Gourmet Organic Dog Treats #Giveaway from Paw Street Barkery | #TastyTuesday

Any day will be a party with pet treats from Paw Street Barkery!  Jeffie, Rudy and Rosie were delighted to be asked to taste tests some very tasty dog treats from this organic pet bakery.  


You can try some, too, if you're the lucky winner of a Paw Street Barkery $25 gift certificate!

Founded in 2009 with the name The Barkers Dozen, Paw Street Barkery is on a mission to provide homemade organic pet treats. We'd say this Chicopee, Massachusetts company is doing just that.


Paw Street Barkery brand organic dog treats use the highest-quality, human-grade organic ingredients and are made in a variety of shapes and sizes to satisfy any furry friend. Their gourmet dog treats are made on demand and in small batches to ensure the freshest product possible for their customers, without using artificial preservatives. The fresh-baked treats are then packaged in eco-friendly renewable or recycled materials.

As part of its culture of social responsibility and to give back to its local community, Paw Street Barkery employs staff from the Aditus group, a non-profit that helps those with special needs to be able to enter the work force. In addition, the company donates a portion of its profits from every sale to two animal shelters in its local market.

Gourmet dog treats from Paw Street Barkery
We received three different dog treat products to taste test and review:
  • Blueberry Bone-anza Gluten Free Organic Dog Treats
  • Carob Peanut Butter Cup Dog Treats
  • Big Dipper Dog Treats
Blueberry Bone-anaza, Carob Peanut Butter Cup, Big Dipper gourmet organic dog treats from Paw Street Barkery

Blueberry Bone-anza Gluten Free Organic Dog Treats  - retail price $7.99 for a 4 oz bag
Made from organic and all-natural ingredients, these Blueberry Bone-anza Gluten Free Dog Treats are made of such base organic ingredients that they can be eaten by those dogs with even the most sensitive of stomachs and gluten allergies. These treats are the latest in Paw Street Barkery line of gourmet dog treats, and came out as the preferred flavor by a panel of doggie taste testers.
The new Blueberry Bone-anza treats are made with organic, human-grade ingredients, just like the rest of Paw Street Barkery portfolio of baked goods for dogs. 

What separates this flavor of treats from the rest of the company’s varieties is that it is gluten-free, meaning it does not contain wheat flour or products. This ensures that dogs with allergies or sensitive systems can enjoy wholesome, gourmet dog treats, and their owners can provide them with confidence. The new flavor of dog treats contains no artificial flavors or preservatives, and the treats are baked on-demand to ensure freshness and quality

What we loved about these dog treats:
  • Organic, human grade ingredients
  • Gourmet "fancy" dog treats
  • Taste - the dogs loved them!
Though I admit I would not give my dogs fancy treats like the Carob Peanut Butter Cup and Big Dipper dog treats every day, they'd make very festive special occasion treats.  The Blueberry Bone-anza dog treats are in an adorable fire hydrant shape and are small enough to be a very tasty training treat.  Jeffie really loved these.

Paw Street Barkery also has some barking good gift pack and sampler assortments including:  doggie cakes, adoption gift boxes, and you can even create your own custom gift baskets.   What a great idea for a special dog birthday, Gotcha Day or other special event.

What's not to like?!

Dog Treats - Holiday Gift Guide for Dogs and Dog Lovers



It's no secret, Jeffie, Rudy and Rosie love to eat!  They're very food motivated and especially love dog treats.  We've taste tested lots of brands and many different kinds, but these are some of their favorites.  Your dog would love to find these yummy products in their Christmas stocking!


Evanger's Dog Food


The Talking Dogs love Evanger's dog treat and dog food!  We've reviewed several of their products and their canned dog food is a favorite at our house as a kibble topper.

Because a full course Thanksgiving or Christmas turkey dinner is not altogether healthy for dogs, we were thrilled when this company sent us some of their Evanger's Organics Turkey with Potato and Carrots Dinner.  Jeffie, Rudy and Rosie can hardly wait!

Delicious and nutritious!  With only 104 kcals/can, I don't have to worry about the calories.  With organic martket-fresh vegetables, I don't have to worry about the ingredients.  In fact, Evanger's Organics are certified organic by Oregon Tilth.  Plus they're hormone, anitibiotic and grain free.

That's a lot of tasty goodness to bark about!  We highly recommend Evanger's Organics!  Best retail price we've found is $31.13 for a case of 12 (13 ounce) cans at Chewy.com


Paw Street Barkery

Make every day a party with gourmet organc dog treats from Paw Street Barkery!

We just discovered this boutique dog bakery this year and I'm so glad we did.  Paw Street Barkery brand organic dog treats use the highest-quality, human-grade organic ingredients and are made in a variety of shapes and sizes to satisfy any furry friend. Their gourmet dog treats are made on demand and in small batches to ensure the freshest product possible for their customers, without using artificial preservatives. The fresh-baked treats are then packaged in eco-friendly renewable or recycled materials.

The dog treats shown here are some of my dogs' favorites:  Blueberry Bone-anza Gluten Free Organic Dog Treats, Carob Peanut Butter Cup Dog Treats and Big Dipper (dog bone shaped) Dog Treats.  We served them at Rudy's birthday party and they were a big hit! Fetch our full review here.  Retail prices for each kind of biscuit vary.

Ledfoot's Pet Bakery

I love supporting small boutique businesses, especially when they're selling handmade products and Ledfoot's Pet Bakery is a great example of just that.

Ledfoots Pet Bakery begin in 2006 when their first puppy was getting sick from store bought dog treats.  After doing a lot of research, they arrived at a variety of homemade dog and cat treats that are healthy and safe. Ledfoots Pet Bakery dog treats are homemade with the finest human grade ingredients in Genoa, Illinois.  The treats are made in small batches and everything is done by hand. Just like homemade dog cookies, but without the hassle of kitchen cleanup!  Retail prices for each kind of dog treat vary.

Lincoln Bark

It may be shallow of me, but one thing I like about Lincoln Bark's Sweet Little Butterpup Dog Treats is the name itself!  It's been a few years since the first time we tried these, but they remain a firm favorite of the Talking Dogs.

Made in the USA, these dog treats contain gluten free rice flour and potato flour, soy free peanut butter, rolled oats, honey, canola oil, Chia seed and water.  They do NOT contain preservatives, additives, artificial colors or flavors.

We'd heard of Chia Seed and this motivated us to learn more.  Often called a superfood, Chia Seed promotes health with more antioxidants that blueberries and eight times more Omega-3 Fatty Acids than wild salmon.  

Lincoln Bark evolved after the owners dog was diagnosed with Addison's disease when she was two years old.  Needing to boost her food intake, they began researching canine nutrition and baking their own dog treats.  Today, Sweet Little Butterpup dog treats still are baked by hand in small batches with 100% natural, human grade ingredients.  Retail price: $11.99 
 
 




Talking Dogs has reviewed many different dog treats and you can find our recommendations in our product reviews

* Though we may have received dog treat samples from these companies in the past, only Evanger's sent us samples for this article (3 cans of their Organic Turkey Dinner for dogs.)   Talking Dogs only shares information we feel is relevant to our readers and the companies mentioned here are not responsible for the content of this article.

We're joining the Tasty Tuesday blog hop today.  This is a blog hop that celebrates good food, sponsored by Sugar the Golden Retriever and Kols Notes.
