Treat Review: Artisan Dog Treats by Olive's Larder

For a while now, I've been searching for some natural dog treats that aren't full of additives, artificial colours and flavours for my 11 year old Spaniel Louie. Since joining the online dog community, we've found a huge number of companies that produce and sell natural dog treats made with our canine companion's health in mind. Olive's Larder is one of them!

Mmm Duck & Sweet Potato - delicious!

Olive's Larder is an independent family run business based in Southampton that supplies healthy, natural and unprocessed dog biscuits, as well as doggy accessories and natural eco toys. Olive's Larder try to use as many organic ingredients as possible in order to leave out all those nasty additives and preservatives found in many other dog treats.

Recently, the lovely team at Olive's Larder kindly sent some wheat and gluten free, Duck & Sweet Potato flavoured artisan dog treats for Louie to taste test! What a horrible job Louie has right?! There's quite a variety of other flavours in this range, including: Chicken & Thyme, Carrot, Courgette & Mint, Beef & Rosemary and Turkey & Apple - all of which sound very yummy!

Once opened, these treats only last around a week so they need to be gobbled up quickly! While this may be considered a downside to these treats, it actually shows just how fresh the ingredients are which we think is great - no hidden nasties here!

Louie can be fussy with treats, it's not unusual for him to turn his nose up at treats and biscuits. On this occasion, he couldn't get enough of his Duck & Sweet Potato treats! He could've eaten the whole packet if I'd let him! The treats can be easily broken and are fairly soft so would be suitable for any size dog. Louie's best friend Tilly May the Yorkshire Terrier had a try and even with a large amount of teeth removed happily munched them up!

"We don't use anything artificial in our dog treats just simply 100% natural goodness..." - Olive's Larder

Overall, we love Olive's Larder and their artisan dog treats! They're nicely packaged, fresh, natural and reasonably priced - £2.99 for a 75g box or £3.99 for a 150g pouch. While these aren't the cheapest of treats, these biscuits are made from 100% natural ingredients so they're worth every penny!

Delivery is £3.50 (UK mainland only) or free on purchases over £30. If you're around the Southampton area, you can also collect your purchases from Teacups & Tutus or Botley Mills for free - so the money you're saving on postage you can use to buy extra treats!
