Here's the dog treat recipe for pumpkin cookie dog treats:

Ingredients for
Pumpkin Dog Treats

• 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
• 2 tablespoons dry milk
• 1 cup white flour
• 1/3 cup corn meal
• 1/2 cup oats
• 1 1/2 teaspoons dry yeast
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon ginger
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1/2 cup canned pumpkin
• 1/2 cup water + 1 tablespoon water

Directions for Pumpkin Dog Cookies

• Place all the ingredients in your bread machine and set the machine for the dough cycle.

• When the dough is finished, remove it and roll it into sheets that are 1/4" thick.

• Using cookie cutters, cut the dough into shapes and place it on a lightly greased cookie sheet or an ungreased pastry mat.

• Let the cookies rise for about an hour.

• Bake the dog cookies for an hour at 275-300 degrees F.

• Turn off the oven, and let the dog cookies continue to dry overnight in the oven. When they are completely done, they will be hard, dry and crisp. The dog treats will be hard for you to break in your hands--and better for your dog's teeth and gums.

• You can store these dog cookies for several months at room temperature.

If you would like to give the dog treats as a gift, serve them at a dog party or use them as a festive treat, you can decorate them with dog treat icing and sprinkles.

Your stars will be easier to decorate if you use a larger star cookie cutter to make bigger stars. You can always break them in half for a smaller dog.

Make sure you keep some pumpkin cookies on hand for the holidays.

You'll want to have pumpkin dog treats for Halloween, for Thanksgiving and for the Christmas holidays.
