Hi, folks here at 8 Paws Approved we are up to curious things resulting in new awesome ideas for your pups and kitties. One of our top priorities is to make sure that what ever we are making for your pups is highly nutritious and delicious. I spend a good amount of time attending pet summits on nutrition so that I have qualified professional advice from those who know before I create my recipes. However, I think we have made a grand mistake!! 🤯 Well, it's probably not a mistake per se, but it's certainly is a mistake for my house! As you know, I am a home based business and therefore all of the preparing, baking, and dehydrating all happens here at home. Well, today we have decided to experiment with green tripe. Now, I have made tripe treats in the past, however, it has been with a blanched cleaned tripe. While having extra calories is necessary for lactating or pregnant mamas, I feel like the nutrition value was fairly depleted in the cleaning process of the tripe I used. Therefore, I purchased a small amount of green tripe to dehydrate to see if it would be something I would add to my menu offerings going forward. NOW I understand why this is NOT a common item bakers make outside of maybe say a commercial environment.Ya know where they don't have to live! At first, just handling the tripe was a pretty stinky endeavor. And I had known from doing nutritional research that it could be a pretty smelly process dehydrating it. But for the love of puppies, the foul stomach wrenching stench is beyond nauseating! 😝🤢 It could take 24-48 hours to fully dehydrate. I'm sure the dogs think it's wonderful. I absolutely do not.😨 This could be the only time I offer this so if you happen to see me at my next few markets and there are some tripe rings or twists left, GET 'em while you can! For those of you feeding raw diets or are very knowledgeable about pet diets, you already know green tripe is super nutritious for your pet. But it is probably not going to become a regular menu item based on this experience! I'm seriously afraid to leave a house because if I do and cleanse my olfactory senses only to walk back in and have to smell this, I might not be able to finish the process. 😬😵‍💫 I have now raised the funk factor of dehydrating raw beef liver to a reasonable level of tolerance in comparison!! Oy, the things we do because we LOVE our pets!!❣️🐾

I bet most people don't even know there is a woman's veterans day. 🇺🇲 That's TODAY folks. Surprisingly, to me anyway, women veterans still get overlooked. Incredibly, it even happens at the V.A. even nobody else is with me that I get asked if I'm the veteran or if I'm supporting someone who is a veteran. How about both?! To all my sisters in arms, I see you.👀 I appreciate you.🫶 And I highly respect all those who came before us now giving us the opportunity to do so.🇺🇲

It was a hot full weekend, folks, and I just want to thank everyone who came out to support us even in some pretty steamy temperatures. 🔥🌞♨️ We love seeing all of our return customers and fun new ones in Tarpon Springs for 1st Friday, at Bexley Market on the Lawn where it was blazing hot and Harvest Market at the Grove for tolerating the heat there too. Tis the season for Backyerd BBQ's (Who am I kidding? This is Florida, it's always barbecue, season LOL) and were glad so many of you spoiled your pups with their very own fun and healthy BBQ packs! Keep your eyes out for us on your socials to find out and follow us to our next events for more of your pup's favorite treats❣️🐾

We owe so much to our 4-legged heroes too on this Memorial Day! The Army K-9 Corps was formally set up and recognized in 1942 but dogs have been partnering in military and war efforts since about 479 BC. They're better than us!🇺🇲🐕🐾🦮🐾🐕‍🦺🇺🇲

Not all parts of the business are as fun as boopin' the snoots that come by for treats. 🐾 But they're still important like attending continued education this morning with the Ybor City Chamber of Commerce hosted by JC Newman to keep business operations running smoothly! ✨️
