Whether you dog has specific food allergies, health conditions, or you are just worried about the quality of the ingredients in commercial treats, you have the ability to use human grade food items to make your own treats. With recent issues of Chinese Rice Gluten being tainted and many treats and even food being recalled, more and more owners have chosen to make their own treats.

Here's one of my all time favorites. I had to keep a dear friend from eating these cookies himself, they smelled so good!

Pumpkin Pie Biscuits

1 1/2 cups of Whole Wheat Flour
2 cups of all-purpose flour (plus a little extra for rolling)
1/2 cup rolled oats
1 teaspoon of cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon of nutmeg
1/2 cup of reduced sodium chicken broth
3/4 cup of canned pumpkin (NOT pumpkin pie mix)
1 tablespoon oil
1 tablespoon maple syrup or pancake syrup
1 egg
Non-Stick Foil

Preheat oven to 350.
Mix the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl.
Blend the broth, pumpkin, oil, syrup and egg in a blender or food processor.
Add the blended mixture to the dry ingredients and mix together with a spoon.
Use your hand to mix well and form a dough.
Roll out onto a floured surface while sprinkling the surface and dough with flour to prevent sticking to the rolling pin and surface.
Roll out to 1/2 inch thickness.
Use cookie cutters to cut out the biscuits and place on a baking sheet with non-stick foil.
Bake for 30 to 40 minutes or until brown.
Store biscuits in the refrigerator in an air-tight container.
