This is a question we get sometimes at in-person events. The short answer is – YES dogs can eat durian and jackfruit. We made sure of it before we included it into our very popular treats. The longer answer is more nuanced. Durian and Jackfruit are fruits that are naturally high in sugar and carbohydrates, alongside their natural nutrients and […]read more
As much as we enjoy developing and making fun treats that combine various ingredients, whether for colour, flavour, scent or texture, we always remember the reason we started – single ingredient dog treats. Single ingredient treats are just that – treats made with 1 single ingredient, 1 single protein. It could be a jerky, a meat chunk, or a chew, […]read more
