I'm a smart cookie.

Hello everyone I need to tell you about one of the most pawsome treats ever. It's totally custom or you can use one of their premade blends. It even looks like growlnola. 

These treats are oh so yummy and very good for you. Best of all they are made in America.

While they do have premade blends and that's what I tried you can do totally custom treats.

Pick a protein- 

Salmon. Chicken,or Beef

Pick a carb- 

Oats, Barley, Brown Rice, or Quinoa 

Pick a fruit and veggie-

Carrot Cranberry or Green bean Blueberry



All of these are really good for you. In fact I will tell you a bit about each great ingredient. 



PROTEIN 

Chicken- This is a lean very easy to digest protein that tastes so good. I love the fact that it helps support the immune system. What a great way to stay healthy.

Beef- This tastes so good and helps your body tissue repair and it builds muscles. It's pretty yummy too. While not as lean as fish or chicken it is still very good for you.

Salmon- This is my favorite meat of all. It tastes very good and is high in the good fats. Omega 3 and 6. It helps your immune system and gives a brain boost. A very smart treat for a very smart dog.




CARB

Oats- This is very high in fiber and helps reduce the chance of an allergic reaction. It tastes pretty good too.

Barley- This is a low fat complex carb that helps reduce inflammation.  I love the flavor. Barley is very good for you.

Quinoa- This is a very nutrition dense carb that tastes amazing. And for all you doggies on a gluten free diet this is the carb for you. 

Brown rice- This is very easy to digest and also a bit nutty. This carb is also gluten free. 


Fruits and Veggies. 

Green Beans and Blueberries - These are very high in antioxidants and that is very good for you. 
They are also high in the very important vitamins of A and C. 

Carrot and Cranberry- This is good for your urinary tract and full of beta carotene. They taste great and are packed with so many good for you nutrients. 







PREMADE BLENDS


Prima Dogena- This blend would have to be my favorite. Salmon, Barley, Cranberry and Carrot. It is very tasty and perfect for all you divas out there. 



Sports Dog- This blend is very tasty. Beef, Quinoa, Carrot and Cranberry. This treat is action packed for dogs always on the go. 




The Survivor- This treat is nothing like that silly show Survivor. A yummy blend of Chicken Oats Green beans and Blueberries. I love the taste and the low fat content makes me feel less guilty wanting to gobble them up. 


Brewery Blends 


They also have great treats that use spent grain from local breweries. 



Copper Kettle- Located in Denver they teamed up with Smart Cookie to bring great handmade treats with spent grain salmon green beans and blueberries.

Dry Dock- They teamed up with Smart cookie to bring you a treat featuring salmon carrots and cranberries.



Though the name "spent"  may sound misleading, brewers spent grain (known as "BSG") is 

highly nutritious containing high levels of protein and fiber.




JERKY

They even have some really yummy jerky made from rabbit. I love the flavor and would do anything for some of that. They are lower in cholesterol fat and calories than meat like chicken or beef. They are perfect for dogs with allergies as rabbit is hypo-allergenic. 




WORDS TO KNOW


Protein- builds up your muscles, organs and glands. 

Hypo-allergenic- This mean this is less likely to cause an allergic reaction

Carb-give energy to all the cells in your body

Cholesterol- This is another word for the fat that is found in your blood. 

Antioxidants- Super-heroes that help battle free radicals in your body

Free Radicals- These are bad guys that can make you sick.




PRICE

The price of the treats is very fair. $10 for 9 oz of non jerky treat,
$15 for 3 oz of Jerky.














This pretty dog is Sam. She is the CTO (thats Cheif Tasting Officer) but I think she is the boss.
She has been tasting and approving the treats since she was 8 weeks old. A beautiful 2 year old Golden Retriever.
