They're like the superhero of dog treats! Their versatility will have both humans and pups in-love! Sprinkle them on food, mix them with water to create an Icy Pup, spread them on a lick mat, create homemade doggy cookies - the list goes on... your pup will think you’re a culinary genius! They're full of nutrients and flavor to support your doggo's health and make treat or meal exciting.
We're extremely proud to say that all of our fruit and veg powders are freeze dried in Australia, from Australian produce in a HACCP certified facility. Our formulas are blended in Western Australia where we adhere to safe and strict hygiene standards.
When creating Powder Pups we had a goal - simplify the enrichment process for dog owners without sacrificing nutrition for our furry bffs.
Lets talk about why our freeze-dried fruit and veg powder blends are the unsung hero of healthy dog treats and enrichment:
- Packed with nutrients:
Freeze drying is king when it comes to nutrient retention. This is because the freeze drying process preserves food without using heat, allowing the highest levels of nutrient retention (97%) compared to other air-drying methods (60% -75%). It locks in all the good stuff—vitamins, minerals, and natural flavors—so your pup gets basically the same benefits as fresh ingredients, minus the hassle, woof to that!
- No chopping, no mess, no stress:
Who has time to peel, dice, and puree when your pup’s giving you the “I’m starving” look? Our powder is ready to sprinkle, mix, or blend in seconds—no cleanup required.
- Freshness that lasts furr-ever (well, almost):
Fresh produce wilts faster than your pup’s zoomies! Freeze-dried powder, on the other hand, stays good for months!
- Paw-sitively versatile:
Create Icy Pups, spread it on a lick mat, or sprinkle it on food, It’s like having a magic wand for dog treats—so many ways to use them!
Convenience for you, top-notch nutritional treats for your furry bestie.
Nope! Just down to earth goodness from real Aussie fruit & veg 😍
We keep things natural and delicious, ensuring that your furkid enjoys a treat that’s as close to nature as possible. Because we believe that what’s left out is just as important as what goes in. Our promise to you is 0% preservatives or additives in all of our food products.
We use real fruit & veg, some of which are more prone to clumping than others in powder form. As this is purely a cosmetic issue, we choose not to ‘fix’ it by adding any preservatives or additives and therefore there will be some clumps in Powder Pups (which we feel is better than anything artificial!). Don’t stress though, these clumps will break up naturally as the powders reabsorb water.
To dissolve bigger clumps we recommend letting your mixture sit for 30 seconds prior to mixing or just break them up with a spoon while mixing.
Absolutely! They’re designed for daily use to give your pup a little extra health boost during enrichment activities or add excitement to their meals.
As when introducing any new food to your furkid’s diet, we recommend starting slow to see how they handle it.
Powder Pups are plant based and made from Australian Fruit and Veggies. You can find out more about our flavours and ingredients on their respective product pages.
A single serve is 4g and there are 20 serves per pouch (that’s just $1.39 per serve!).
You bet! Our powders are formulated by a Canine Nutrionist to suit all ages, from bouncy pups (12+ weeks) to wise seniors.
Functional benefits + great taste = a win-win for every pup!
