What Treats Are Sold at Dog Bakeries?

Many dog owners enjoy treating their canine companions to a special snack from dog bakeries. These businesses have sprouted up in both big and small cities as well as online to help pet owners treat their pets to something special. Dog bakeries cook up a variety of cookies, cakes, biscuits, and other snacks that may not make your mouth water, but your dog's will.

  1. Cookies and Biscuits

    • Special occasion cakes are sold at dog bakeries.

      Most dog bakeries bake their own special cookies and biscuits using various ingredients. Dog bakeries offer dozens of flavored cookies such as apple cinnamon, chicken, bacon and eggs, peanut butter and beef. Cookies and biscuits come in different sizes and shapes to accommodate all dogs.

    Specialty Cakes

    • Birthdays, obedience-school graduations and even females expecting a litter are reasons to order a special cake or cupcakes from your local dog bakery. These gourmet treats also come in many flavors and are made with ingredients your dog will love. Even the frosting on these creations is made of tasty honey, peanut butter, or carob chips. Your dog may not notice the detail and time that goes into creating specialty cakes, but you will. Bone and kitty-shaped cakes are popular items with pet owners.

    Dog Foods

    • Some bakeries make and sell their own dog food.

      Some canine bakeries make and sell their own dog foods. Foods are usually made with whole-grain flour or quinoa flour as a base and mixed with chicken, fish, beef, and vegetables. Dog bakeries may have their store-made dog food packed for customers or they may sell it by the pound in large self-serve bins. There are also dog bakeries that sell top-shelf dog foods that are hard to find at supermarkets and pet stores. Some bakeries special order dog foods for customers that cannot find what they want for their dog elsewhere.

    Pre-Packaged Foods and Snacks

    • Some dog treats are sold in self serve bins.

      Dog bakeries carry prepackaged dog snacks and treats that were not made on the premises. Rawhide bones, training snacks and chew bones are a few of the items you may see displayed at the bakery. These may also be sold in self-serve bins along with pig ears and hooves -- a favorite of many dogs.
