Quality of Dogs' Treats
Do you know the quality of your dogs’ treats?
As the Holidays are approaching, we know a lot of people enjoy purchasing their pets and their friends pets tasty treats. Unfortunately, not all of the treats that are purchased online are safe for our four-legged friends.
I was contemplating selling our treats on Amazon, and did a quick search for our “competitors”. (I still haven’t made up my mind on this. I would love to hear what you think! Email me at vicki@coopersway.net) During a short weekend investigation I found a number of businesses selling treats, some at more affordable prices but they may not be licensed to sell, thus jeopardizing your pets health!
Why buy from a Licensed business? Licensed companies follow strict safety standards, are insured and pay diligent fees to ensure quality control.
* Licensed by Department of Agriculture, state where production occurs (Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, etc.)
*Send product out for pathogen and bacterial testing! Super important to insure a safe & healthy treat for your pawfriend.
What to look for to ensure the company you are purchasing from is legitimate:
Front labels:
contain the weight of the product in ounces and in grams
have an ingredient list
say “Made in a non-commercial kitchen, not for human consumption” since most small businesses can’t afford a commercial kitchen.
Name and contact info of the company
Back label:
will have a guaranteed analysis
Best by Date
Lot or batch #
Name & address of the company
