I was surprised when you said you had to sneak pumpkin to your dog. Mine loves pumpkin straight from the can. I tried making these as my first homemade dog biscuit recipe. They turned out great and Dakota loves them. I was worried about the cost factor, the brown rice flour was $3.69 for a 7 1/2 cup bag. Even so, they seem like they are a good value and I like the fact that they are homemade. Thanks, for the recipe! BTW, your dog is awfully cute!

Great read and pics – thanks! I have been feeding my dogs pumpkin for years whenever they have a bad stomach and they lap it up. I feed raw meat mixed with NDF (a food supplement/carb etc adjunct to the meat) but when they are sick I just replace the NDF with canned pumpkin and some digestive enzymes and probiotic. Does the trick everytime. If they are really sick from eating who knows what, I just do about 1/2 cup of pumpkin 2-3 times per day with enzymes/probiotics and 1 or 2 capsules of slippery elm which settles an aching stomach and forms a lubricant in digestive tract. Then I slowly reintegrate the meat, cooking at first and slowly back to raw over a few days. Gross I know but it works wonders! I will try these great treats

Thank you so much for sharing this recipe! I just made a batch to freeze for use at Thanksgiving. I know I will be short on time before the holiday and want to make sure the dogs have some treats too!

Ah….a long, dreary day in the office and I come across your dog biscuit post. I love the addition of pumpkin in these–not to mention that sweet lab snout (I have one, too–a lab that is, not a sweet snout). Thanks for the recipe!
