So, did anyone get a new puppy for Christmas? I didn’t because I already have three dogs and one of them (Maia) would probably kill me in my sleep if I brought another puppy into her life. She’s an old girl though, so I guess I can’t blame her. For those who did get a new puppy, or those with old girls (or boys, or hey, any other type of dog for that matter), Old Mother Hubbard Soft & Chewy Bits should definitely be on your shopping list. These little morsels make great training treats or just plain old “hey, you’re a great dog, have a bit of peanut buttery goodness!”
We try to feed our dogs the most natural stuff possible to keep them around for as long as we can, and Old Mother Hubbard has been a staple in our dog treat canister for a while now. Their products are made with the best possible natural ingredients by people who have been in the business for over 80 years. The Peanut Butter Bitz actually contains peanut butter as the first ingredient. They’re itty, bitty little bits, as the name implies, but even my ginormous dogs eagerly awaited each little morsel.
We also tried out the Low-Fat Oven Baked Dog Treats, which my dogs found particularly pleasing. Here they are waiting oh-so impatiently for Jacob to throw them a bite:
Here’s Cooper getting ready to snatch one out of mid-air while Tasha waits for her turn:
Tasha finds them lip-smackingly good as you can tell from this picture:
Tasha, Maia, and Cooper loved both types of treats. In fact, I use the treats to bribe them to come in when they’re outside barking at passing leaves, airplanes, and random stray cats. Yes, I’m THAT annoying neighbor with the dogs. When I shake the bag, they all come running, and no one calls the cops! So it’s a win-win situation for all involved. Note, I am just kidding about the cops, so far no one has called yet, I don’t let the dogs bark at night.

Hi Nicole.
So funny, your beige dog above looks exactly like my neighbor’s dog ‘Ren.’
I had to post this because the funniest thing I’ve seen Ren do is chase my paper airplanes. lol
I started making all kinds just to see him react and play with them.
I use this site to make paper airplanes of all types… http://makepaperairplanes.org
It’s good to know because each one flies differently in their own way… so you can see why this is so intriguing to a dog. lol
Good luck with your cool blog Nicole.
Best,
Rob

Hannah: 3 year old boarder colli, terrer mix we believe. Very fun, loving towards girls but timid due to abuse towards males. a drop off at our house and took her in. Learning tricks but gets too excited when praised, so we working on patience to calm her energy down. loves to play tuga war with the play rope. Not a fan of water but is getting use to it.
Tater: 4 is lab and terror mix. found him at 11pm xmas eve in the rain at a walmart parking lot at estimated 8 to 10 weeks old. He is high energy; howeover, has calmed as he ages but is a major daddy’s boy. loves to be rough with daddy but very gentle with me and our toddler. enjoys running with the quad and playing with our horse’s toys. A major water boy.

I have three wonderful dogs that would love those bitz! All of my dogs are mixed breeds from the pound or found on the side of the road. They love going to the dog park!
My dog is a lab mix that I adopted on Halloween from our local rescue. My previous dog had a tumor and had to be put down. I was devistated. My sister had to go to the petstore and get her dog treats just before Halloween and I was with her…and they happened to have their rescue adoption days. I fell in love with Murphy! But..I didnt have money at that time. I was so sad. A few days later on Halloween….there was a knock on the door …figuring it was my first trick or treater….but it was Murphy! My sister and son went and got him for me and had him dressed up in a pumpkin costume! Murphy and I have been so happy. He had been looking for a new forever home for almost 4 months! Felt so bad for him. He is my spoiled rotten best friend now…..
I would love to try these treats for him. He sure is loving his treats!!!!
Not sure if he got treats before…but oh boy….he just goes nuts over them. LOL
Tucker and TInkerbell…both super sweet brown dogs 🙂
