IS TURMERIC SAFE FOR DOGS?

In small quantities, turmeric is safe and a healthy spice for dogs. As well as giving any food or treats a yellow colour, turmeric has anti-inflammatory benefits. It may help with joint pain and allergies.

Turmeric may also help with diarrhea, acting as a binding agent due to it's fiber content.

INGREDIENTS

Just a handful of ingredients are used to make this grain free turmeric dog treat recipe.

We have use two of our favourite low carb and grain free flours that are also safe for dogs.

turmeric treat ingredients
  • Pumpkin Puree - We make our own but if you use tinned do not use pumpkin pie filling. That may contain ingredients that are not safe for your dog.
  • Coconut Flour - Is a good low carb and grain free flour for dogs.
  • Ground Flaxseed - Either golden or dark can be used.
  • Nutritional Yeast - A good source of protein and amino acids.
  • Eggs - Another great source of protein.
  • Turmeric - This spice is a great anti-inflammatory ingredient and can help with arthritis.

Remember to go slowly when introducing new foods. And we recommend checking with your veterinarian first if your dog has any digestive issues or other health concerns.

HOW TO MAKE TURMERIC DOG TREATS

This is an easy one bowl recipe. We roll out the dough and use a dog treat cutter but you could cut out the shapes by hand. Let's face it, the fun shapes are more for us than our dogs!

Many low carb flours are best rolled out in between two layers of parchment paper as they can be a bit sticky.

  3. Cut the treats out with a cookie cutter.

These homemade pumpkin turmeric dog treats are easy to store and freeze. As they contain eggs it is best to store these in the refrigerator. Keep them in an air tight container.
