GivePet introduced its first Freeze-Dried Dog Treats, each of which is made with just a single ingredient and colorfully branded using space-themed imagery referencing freeze-dried astronaut food.
These nutrient-packed, lightweight, and small-batch formulas are designed for adventure-ready pups, and like all other GivePet treats, they're free from artificial colors, flavors and preservatives. While Astromutt is a wild-caught salmon treat, Mars Rover is a chicken breast treat, and Space Cowboy is a beef liver treat.
“We wanted to introduce freeze-dried treat options for the plethora of benefits they provide for both pets and their owners,” said GivePet founder Chris Dennis, “They have high nutritional value, require minimal processing and are a high-reward treat.” Beyond treating pets and their owners, these peoducts help to give back by supporting animal shelters and rescue organizations.
