About Us
Our History
We grew up in the countryside with dogs, always having Labs. Our close bonds with our dogs led us to love all breeds. As we got older, we recognized the importance of eating healthy for both us and our dogs. Wanting to ensure the health of our pets, we decided to bake our own dog treats using only the healthiest ingredients. However, as we delved into dog health, we discovered that many commercial biscuits contain filler grains and flavorings. Some even use spent brewer's rice, which is rice used in the brewing process.
Our Goal
To ensure the healthiest treats for our dog, we researched and opted for human-grade ingredients that are slow-baked from raw, preserving nutritional value and eliminating harmful bacteria. As we looked into making our own treats, we discovered the complexities involved in achieving premium quality. Recognizing the need for a reliable manufacturer, we sought a company that could uphold high standards. Surprisingly, we found no regulations for pet treat manufacturing in Canada, prompting us to delve further into creating top-quality treats for our dog.
We discovered a facility certified at the highest level by the Global Food Safety Initiative (SQF). Although not mandatory for dog treats in Canada, this certification ensures adherence to global safety and quality standards. Upon finding this facility, we welcomed them into our team. As two Canadian individuals passionate about our dog's health and eager to make a positive impact, we established our company, "The Old Dawg Treat Co.," in honor of our Dad. Grateful for his guidance, we're excited to introduce our first six dog treats, designed for nutritional variety. Stay tuned for our upcoming human-grade, slow-baked dog training treats. Thank you for visiting, and we're confident your dog will adore our treats!
Our treats consist of a single natural ingredient
That's why we exclusively offer the Old Dawg Treats line, which is responsibly sourced and processed in an SQF level 3 certified facility with no colors, additives or preservatives
