Product Review and Discount: Three Dogs Bakery


I'm happy to introduce Three Dog Bakery. In 1989, three dogs, two guys and one 59 cent biscuit cutter joined forces to create Three Dog Bakery - the world's original bakery for dogs. Thanks to dog lovers everywhere, they have grown from a bare-bones tabletop beginning to one of the nation's leading producers of the best all-natural foods and treats for dogs. 


Here are the products that are in this review: Pooch Smooched, Pup-permint Mocha, and Gingerbread Flavor Biscuit Mix. 


Carob Pooch Smooches 
All Natural Dog Treats 9oz.

Cost: $6.95
Ingredients:
Wheat flour, honey, canola oil, carob powder, molasses, baking soda, dried egg product, vanilla powder, citric acid (preservative), mixed tocopherols (preservative). 
Description:
When opening the package I noticed a sweet aroma emerging. They use 100% all-natural, dog-friendly carob and bake it slowly in the oven to bring out that sweet aroma. Theses tasty treats are about the size of a fifty cent piece and are in a star shape. The bag is 9 oz and wonderful treat to have on hand if you have one dog or several K9s. 


Cost: $8.99
Ingredients:
Wheat flour, honey, canola oil, carob powder, dried whole egg, dried cane molasses, chocolate flavor, vanilla powder, baking soda, carmine powder (color), baking powder, spearmint flavor, citric acid (preservative), mixed tocopherols (preservative)
Description:
Great thought was put into this container. It comes in shape of a cafe drink including a protective sleeve. Each 9oz container includes pup-ular carob (dog friendly chocolate) cookies and minty-fresh marshmallow soft baked cookies. Just like the Smooches, this treat also hand a wonderful aroma to them. With two different size cookies it is great for both small and large dogs.  

Gingerbread Biscuit Mix 16oz

Cost: $8.99
Ingredients:
Wheat flour, honey, canola oil, carob powder, dried whole egg, dried cane molasses, chocolate flavor, vanilla powder, baking soda, carmine powder (color), baking powder, spearmint flavor, citric acid (preservative), mixed tocopherols (preservative)
Description:
This biscuit mix would make a great project for both adults and kids. This is an easy project, all you need to do is add water mix, roll, cut, and bake for 40 minuts and you have fresh dog treats that will make your house smell wonderful! The Gingerbread biscuit mix comes with a bone shape cookie cutter.The box says it makes approximately 40 bone shaped treats, but my mom was able to make 80. (I think she rolled them too thin.) My mom also said she added an extra ingredient, "Love." 



It is finally time for the taste test!
