Fruitables Dog Treats Review and Giveaway

I know for most of us (myself included) that our dogs are our family. They're considered our children. Just like our children, we want to make sure that they're healthy and taken care of. That includes what they eat. I came across the Fruitables® dog treat line and was amazed! These 100% natural treats are deliciously healthy!


Fruitables® dog treats are made by VetScience and are absolutely amazing. I had concerns over how much my dogs were eating. Even though they are smaller dogs, they eat a lot. Aside from it being a financial issue, I was especially concerned about their health and overeating. I could just take their bowls away in between meals, but my youngest starts chewing up things and then it becomes a discipline issue. These treats worked well as in between meal snacks. I also used the Pumpkin & Cinnamon filler in their food. I'm still training my 6 month old and my 3 year old always has room to brush up so I used these treats to 1, keep them from eating between meals, and 2 to use as rewards to obeying commands. I have never had my dogs listen to me better. They love them! I guess they felt like they were truly getting a treat. Of course they should because these babies are a treat! I loved how healthy these Fruitables® treats are!
