Cici loves her treats/cookies. And the Lincoln Bark Butterpup doggie snacks people asked her to do a taste test of their Chia treats. She thought they were yummy (considering that she prefers treats with meat in them, she loves to scarf these up)…
And I liked the idea of giving her treats with wholesome and not your usual ingredients.
I’d heard about the goodness of eating chia seeds for humans. And Cici is ahead of me now eating them. Chia has been used for centuries as an all-natural dietary supplement. Harvested from the Salvia Hispanica plant, chia seeds were used by the Aztecs to treat a variety of ailments. Chia is high in omega 3 fatty acids and has natural antibiotic properties. The chia seed is an excellent source of fiber, packed with antioxidants, full of protein, loaded with vitamins and minerals, and the richest known plant source of omega-3. Nutty-tasting whole-grain chia seeds are loaded with omega-3 fatty acids, and they have among the highest antioxidant activity of any whole food – even more than fresh blueberries. And they do good stuff for the body, like keeping blood pressure and blood sugar under control.
These treats are peanut butter based, which Cici also loves. And they are a bit hard and crunchy. She likes to munch on them ! They come in different flavors: Chicken liver, Salmon, Oatmeal and Pumpkin. Cici tasted the Oatmeal ones.

The Butterpup story
The story of Sweet Little Butterpup™ snacks began when our two-year-old pup Sophie was diagnosed with Addison’s disease. To boost her food intake, we tried every dog treat available. Nothing worked. Determined to help Sophie, we did extensive research on canine nutrition. Then we started baking our own treats. Healthy and delicious, they were made with 100% natural, human grade ingredients like yummy peanut butter, sweet pumpkin and crunchy oatmeal. To our joy, Sophie couldn’t get enough! Nor could all the dogs in the neighborhood.
Today, Sweet Little Butterpup™ treats contain only pure, honest ingredients. Because we care, our snacks are made by hand and baked in small batches for freshness. Order these irresistible treats today…then send us a photo showing how high your pup jumps.
These products contain no wheat, soy, corn, preservatives, additives, artificial colors or flavors. And are backed by 100% money-back guarantee.
