We started Dogs and Pup back in 2019 as a way to help our own Dog Jake which you can see adorned in many places across our website and our advertising. Jake is whats known as a "silver" Labrador retriever. The same gene that causes his chocolate color to be diluted to silver also causes many other problems for Jake namely his skin and his coat. We always looked for something to help Jake and nothing ever did, which is why we decided to work with local places, bakeries etc to have a product that actually worked for his skin and coat and didn't break the bank. From there we moved into some other products like joint formulas. Labradors are a large breed of dog which automatically can open them up to possible joint problems later in life. That's why we added a second product for joint and gut health. Believe it or not many problems we have today and not just our pets can begin in the gut. Our goal has always been to not just help Jake with functional dog treats but to do so in as natural way as possible with products made right here in the USA under strict guidelines during manufacturing. We then began exploring ways to make our products better for the environment. Close to 15% of all the plastic made in the USA is used for pet suppliers. We intend to do things a different way. Our packing consists of glass containers and craft paper. With less than 1% plastic a our containers and packaging is easily recyclable and reusable. You no longer need to throw away your pet treat containers when you are done with them. We often setup drives for treats with local shelters as well as our pup of the month for free treats! Stay in touch on social media as we always have something going on and who knows maybe your pup will be the next Pup of the month and get some free stuff.
We hope you enjoy our products and your pup for many, many years to come!
Your Furever Friends,
Jake, Brian, Kristina and Carmen
