Fall is a wonderful time of year, filled with crisp air, colorful leaves, and a sense of coziness. As the seasons change, so do our cravings for delicious autumn treats. And what better way to celebrate the arrival of fall than by pampering yourself with a cup of pumpkin spice latte and whipping up a pumpkin spice puppuccino for your pup?

If you want your pup to join in the seasonal fun try creating a canine version of this season’s favorite, pumpkin spice latte. Making a pumpkin spice puppuccino for your pups is a breeze, and you can do it right in the comfort of your own home.

All you need are a few simple ingredients: pumpkin puree, non-dairy milk, whipped cream, and your choice of dog treats. This combination will give the puppuccino that classic pumpkin spice flavor we love.

This delightful concoction has become our dog’s new favorite way to savor the flavors of the season! If you’re ready to make one for your furry baby, here’s how to.

Here’s what you’ll need to make the pumpkin spice puppuccino:

1. Pumpkin Purée

2. Coconut Milk

3. Whipped Cream (No Xylitol)

4. Pumpkin Spice Dog Treats

Here are the benefits of these ingredients for dogs:

Pumpkin Purée: It is packed with fiber and essential vitamins, making it a great addition to your dog’s diet. It can help with digestion and promote a healthy coat.

Coconut Milk: It adds a creamy texture to the Puppuccino. It’s not only delicious but also a source of healthy fats that can benefit your dog’s skin and coat. It provides a tasty alternative for lactose-intolerant dogs.

Whipped Cream (No Xylitol): This adds a decadent touch to this treat. Be sure to choose a whipped cream without xylitol, a sugar substitute that can be harmful to dogs. 

How to make Pumpkin Spice Puppuccino:

1. Put the pumpkin puree and coconut milk in a blender.

2. Blend for 15-20 seconds or until smoothly combined.

3. Pour the mixture into cups; we used Starbucks sample cups (those that you get when you order pup cups for your dogs)

4. Top each cup with whipped cream, make sure it’s xylitol-free.

5. Garnish with pumpkin spice dog treats of your choice and let your pup enjoy the flavors of fall

This fall, let your pups indulge in the season’s flavors with a homemade pumpkin spice puppuccino. It’s a simple and delicious way to show your pup just how much you want them to enjoy the season just as much as you do. Cheers to autumn and sharing its little joys with our best friends.

Reminder: 

While these homemade treats are delicious and healthy, it’s essential to remember that not all human foods are safe for dogs. Always consult your vet before introducing new treats into your pet’s diet, especially if they have any dietary restrictions or allergies. Additionally, ensure that all the ingredients used are dog-safe and free of harmful substances like xylitol.

Make sure that the whipped cream you’re using does not contain xylitol. This is often found in sugar-free products and is toxic to dogs.
