What Are Natural Dog Treats Good For?

Why more Aussie pups are switching to natural dog treats?

When it comes to spoiling our dogs, treats are a must—but not all treats are made the same. More pet parents are choosing natural dog treats over commercial ones, and for good reason. Let’s dig into why natural dog treats are better for your pup.

 

Natural Dog Treats vs. Commercial Treats

Natural dog treats are made from real, recognisable ingredients—like chicken, lamb, or kangaroo. They’re usually dehydrated or freeze-dried to lock in nutrients, with no artificial flavours, colours, or preservatives.

In contrast, many commercial dog treats are heavily processed. They often contain fillers, added sugars, synthetic chemicals, and artificial colours that may be harmful over time.

The difference? Natural dog treats are exactly what dogs should be eating—pure protein, packed with natural flavour and essential nutrition.

 

Why Natural Treats Are Better for Dogs

Choosing natural treats can support your dog’s:

Digestive health – no fillers = happy tummies

Skin and coat – thanks to high-quality proteins and healthy fats

Training – breakable, bite-sized, and tasty rewards

Overall wellness – no nasties, just real food

Plus, dogs love the taste. You’ll notice the difference the moment you open the pack—it smells real because it is real!

It’s all part of our mission to help dogs live healthier, happier—one treat at a time.
