We love a good homemade dog treat, especially one with extra benefits for your pups! These four-ingredient Homemade Pumpkin Pet Gummies are packed with superfoods and make the perfect fall treat for your dog.
Pumpkin Puree: Pumpkin is not only delicious, but it provides a great source of fiber for your dogs. Pumpkin can help keep your pups regular all while providing a tasty source of Vitamins A, C, and E.
Gelatin: Plain gelatin is a great natural source of lysine, which can help keep your dog’s skin and coat healthy and shiny.
Coconut Oil: Coconut oil is a natural source of Lauric Acid, which can help with inflammation. It is also a healthy fat, which can help your pup’s digestion and joints.
Perio Support: Perio contains beneficial probiotics that can help restore microbial balance in the mouth and remove plaque-causing bacteria. It also has taurine and cranberry powder, both of which are a rich source of antioxidants and can support gum tissue health.
