Whether we are
rewarding good behavior or teaching
our dog new tricks, treats are a
staple in every pet owner’s household.
But what happens if your dog is
allergic to every treat on the market,
leaving you with no edible reward
options?
Annette
thought she was out of luck after her
dog Lambchop developed a myriad of
medical issues, including kidney
disease and food allergies, and was
placed on strict dietary guidelines.
With nothing to reward him but a “good
boy” and a pat on the head, she knew
she had to do more. Spending over 14
years working in physical therapy with
humans, Annette knew all about
adapting to new and specialized needs
and that where there is a will, there
is certainly always a way. She took to
the kitchen, testing hundreds of
recipe combinations with Lambchop
serving as the “official picky
taste-tester”.
Finally,
Annette developed a treat that not
only met all his dietary needs but was
healthy, nutritious and delicious. All
of Lambchop’s doggie friends agreed
and those with food allergies really
did a happy dance along with their
humans who were happy there was no
mess to clean up because their pups
not only loved the treats but their
digestive systems did too!
Biscuits
by Lambchop™ dog treats are free of
gluten, soy, corn, rice, dairy, eggs,
nuts, animal proteins and
preservatives and are low in fat,
sodium and phosphorus to accommodate
the needs of dogs who have these
restrictions in their diet, such as
those with some types of kidney, liver
and pancreas problems.
With
all natural ingredients, a unique
blend of bean flours, fresh fruits and
local greenmarket ingredients, dogs
love them so much they'll beg you to
keep your own paws off! Just don't
tell them they’re "health food"!
About Lambchop
After a
rough start, Lambchop was rescued at 6
months old. A New York City boy
with his own motorcycle (with a
sidecar), he was a tough boy who went on
to make quite a stir everywhere he rode!
He was even filmed for a documentary, The Dogs of
Manhattan, riding his
motorcycle through Times Square at
sunset. And since he knew Keith
Richards, the music is perfection!
Giving
Back
As you can see, we're all about
special dogs because no dog should
have to go without. We give to
local shelters on a regular basis and
participate in many causes that pull
at our heart strings around the
country. From raising money for
shelters with other pet bloggers for National
Pet Shelter Week, 24 hour
Blogathons, to supporting World
Vets with Paws
for Japan, helping a little boy
get
a seizure alert puppy, Be
The Change Challenge, we are
honored to be able to give back!
We've met so many amazing people
through these events, it is just so
heartwarming to see the love so many
others share for animals (and people)!
