Nutrition Tip:
Pumpkin is an easy way to pump up your pup's diet! Not only is it yummy, but it's a digestion wizard. With vitamins A, C, and E, and minerals like iron and potassium, a dollop of plain canned pumpkin is a nutritional jackpot for your furry friend. Pumpkiny fiber helps clean the colon and lower its ph, creating just the right environment for healthy bacteria to thrive.
