6 Spooky Dog-Friendly Recipes You Need to Make This Halloween

To me, an ideal Halloween is spending the night curled on the couch with my furry friend while watching horror movies and devouring a bag of Reese’s pumpkins. Unfortunately, our canine companions can never experience the joy of Halloween candy. However, I would feel terrible if I was eating super tasty treats in front of my pup without offering her anything. For this reason, I’m planning on making some dog-friendly Halloween-themed treats so she can also have something delicious on All Hallows Eve. 

If you have time, we recommend you do the same for your furry friend.

Here are six tasty dog treats that are relatively easy to make just in time for Halloween. (Just a quiet disclaimer -- talk to your pup’s vet to make sure the ingredients listed are safe for your dog).
