“Our tag line, if you can call it that, is 'the bakery for healthy and happy dogs,'” says Big Dog Little Dog Bakery owner Christine. The line was inspired by Christine's cherished dog Maddie, whom Christine wanted “to live forever… she lived to be almost 19, which is amazing.”
If you’re a dog or cat lover, then of course you want your pet to live a long and healthy life. At Big Dog Little Dog Bakery you’ll find critical information about nutrition, including advice on alternative approaches, and some of the best quality pet foods out there—all of which can help to ensure the longevity of your pet.
Their signature product is their homemade Gourmet Doggie Dinners, originally created for Maddie, who had stomach problems. “After researching her issues, I created a truly healthy, home-cooked meal for dogs,” explains Christine. And for dessert, the bakery creates healthy cookies, treats and even cakes specifically for dogs.
