Pumpkin Fruit Sticks (recipe)

I've been trying to work in a variety of fruits and veggies into the dog's diet. I tried to alter one of my recipes to get the dogs to eat fruit because fruit is good for them.  The dogs liked them, but I wasn't all that happy with this recipe.  The biscuits didn't get as hard as I would have liked. 

Ok so these ones don't look like sticks, but you can put them in a piping back and make them look like sticks.
