Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What is the only ingredient in these freeze-dried cheese treats?

Ans: It’s just cheddar cheese made from pasteurized milk, cheese cultures, salt, and enzymes, with a little powdered cellulose to keep it from clumping. No grains, no gluten, no artificial additives, and no unnecessary fillers.

Q2: Are these treats suitable for both dogs and cats?

Ans: Yes, they work for both. The pieces are easy to break apart for pets of different sizes, and the single-ingredient recipe makes them a low-fuss option for households with both a dog and a cat.

Q3: How many treats should I give my pet each day?

Ans: Cats and small dogs do well with 2-4 pieces a day. Medium dogs can have 4-6, and large dogs up to 6-8. They're a treat, not a meal, so sticking to these amounts keeps things balanced.

Q4: Are these treats safe for pets with food sensitivities?

Ans: For most pets with sensitivities, yes, the single-ingredient, grain-free formula keeps things simple and clean. That said, if your pet has a known dairy or lactose issue, it's worth a quick check with your vet first.

Q5: How should these freeze-dried treats be stored after opening?

Ans: Seal the bag after each use and keep it somewhere cool and dry, out of sunlight. They're best used within 30 days of opening, after that, the texture and freshness can start to decline.
