Sandie and I love it when fall and winter come, because it means playing in the snow, snuggling next to the fire, and of course all of our favorite delicious comfort foods. One of our absolute favorites is pumpkin – it’s so versatile, super nutritious, and is in abundance in the autumn season. You can make all kinds of amazing desserts, snacks, and savory dishes with pumpkin, for you and your pup. And yes, you read that right – you can and should let your dog partake! Plain cooked pumpkin can be added to their meals, or you can get creative and whip up some of your own delightful treats!

Watch the video below and check out our recipe for a positively drool-worthy Pumpkin Spice Smoothie that can also be used to make some tasty frozen popsicle treats!
