Whole Wheat Flour is so much better for humans and dogs than refined white flour. We use only the best pastry grade whole wheat flour to add body and natural taste to our pastries!
This creates fewer, smaller air pockets in baked goods resulting in a dense, delicious treat. Whole wheat flour includes all of the bran, germ and endosperm of the grain so it retains the natural vitamins and minerals.
Many of our treats are wheat free. Most of our wheat free treats have rye flour and spelt, an ancient grain. For dogs on a gluten free diet, we also make treats with rice flour & oats. The gluten free treats are a little more crumbly (think crispy not hard) than the original or rye treats, so we usually prefer to sell them in our store rather than shipping them – that way you receive a lovely box filled with bones rather than crumbs.
Carob has no relation to chocolate.
Cultivated for more than 4000 years, Carob is also known as St John’s bread and Locust Bean. John the Baptist is said to have lived on Carob when in the desert.
High in protein, naturally sweet, Carob also is rich in minerals and vitamins including calcium, phosphorous, iron, potassium, silicon, magnesium, vitamins B1 and B2, niacin and even some vitamin A. Low-fat, low sodium, high fiber, calcium rich and tasty too! That’s a great combination!
Peanut Butter is an ingredient in many of our treats. We use All Natural Peanut Butter. No salt. No oil. No additives. Peanut Butter is a great source of vitamin E, B3, Magnesium, dietary fiber and protein. It also contributes to a glossy, healthy coat. Elvis loved peanut butter and so does every dog we know!
Molasses is high in potassium and contains calcium, magnesium and iron. We use only UnSulphured molasses, then bake our puppy pastries as slow as molasses in June!
