Supplier Spotlight: Why we Love Pooch’s Dog Treats
As a dog owner, there is a very specific feeling you get when you flip over a packet of treats, read the ingredients and instantly want to put them back on the shelf.
If you’ve been following by journey here at Distinctive Pets, you’ll know the whole reason I founded this business back in 2016 was born out of frustration. I was struggling to find good quality dog treats and nutrition for my own Labradors that weren’t packed with chemical preservatives, mysterious fillers and animal derivatives.
Then, I discovered Pooch’s Dog Treats.
It was an instant connection. Not just because my dogs absolutely loved them, but because the people behind Pooch’s share the same values that I hold dear. Today, I wanted to pull back the curtain and share a little bit about why I chose them as a trusted supplier, the ethos behind their business and why these baked goodies are the ultimate choice for your best friend.
The Story Behind the Bakers
When you buy from a small independent business, you are buying into a passion project. Pooch’s isn’t run by a corporate business; it’s run by dedicated dog lovers based in the heart of Norfolk.
Just like me, the founders started their journey right in their own kitchen, driven by a simple, powerful goal: to create a healthy natural dog treat that treats dogs like the family members they are. The looked at the mass-market, high-street options and realised our pets deserved better.
Every single bag of Pooch’s treats is developed with the help of a nutritionist and baked in small batches. When you hold a packet, you can see the care that went into it. They are slow baked to preserve nutrients and packed with love. They are traditional, honest British dg treats at their absolute best.
The Ethos: Complete Transparency and Fresh Ingredients
What truly set Pooch’s apart for me – and why they’ve remained a staple on the Distinctive Pets shelves – is their unwavering commitment to ingredients.
A lot of commercial dog treats hide behind vague terms like “ meat and animal derivatives” Pooch’s does things differently. Their ethos is built on total transparency. If a treat says it is chicken and carrot, it contains real chicken and real carrots.
· Locally Sourced Ingredients: They prioritise sourcing their fresh mean and ingredients locally, supporting regional British Farming.
· No Hidden Fillers: You won’t find artificial colourings, chemical preservatives, or hidden salts and sugars in these bags.
· Low Fat, High Rewards: Because they use lean, quality meat and wholesome oats, these treats are fantastic for weight management – something we Labrador owners have to be incredibly mindful of.
Why Peanut and I Use Them Every Single Day
If you ask my brand ambassador, Peanut, she will tell you that Pooch’s are the gold standard. From a practical, dog-owner perspective, these treats have completely transformed our daily routine, especially during the brighter summer months.
Because they are slowly baked, they have a brilliant crunchy texture. They don’t turn into a greasy, crumbly mess at the bottom of my treat bag. I pop them straight into my handmade embroidered treat bags before we head out for a countryside walk or a training session.
Because they are made with real meat they are easily digestible. I have complete peace of mind that won’t trigger any sensitive tummies or skin flares.
From One Dog Lover to Another. We want our dogs to live the longest, happiest lives possible. The food and treats we put into their bodies today build their health span for tomorrow.
When you purchase Pooch’s treat through Distinctive Pets, you aren’t just buying a snack – you are supporting a network of independent British makers who refuse to compromise on quality. It’s premium, honest nutrition passed from our hands to yours.
