Dogs can join the Halloween fun without sharing the human candy bowl. Choose pet-specific treats, portion them thoughtfully and keep common hazards out of reach.

Choose treats with clear ingredients

A short ingredient list makes it easier to identify proteins that fit your dog’s diet. The Halloween Trick-or-Treat dog treat mix contains separate single-ingredient chicken, turkey, beef and fish chips in one seasonal assortment.

Use small portions

Break treats into smaller training-size pieces when practical. Treats should remain a limited part of a balanced diet, and dogs with allergies or medical dietary requirements should follow veterinary guidance.

Keep human candy separate

Chocolate, raisins and products containing xylitol can be dangerous to dogs. Store candy and wrappers securely, and ask visitors not to feed your pet from their bags.

Pair treats with enrichment

Small amounts of appropriate soft food can be spread over a Halloween dog lick mat. For supervised chewing and licking enrichment, consider the Vampire Bat enrichment toy.
