Here is a list of the best ingredient dog treats found. Anyone that knows of small businesses that have healthy treats, please email me to see if yours can be added to this list. These treats are grain free. At the bottom you have treats that do contain grains but are healthy ingredients. Organic are available in this list as well. When it comes to certain ingredients, they truly need to be organic due to molds and GMOs.
As I was surfing Etsy, I ran across many many small businesses selling dog treats. That's the good part. The bad part is, many of those companies are doing nothing more than selling the same crap sold in stores. For example, the images captured below of ingredients are a couple and ones you should avoid at all costs. So make sure you research these ingredients. Ones listed here below to avoid are:
Lecithin (soy)
Sugar
Vegetable oil
Corn Starch
Menadione Sodium Bisulfate
Cornmeal
Soybean oil
Baking Powder
Food coloring
Avoid wheat as well due to allergic reactions to grains.
Lecithin (soy)

Stay away from food colorings. And eggs: Eggs that say GMO free or cage free mean absolutely nothing. They must be pasture fed and/or organic. Pasture fed chickens are eating insects and bugs like they would on a healthy living farm. Our eggs in stores may say cage free, but they are still in a barn or huge metal building and crammed in wing to wing eating GMO grains. There is nothing healthy about this. You want pasture fed and organic.
I personally refuse to buy ANY store bought treats and I also filter out small mom and pop shops that THINK they are offering healthier treats and really aren't because they didn't do the research on ingredients. When purchasing from mom and pop shops, ask questions and do not buy a treat from them if they contain GMO and Glyphosate contaminated flours and eggs that are not pasture fed and/or organic. Or anyo f the above mentioned ingredients above

You may see red highlighted ingredients and that is the not good ingredients. If you see molasses or honey in red, it's only because of high sugar content and nothing more. It does not mean they are bad, just can be fattening.
Watch out for peanut butter that is not organic due to molds. Also check and make sure it doesn't contain Xylitol. The word natural does not mean organic. Contact maker of product to find out more. Also look for organic if possible. Those are your best. If it doesn't list what country, then it is undetermined at this time. Even though this list is of good ingredients, it is your decision on whether to purchase ones that are from another country. I do not recommend buying any products sourced from China or India. |
