I have noticed many people jumping on the ole bandwagon ofmaking homemade dog treats. I have nothing against this as there are many dogs out there, so there is enough demand for suppliers. My issue is many of the people doing this, go to a book store, buy a dog recipe book and start baking. If you look at these recipes books, they use off the shelf human products which have preservatives, additives, coloring artificial flavors, etc. granted, these products may not be as harmful as commercial dog treats, but they are still not healthy. Many recipes use whole wheat flour, unbleached flour, rice flour, soy flour. All of which are not the best thing for dogs and are main causes of allergies. Milk is one of the worse things you could use. Eggs are not the best either. And vegetable and safflower oil are total NO-NOs.
We at The Pink Poodle use only certified, organic ingredients from USA sources. We are actually looking for land to produce our own organic ingredients. This has been a way of life for me for almost 2 decades. I am certified in Holistic Care for companion animals, practice accupressure on all my dogs and only natural remedies. To me animals are just like us and needed to be treated as such. It is a passion for me.
