Let’s talk about cat treats… Meow has officially transitioned over to being freeze dried. With only three ingredients; salmon, chicken, agar.

The taste testing has been 10s across the board! They are crystallized through the freeze drying process, I think it looks kind of cool.

One of the last baked and dehydrated treats left on the menu… these little training treats have always been a popular choice and I love that they’ve made the transition to new packaging! 🖤

The bone broth used in The Bark’s freeze dried treats is simmered for 30+ hours. This slow cook allows for all the meat, marrow and collagen to become a rich and nutritious broth. Just another example of high quality ingredients and sustainable practices, you know… the good stuff.

Freeze Dried Coho Salmon is a crowd pleaser. A popular choice for those who have both cats and dogs. Sustainably farmed. Local. Single ingredient goodness.

Sometimes, when I have an extra twelve seconds, I make pretty wrapping paper for orders.

When I was younger, I never thought I was a particularly crafty person. Turns out I am! Just not the scrapbooking, paper machè kind of way..

The weight of these brass tags is just perfection. ☀️

02/16/2024

Just wanted to make sure everybody still has enough pink in there feed after Valentine’s Day.

These have been getting packaged up and out the door as quick as I can make them.

Local grass fed goat kefir and raspberries are a winning combo.

FREEZE DRIED APPLE AND BEEF

These three ingredient beauties are a crowd pleaser so far! The perfect size for training, or a regular treat for small dogs. They are crunchy and packed with flavour.

Apples are harvested on my property. The beef component is a rich and meaty bone broth, made over the course of a day with neck bones and oxtail. Agar bumps up the fibre and makes these bites even healthier.

Available on the website and select stores

Do you prefer Aluminum or Brass? I’m partial to that chunky Brass! These hand cut tags are heavy duty and stunning.

A revamp to the Freeze Dried Pork Liver that was offered in the past, I’ve found an another supplier that has a few more options.

Available now online and select stores. Pork Three Ways adds a little variety to your dog’s diet with freeze dried heart, tongue and liver all packed into this fun little party mix.

A couple different variations of a new treat in the works this week, just in case there wasn’t already enough going on!

My plan is to incorporate three or four ingredients, that I’ve struggled to make use of in the past, into a freeze dried bite size treat.

Sometimes working towards a circular economy, while creating superior products, takes a little more time. I feel it’s worth it!

For anyone who has been with The Bark from the beginning, you know how strongly I’ve always felt about creating quality products using local ingredients.

I’m thrilled to have been accepted into the program. In the new year, you’ll see all products sporting this look. I’m proud to be able to display this logo along side my own.

Missing my ginger babies. I have had Fanc for 20 years. How crazy is that?! And Corri since the moment he was born. Although I used to board them, I’ve had them home for 4 years and they’ve been part of my everyday life. Can’t wait to get into the new place and bring them home. Still managing to get some treat things done but looking forward to cranking it back up to full speed!.. 🫠
