Three Dog Bakery  by danielle on 28 May 2014 | No Comment Three Dog Bakery takes pet treats to a whole new level. Image credit   The café started when Gracie the albino Great Dane was in bad health. Her owners Dan and Mark couldn’t get her to eat. They bought her the fanciest dog food that money could buy but she wouldn’t touch it and looked at them with doleful blue eyes.   Image credit So Dan and Mark took matters into their own kitchen. Their first batch was far from the impeccable treats their store sells today but Gracie gobbled them up and they knew they were onto something when her fur-sisters Sarah and Dottie did the same.   It wasn’t long before their neighbor’s dogs were fancying their snacks and Dan and Mark began selling to the rest of their city on lunch breaks and weekends. In 1989, Mark and Dan left their jobs to focus entirely on developing their pet bakery and moved to commercial premises.      Image credit There are now over thirty Three Dog Bakery locations that bake treats fresh on-site. Each store has its own exclusive seasonal treats, gourmet dog pastries and one-of-a-kind canine cakes.   Image credit Three Dogs Bakery makes all their treats from scratch using all-natural ingredients, such as blueberries, spinach, carrots, cranberries, chicken, white fish, peanut butter and carob. They aim for their products to be nutritious as well as tasty. They sell not only quirky dog treats but also premium dog food and cat rewards.   Image credit   They were recently named the number one dog bakery in America by Yahoo and one of the top pet treat vendors by Relish.com.   On their blog they share great pet recipes for readers to try at home such as ‘Snickerpoodle Cookies’, ‘Howl-o-ween Tricking Treats’ and ‘Pawshake Cake’.    Feature image credit   Comment(s)0 Join the Conversation Name* * Please enter your name.
