This is the first Halloween for Charlie, our King Charles Cavalier, and our first ever Halloween with a puppy in tow. Since he came into our lives last winter, he’s become very much apart of our family and goes wherever we go. Camping, on walks, school pickups, we involve him in our usual day-to-day events. He’ll even be in the Christmas card photo this year!
So it only goes without saying that Charlie will very much be apart of our Halloween festivities this year. Even though Halloween is still weeks away, I’ve been thinking about how to celebrate involve him in our Halloween celebration. Of course he’ll have a cute costume for the traditional trick or treating, though there’s so many adorable options – I just can’t decide on what he should be!
I recall from previous years that many kids come to the door trick or treating, with their families and their dogs with them. So, why shouldn’t dogs get a special treat too? They should be actively apart of all the excitement as well!
This Halloween I’ll be prepared with treats for the kids, and the furry friends who come to our door – with these Halloween Treat Bags for Dogs which are so super simple to make!
All you need is some small burlap bags {frugal buy at the dollar store}, a black permanent marker, festive Halloween ribbon, and some Big Heart Pet Brands {Milk-Bone, Pup-Peroni and/or Milo’s Kitchen} dog treats.
Take each burlap bag and using the black permanent marker, draw some paw prints on the front. Easy peesy!
Then, fill each bag with some delicious dog treats. Our Charlie loves Milk-Bone, Pup-Peroni and Milo’s Kitchen – so I chose both the hard Milk-Bone biscuits and the soft treats, as well as some Pup-Peroni. You might have to snap the Pup-Peroni in half to fit into the bag.
As you can see, Charlie was very curious as to what I was doing with his favourite treats, and made sure to supervise what I was doing. His assistance in this easy DIY project was rewarded! Mmmm!
Once you have each bag filled with Big Heart Pet Brands dog treats, tie a piece of Halloween ribbon around each one, and you’re done!
Making this easy Halloween Treat Bags for Dogs literally takes minutes, so it’s perfect for even the non-crafters out there. I cannot wait to give goodies to both kids and their furry family members when they visit us this Halloween – it’s a small DIY project with big results!

Such a sweet idea! There are always so many dogs walking along with parents on Halloween – this would be such a nice surprise 🙂
What a cute idea. I am sure my Milo would love his own treat bag this Halloween.
Holy moly! I’ve got to make these for my dogs. These little bags are so cute, and my dogs would love them.
Cute idea!
This is such an awesome idea Tammi! A lot of people do bring their pets with them and I’m sure they enjoy a treat on a special occasion like Halloween too. Most pet owners dress their pets up for Halloween too so it’s only right 😉
Aw, I love the little paw prints on the burlap sacks! We always have gifts on hand for the pet trick or treaters (There are a lot in our community.)
Oh, this is such a great idea. We take the dogs trick and treating. They would love to get a bag of treats, too.
This is a fun idea to spoil the pets. I can’t wait to get a new dog and spoil them rotten! Love your idea for the bags they are adorable.
Oh my gosh those are such cute little Halloween Treat Bags!! What a great idea, the paw prints are adorable!
These are stinking cute! What doggy would’t love to be included in the trick or treat fun!
Such a cute idea for the furry friends!!
These are so cute and perfect. I may make some to have on hand Halloween night for any pups that come around with their owners.
These are adorable. I know my pup would be thrilled to get his own treat bag this Halloween.

We just got a dog and I am figuring out what treats he likes. This us such a cute craft for dog owners.
What a great idea! I am head over heels for my pups so I want to always include them, so this is such a great idea! I’ll be doing this for my pups!
These are so cute! I will definitely be making some for my sister’s dog, my MIL’s dog, and my BIL’s dog!
Oh my goodness, how adorable. I love it. I need to do these for my little pups. Oh and those paw prints? AWESOME 🙂
I love the idea of Halloween treat bags for dogs! The apartment complex we used to live would always have treats for the dogs for just about every holiday and I thought it was the most clever thing. Let’s just say our dogs were spoiled.
This is a fantastic idea. I will have to make up a few of these for my Sisters dogs when they come over. I love how easy they are to make.
Aww this is such a sweet idea! They’ll definitely be happy with that assortment of treats inside!
What a cute idea to give treats for dogs on Halloween! Sometimes I see dogs get dressed up too – haven’t they earned a treat for having to go out in public like that?
These are such a great idea. There are so many dogs on Halloween night and it would be great to include them in the trick-or-treating.
Oh I love the burlap sacks with the paw prints,so cute and a great idea!
How cute are these! what a great idea. Cute share.
We have two furry friends so this is definitely on our to do list. I am loving this idea!
That’s absolutely adorable! And very creative.
I give out treats to the animals every Halloween but never thought to make cute little bags. Going to try to make some of them; lots of animals in my area
