Health Benefits of Maks'Patch Veggie Dog Treats
1. GLUTEN FREE
Gluten is a protein that helps bind food together. Gluten free applies specifically to three grains; wheat, barley and rye. Because Maks’Patch Dog Treats are Grain Free we are also Gluten Free.
Intolerance to gluten and grains is rare in dogs. However, if they do suffer, they will find it hard to absorb nutrients in their small intestine, leading to various health issues.
2. LOW IN FAT
Less than 10% fat is considered a low fat diet for a dog. Maks'Patch Dog Treats have no more than 2.5% Fat. Perfect for avoiding weight gain or fat-related conditions like pancreatitis.
3. LIGHT IN PROTEIN
Too much protein can be bad for dogs, leading to kidney disease & weight gain. Dogs are usually getting enough protein in their daily meals, Maks’Patch being light in protein makes them suitable for dogs with ongoing kidney issues and weight gain.
"This is our dog Oscar (he is two), he has a chronic illness that means he cannot metabolise protein. When a friend told me about your treats and doing some research into them. I just could not believe how low the protein levels were and for the first time since he was 10 weeks old we can give him a dog treat that actually resembles a dog treat! He LOVES them"
4. NO ADDED SUGAR
All of our treats have no added sugar. Added sugar is a certain recipe for weight gain, tooth decay and the onset of diabetes, among other health issues and best avoided. For that sweetness that dogs love in our treats you will notice a small % of coconut oil or real peanut butter.
5. HYPO-ALLERGENIC
A Hypoallergenic dog treat is a recipe formulated without common allergens such as wheat, gluten, dairy and soya.
Because Maks’Patch treats are made from natural ingredients there isn’t anything unnatural to irritate your dog.
"Just wanted to say that your treats are my dogs favourite treats, ever, and they are a total godsend for me, as he's allergic to EVERYTHING! Wheat, soya, cows milk, all meat, all fish.......(And that’s before I get into all the environmental allergies, too)"
6. REDUCE PLAQUE
Dental chews and treats should be considered an additional tool when it comes to caring for your pet's oral health.
Not all of our treats help in reducing plaque , but you will notice a range of chews that have ridges and bumps, that when chewed, get into the gum line and help reduce some plaque and tartar build up.
Our Croc bites for example are specially formulated with ingredients like green tea extract & fennel, while also having bumps and ridges to get in-between your dog’s teeth and massage the gum line to increase blood flow, keeping their mouth healthy.

We use Sweet Potato! The reason is that sweet potatoes are not only great for your dogs digestive system because of their high dietary fibre content but they are also low in fat and contain many essential vitamins such as B6, C and A But what does it mean for my dog to be getting these vitamins? Vitamin C is an important Antioxidant. It helps reduce inflammation and cognitive ageing. Vitamin B6 is vital for any dog, this is responsible for Glucose Generation, Red Blood Cell and Nervous System Function, Hormone Regulation, Immune Response, Niacin Synthesis and Gene Activation....Basically this is all very important for any dog! Vitamin A is found not only in Sweet Potato but also in Carrot, it is responsible for good vision, growth, fetal development, immune function and cell function. |
