NubOnubs are freeze dried to lock in flavor and nutrition. They’re perfect for positive reward training or just a daily snack.

Each bag contains 25-30 individual pieces and no refrigeration is required so you can take them on the go.

C’mon, every dog deserves a little nubn’…buy your dog a treat that not only tastes good, but that’s good for them!!

LickOchops is the correct ratio of Omega 6 to Omega 3 PLUS Natural Source Vitamin E in an easy to feed, yummy to dogs and cats formula. Just a small amount on your pets food and you begin to notice a healthy difference in your pet’s skin and coat.

Omega-3 fatty acids are building blocks that your dog or cat needs for a healthy heart and strong immune system. These very healthy types of Omega-3 fatty acids such as eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docsahexanoic acid (DHA), are found primarily in cold-water fish such as salmon, tuna, and mackerel. Fish oil supplies a variety of different Omega-3 fatty acids, including DHA and EPA, making it a SUPER source of these nutrients.

Normally priced at $8.99 each, buy our 6 pack for $39.99…that’s a 26% savings over our retail price!!

Do you have a finicky dog or cat??? No problem, just pour a little LickOchops on the food, mix the Dinovite in and watch them gobble it up!!

Feeding Instructions:
We recommend mixing a little Lickochops with your pet’s food, 1/2 to 1 teaspoon per cup of food.

Thanksgiving leftovers are probably filling up your fridge, so here’s a great recipe for you to try when you need to free up some storage space while treating your dog to something special.

A Turkey Omelet
1 egg
2 tablespoons mashed potatoes (NO SPICES!)
1/2 cup cooked veggies, chopped small (NO SPICES!)
1/4 cup cheese
1/2 cup cooked turkey

Heat up a bit of olive oil in a medium sized pan over medium heat. While the pan heat, beat together the egg and potatoes, then spread in the pan. Place the turkey and veggies on top of the egg mixture and cover. Simmer until the egg cooks and the top mixture warms; just be sure the egg is all cooked through! Then, sprinkle the cheese on top and let melt. Remove and cool. Then cut into pieces and store in the refrigerator. Serve as a special treat for the next few days. Enjoy!

Can’t you just smell the turkey roasting?

On Thursday, most of us will gather together with family and friends to give thanks over delicious foods that people look forward to all year long. Yes, Thanksgiving is really a special holiday.

However, if you’re including your dog in on the fun, be sure that you’re making the right choices when it comes to his diet and health. Here are some tips and guidelines to follow if your dog comes begging at the table during Thanksgiving dinner:

First off, if your dog has a sensitive stomach or other health issues, don’t give into the begging. Keep him restricted to dog food only but if you want to treat him, give him a dog biscuit or another natural dog treat that he’s allowed normally. Other natural treat substitutes that are great for dogs include raw carrot, a little bit of cheese, or freeze dried beef. Fresh pumpkin right from the can (just a spoonful!) can also be a great treat for your dog to enjoy, as can a little bit of natural, low sodium turkey broth. Avoid anything with lots of seasoning, garlic, salt, or onion, as these can cause digestive problems.

If you want to give your dog a little bit of turkey, first you’ll need to get rid of the skin. Turkey skin is high in fat and can be hard on the digestive system, plus, it may contain spices or seasonings used in cooking that can cause tummy trouble. Instead, choose a bit of breast meat and remove all the skin. Then, cut the turkey in to smaller pieces and feed a little at a time to your dog as a treat. Or, you can mix in a bit of shredded turkey with his regular kibble.

As for side dishes, remember that dogs have delicate digestive systems and need to be fed foods that are free of the spices we typically use. Onions and garlic can sometimes cause problems for dogs, so avoid feeding your dog any amount of side dish that uses these ingredients. Some plain cooked veggies (like carrot or broccoli) can be a nice treat. Pass on any gravies or sauces, as these too can cause issue.

Finally, Thanksgiving can be a time to overfeed your dog so be sure that you’re doing your part to reduce your dog’s risk of obesity. Feed him proper portions and don’t over indulge in people food. Keep it as a treat only. Remember – having an overweight dog means a higher risk of many common health problems, including pet cancer. Make sure that you’re doing everything you can to keep your dog properly nourished and within a healthy weight range. Have questions? Consult your vet.

And as always, have a Happy Thanksgiving!

Besides being Adopt a Pet Month, October is also Breast Cancer Awareness Month. In honor of cancer survivors and dog lovers everywhere, we’re sharing our Pink Ribbon Dog Biscuit Recipe. Enjoy!

For the treats:
1/2 cup margarine
3 cups whole wheat flour
1 cup cornmeal
3/4 cup hot chicken broth
1 egg, beaten
1/2 cup skim milk powder

In a large bowl, pour hot broth over the margarine. Stir in the powdered milk and egg. Add flour and corn meal and mix well. Then, knead the dough for 3 to 4 minutes, adding more flour as necessary to make a stiff dough. Once the dough is made, roll it out to about 1/2 inch thickness and use a ribbon cookie cutter to cut out biscuit shapes. Or, cut the dough into strips and fold to look like support ribbons. Bake on a greased cookie sheet at 325 degrees for 50 minutes. Once the biscuits cool, leave them out overnight to finish hardening. Then, use the icing recipe below to decorate them.

For the icing:
3 cups white carob chips (found in most health food stores)
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
Pink food coloring

Melt the chips in the microwave and add the vegetable oil and food color. Mix well. Dip the biscuits in the melted chips and let harden or using a pastry bag to pipe designs on each biscuit – it’s up to you!
