The Project Hive Pet Company makes honey dog treats that are devoted to supporting a healthy bee population thanks to a partnership with 1% for the Planet and the Bee & Butterfly Habitat Fund. The company is aiming to establish over 1,000 acres of wildflower habitats over the next five years.
The brand's honey dog treats, like the Hive Chew Treats for dogs of all sizes, are designed to be used with the company's own hive-shaped toys for playtime that lasts. The chew treat sticks are made with ingredients like organic honey and ground peanuts, and they are free from artificial colors, flavors, corn, wheat and soy. These easy-to-digest dog treats help to create happy pups, one chew at a time, all the while supporting a vital species of insects.
