Treat your dog right!

Treat your pup to something special!

Treats are an important part of your interaction with your dog. She looks to you as the source of all things good - why not give her something that's good for her, too! Treats should be special, small and simply delicious!

Finding treats small enough and tasty enough to be relished by even our tiniest canine friends has been one of our objectives at Golly Gear. We've found some of the best and we think your dog will agree!
Of course, the "big guys" will love these treats, too!
All are made in the U.S.

Liver Biscotti

We call these "puppy crack"

Liver Biscotti - we know, it's a terrible name, but it's a phenomenal product! Dogs absolutely adore these all-natural treats, made from human-grade ingredients, and no preservatives. Beef liver is the first ingredient in both the regular, and "anti-allergenic" formulas. The anti-allergenic formula has neither wheat nor eggs. Each 8 oz. bag has hundreds of treats (Liver Biscotti are very light in weight) and dogs adore them. The label says each piece has only 2 calories, so even the tiniest dog can enjoy these wonderful, crunchy treats without worry!

And if your dog prefers chewy to crunchy, just soak Liver Biscotti for about an hour, let them drain and pop them in a resealable plastic bag in the fridge. They'll keep for a couple of days and you have a delicious, low-cal treat for your dog all ready to go!

Mini-Naturals

Zuke's Mini Naturals - These "healthy, moist, miniature treats" are a fantastic find for any owner of a small dog. They're the perfect size for training or treating any size dog: cylinders about 3/8 inch in diameter and about 1/4 inch long. We know, as small dog owners, we're constantly fighting the battle of weight with our dogs - either they're fussy and won't eat, or chow-hounds whose weight we have to monitor. These treats help with both issues - we've never met a dog who wasn't wild about Mini Naturals, particularly the Salmon flavor. Mini Naturals have no artificial colors or flavors, no BHA, added tallow, or by-products. They're small to start with and pinch cleanly to the tiniest size for training sessions.
