These unconventional dog chew treats from Yeti Dog Chew are shaped and branded as "biscotti" treats for pets.

Although the classic Italian almond biscuit cookies that humans often eat are made with ingredients that are commonly found in baked goods, these [biscotti sticks for dogs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dognip) are made with just three simple ingredients—yak's milk, cow's milk and lime juice.

Many pet owners who are looking to provide the best possible care and nutrition for their four-legged furry friends are seeking out treats that are inspired by human foods. Outside of this example from Yeti Dog Chew, this pattern can also be seen with dog treats that resemble everything from ice cream and cakes to popcorn and potato chips.
