If you are plant based, then you’ll probably want your dog to be too! Soopa have brought out a range of plant-based dog treats based around fruit and vegetables which add extra nutrients to your pet’s diet and some delicious flavours too. We were sent a box of new flavours, especially for Christmas, to try out on the office pooches.
In the range this year are Dental Sticks and Healthy Bites (lovely flower shaped treats) in Gingerbread Biscuit and Pumpkin Spiced Latte flavours, and a Christmas Selection Box with Cranberry & Sweet Potato flavoured Superfood Sticks and Healthy Bites. These all sound very nutritious to me and the fact that they are plant based is intriguing! The company Soopa was started by Barbara for her dog Lily after Barbara saw the health problems of the dogs coming into her grooming business. Most of the problems she saw included obesity, diabetes and allergies which were caused or made worse by commercial foods. Barbara wanted to create a food for her dog Lily to enjoy and be healthier than other foods on the market.
All of the Soopa foods include 100% human food grade products. They’re low in calorie too with the Soopa Healthy Bites each containing just 3 calories per treat. The ingredients are not just seasonal either with some of the treats and sticks containing food which benefits too. For example, the Gingerbread Biscuit Dental Sticks contain cranberry and ginger to aid digestion, reduce inflammation and boost urinary tract health. The Pumpkin Spiced Latte Dental Sticks also aid digestion and promote a shiny, healthy coat too. Each of the treats with the same ingredients support your dog in the same way too.
I really like the idea of the Soopa Christmas Selection Box as a treat for your dog or a gift for Christmas Day and the rest of the family to open. The Cranberry & Sweet Potato (with natural flaxseed) sticks and bites are also grain free and actually smell lovely, not like meat at all, and are very Christmassy!
It’s no secret that dogs love vegetables as well as meat so you would be helping their overall diet by adding something other than chicken or beef to their daily meals. The added health benefits of natural, food grade veggie ingredients can only further support their health and give them some variety too, plus dogs will love the low calorie treats without you feeling guilt about giving them!
