For those who know Pia Pia, knows she is very
particular about her what she eats whether it is her food or her treats
especially now that she can only digest certain foods. We had to change all of her food as well as
her treats to all natural so they are easily digestible for her. Luckily for us, Plato Pet Treats is one of
her favorite treats that we can keep consistent with her new diet.
Plato Pet Treats only manufactures and makes treats,
no dog food or can food just pet treats.
The company is not out to conquer the pet food world but to supply
nutritional treats to our dogs, which is important to us and especially our dogs.
Their treats are made of turkey, duck
and salmon with cranberry, pumpkin, sweet potato or vegetables. However, what makes these treats better is
the percentage of the turkey, duck and salmon – 90% - YES, 90%. What is not in these treats is corn, wheat,
soy, grain fractions, grain, GMO, artificial preservatives, or artificial flavors. If you don’t believe the 90% open a bag of
the treats, especially the salmon, you will be able to smell the difference in
Plato Pet Treats to other pet treats on the market. Each of the pet treats serve a purpose, for
instance, turkey and cranberry, pumpkin or sweet potato helps with maintaining
a healthy digestion. The natural
chicken, duck or salmon with vegetables have probiotics which also maintains
good digestion. The natural duck has
iron to assist with maintaining healthy red blood cells. The salmon with Omega 3 & 6, Antioxidants
E & C assists with allergies, skin problems, immune disorders,
cardiovascular disease and more.
Plato Pet Treats are also the manufacturers of
Thinkers, which I can personally vouch for.
As my pug was being trained as a service dog we wanted a special treat
to reward her when she completed a task, we chose Thinkers, she remembers about
50 different tasks to perform in her service dog duties (by law a service dog
only needs to know 10 tasks to pass).
Thinkers contain DHA (Docosahexaenoic
Acid) which is essential for the development of the brain and the nervous
system. DHA is also a major building
block for their vision. DHA primarily
comes from the milk of the mother; however, it is still needed well after the dog
has been weaned.
Plato Pet Treats also supplies
organic treats. Their organic chicken
has 90% organic chicken within the treats.
There are no by-products or meal products just certified organic chicken. Now to be considered organic it starts from
the source which in this case is chicken.
The chicken grown for these treats need to be feed a specific diet to be
considered organic, no growth hormones, no antibiotics just 100% organic
feed. Even the fields need to be cleared
for over a year of all pesticides and non-organic material and inspected to be
cleared by the United States Department of Agriculture and the National Organic
Standards Board to be considered an organic farm for fruit, vegetables and
livestock. Plato Pet Treats are
inspected yearly by the USDA and Oregon Tilth, which is a company that
certifies farms for being organic. They
have stringent guidelines and rules for Plato or any farm to be considered
organic. Speaking with Aaron Merrell,
co-founder, co-owner and Operational Manager is proud of what his company has
been able to obtain since being founded in 2006. As he was telling me the different stages and
inspections his company goes through to be considered organic I can tell he was
happy and seen it as a compliment and not a pain to have to go through all
that. He is a pet owner himself which
drove him to create Plato Pet Treats to have a healthy pet treat which is not
only tastes good but also is healthy for his pets.
Plato Pet Treats also manufactures
salmon oil which we all know have several health benefits just to name a few:
preventing cancer, to assist with our dog’s coat, skin, assist with mobility
issues such as arthritis, kidney functions, heart issues, skin allergies and
more. The oil is from Alaskan salmon and can be added to your dog’s current
food. In January of 2015, Plato came out
with Small Bites, which are still nutritious and healthy they are just smaller
for our dogs and for training purposes.
These specific treats have 75% chicken, duck or salmon but still mo
artificial preservatives, flavors or GMOs.
They received my pug’s approval.
Another positive speaking of Plato
Pet Treats is Plato Wags Back. When you
purchase a bag of Plato Pet Treats a portion of that purchase goes to Plato
Wags Back. Plato Wags Back provides
financial support to organizations for canine welfare, assists with lessen
useless euthanasia, assists organizations to help pair wounded veterans with a
canine companion at no cost to the veteran, and provides other assistance to
charitable organizations for canine welfare.
Plato Pet Treats are available
