Gourmet treats for dogs, hand-made in Devon

In 1998 we adopted Bob, a one-year old Australian Shepherd, who displayed separation anxiety and chewed the furniture every time we left her alone in the house. Because the chewing generally happened within the first few minutes of us leaving, we needed a distraction for this time and, if she had been good, a reward on our return. Thus, we made our own dog treats using only human-quality ingredients without preservatives and additives; some were gently spiced with cinnamon, others sweetened with honey or fruit. We left the treats in a variety of places for her to find in our absence and this worked very well to take her mind off our departure. In no time, Bob stopped chewing the furniture and settled on finding ways to open the cupboard where we kept her special treats. Since then, all of our dogs, Klassy, Shep, Lupin and Lottie, have enjoyed a growing range of handmade biscuits.
