Organic Freeze-Dried Pumpkin Dog Treats

Unfortunately, dog treats aren’t regulated for ingredient quality, processing methods, or long-term health side effects.

Manufacturers are allowed to use highly processed ingredients like "rendered animal by-products" which are highly processed meat remnants, organs, and other tissue from animals not approved for human consumption (including dead, dying, or disabled animals prior to processing - yuck!), synthetic additives and fillers, and more to boost flavor, reduce costs, and extend shelf life.

Many treats are cooked at super high temperatures which can destroy nutrients and reduce their bioavailability (meaning even if protein content appears high on the label, your dog absorbs less of it), and oxidize fats (which can cause inflammation and increase risk of disease in your dog).

Veterinarians and scientists recognize highly processed treats are associated with weight gain, digestive stress, and increased risk of chronic health issues.

The Hearty Paw was created to do things differently by prioritizing ingredient integrity, minimal processing, and your dog’s lifelong wellness over shortcuts.

At The Hearty Paw, every treat we carry is something we’d confidently give our own dogs to support their health and satisfy their tastebuds. We rigorously assess every dog treat for quality and benefit, prioritizing nutritious, whole ingredients and minimal processing. Unsurprisingly, most treats don’t make The Hearty Paw cut.

Our selection includes human-grade options, USDA-certified organic ingredients, grass-fed and wild-caught proteins, and treats made without GMOs, artificial preservatives, or unnecessary additives whenever possible.

Support your dog’s digestion with a minimally processed, nutrient-dense treat made from a single whole food ingredient. Plant Dog Freeze-Dried Pumpkin Treats for Dogs are made with 100% organic pumpkin, delivering natural fiber, vitamins, and antioxidants in a clean, easy-to-digest format.

Gently freeze-dried to preserve nutrients and natural flavor, these natural dog treats are free from grains, fillers, and artificial additives. Pumpkin is commonly used to support digestive health and can also contribute to skin and coat wellness as part of a balanced diet, making these minimally processed dog treats a thoughtful option for dogs with sensitive stomachs or dietary restrictions.

These freeze-dried dog treats can be served in multiple ways. Offer them as a crunchy reward, crumble them over meals for added nutrition, or rehydrate with water for a softer, gut-friendly snack. Low in calories and made with a single plant-based ingredient, they provide a clean, versatile way to support everyday wellness with simple, whole food nutrition.
