Pumpkin & Carrot Recipe (6 Oz) Soft & Chewy, Training Treats
$9.95
We focused on what’s important as we designed our new Training Treat:
- Size & Shape – needs to be small so it can be eaten quickly without distracting from the task at hand; also needs to be easy to hold
- Low Calorie – learning something new takes many repetitions so we need to try to keep our treat calories under control – these are under 3 calories
- Convenience – the treat needs to be easy to carry in your pocket or treat bag and definitely not greasy or crumbly
- Healthy – treats should be healthy and perhaps even able to supplement your dog’s normal diet with added health benefits (example: omegas, vitamins, fiber, etc)
- Delicious – a bit subjective, however, treats must excite your dog otherwise they will not work as a training tool
We also thought a lot about which ingredients to include:
– PUMPKIN – this bright orange veggie is rich in carotenoids, beta-carotene, alphacarotene, fiber, zinc, iron, vitamin A, and potassium. Good for the tummy and promotes eye health.
– CARROTS – contain pro-vitamin A, betacarotene, vitamins B, C, D, E and K, and riboflavin, niacin, calcium, potassium, phosphorus, sodium, iron, magnesium, manganese, sulphur, copper and iodine.
– OATS – rich in vitamins B5 and B9, minerals such as zinc, iron, manganese, copper, folic acid and biotin (optimal for keeping fur in good condition). They are a source of soluble fiber that works to regulate cholesterol and all intestinal processes, helping to reduce problems such as constipation, diarrhea, gas and even vomiting. They also improve red blood cell production.
– CRICKET PROTEIN – a complete protein with all of the essential amino acids. A natural source of taurine. Iron, omegas, fiber, and the list goes on and on. It is also a hypoallergenic, sustainable and humane protein source!
