Try slippery elm instead, mix it in water, tastes like a light herbal tea. Great for people too!
If you google it, you can find lots of 411 on it: https://vcahospitals.com/know-your-pet/slippery-elm

I've never read anything bad about pumpkin for dogs. That said, I do trust the VCA Hospitals article about slippery elm. I tried slippery elm when I was a kid, and I remember it being very slimy and yucky. Dogs aren't as picky as humans, and they might eat or drink it, especially if you hide it in their food or water.
