Dog Treats That Your Canine Pets Will Love

Just as much as you enjoy snacks in between your meals from time to time, your dog also enjoy munching on food that is different from his regular meals in the form of treats. Usually, dog treats are given to pooches as premiums for their good behavior, when they follow basic commands, or anything that falls in between. If given in right servings, treats could actually enhance the diets of our canine pets. But, more often than not, many dog owners tend to give their furry friends extra quantities of treats whenever they see that adoring look in their pets' faces, thereby exposing them to hazards that could alter their diets.



Unfortunately, most commercial dog treats are similar to human treats - junk food products that are filled with artificial sweeteners, preservatives and other synthetic ingredients. These things are what make treats highly palatable for your pet but in fact are dangerous to his health especially if given in excessive quantities. When evaluating the quality of treats that you intend to feed your dog, you have to go back to the label detective that you are when you are inspecting your pet's meals. It can be a chore, but it is important. Try not to choose treats that are packed with ingredients that are engineered to taste and smell good but have little nutritive value, and never be persuaded by fancy packaging.



Because the market is brimming with commercial canine treats that are often dangerous to your pet's health, you're probably thinking if there are still healthy treats that you could give to your dog. However, it might be a relief to know that a growing number of dog food companies are now straying from their junky ways and are moving forward to provide canine pets with healthy meals and treats. In fact, there are many dog food companies that make natural and organic dog treats supplemented with herbs that eliminates oral health problems and omega acids that helps promote healthy skin and shiny coats. Two of the most noteworthy dog food brands that make healthy and all natural treats are Wellness and Canidae.



As a brief background, Wellness dog food is actually created by Old Mother Hubbard Company, which was originally established in 1926 as a sub-company for a family's baking enterprise. The said company was then bought by an animal expert from Lowell, Massachusetts and from there Wellness emerged. During 1990s, under the leadership of CEO Jim Scott Jr., Wellness canine products where developed; however, it took almost a decade before their dog meals were introduced on the market. Wellness is a well established company that has been a pioneer in the production of healthy dog food products. Currently, it remains as one of the most trusted healthy canine food producers in the market.



Wellness dog food adhere to the belief that "you are what you eat," and they ensure that their canine food products, including their treats, are made from the finest ingredients that are packed with the necessary nutrients to promote the overall well being of canine pets. As they are committed to improve the quality of animal health and welfare, they warrant dog owners that every package of their edible dog products are cautiously formulated by a team of expert veterinarians and pet nutritionists. As a result, all the variants of their canine food mixes and treats are composed of all natural and human-quality ingredients free of animal by-products, artificial colors and preservatives.



On the other hand, Canidae dog food was first introduced in the market in 1993. Just like Wellness, Canidae dog products are only formulated from all natural ingredients, packed with premium holistic nutrition for pooches. Their ever popular original gourmet snap biscuits comes with high quality chicken and turkey. And they also come with lamb, valuable fruits, herbs and vegetables, filled with omega fatty acids and viable micro-organisms that are healthy for pets. Similarly, their original snap bits also contain the same ingredients mentioned above but are made in bite sizes, making them appropriate as training treats for canines' of smaller lineage.
