Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, pumpkin puree, and egg. Mix until smooth and well-combined.
Slowly add the rolled oats and whole wheat flour to the wet mixture, stirring until a thick dough forms.
Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the dough to about 1 centimeter (1/4 inch) thickness.
Use a small cookie cutter (bone shapes are fun!) to cut out the treats, and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Gather and re-roll the dough scraps as needed until all the dough is used.
Bake the treats in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and firm to the touch.
Allow the treats to cool completely before serving them to your dog. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks or freeze for longer storage.
