Changes In The Pet Products Industry (cont)
Since your dog has to eat slowly the Treatstik may help controlling your dog's weight. They are made from a heavy nylon material and can stand up to strong chewers. It has a large screw cap opening for easy filling and is dishwasher safe. It is made in America by a small family-owned company in Vermont
It comes in two sizes, small which is 6" long and is best for dogs 10 - 40 lbs. The small holds about a cup of food and the large which is 9" long and is best for dogs over 40 lbs. The large holds about a cup and half of dog food.
I have two dogs, Lucy a Great Dane and Kona a Chocolate Lab. They both love their Treatstiks and play with them whenever I give it to them. Kona likes her Treatstik a little more than Lucy, but Kona has a tremendous food drive like most labs. I am pretty sure I could feed her a whole bag of dog food and she would watch me very closely as I ate my dinner. She would weigh more than I do if I did not watch the food that she eats.
As dogs become more family members and less viewed as pets we will continue to see changes in the pet industry to address these issues.
