Storing - This recipe, as well as other recipes for pet treats, can be stored for later enjoyment. Since they are baked quite hard, you can keep them in an air tight container for approximately 2 weeks. If you bake a softer pumpkin pie biscuit, you can store them in the refrigerator for 4 weeks, and in the freezer for 6 months.

Yield - You will get around 100 cookies using a small 1 inch cookie cutter. You most likely will get two baking sheets full of cookies, no matter what size cookie cutter you use.
