10 Reasons This Vet-Founded Dog Treat Mix Is Flying Off the Shelves
By Luna L.
Summary: When I first heard about this dog treat baking mix, I was skeptical.
But the glowing reviews and heartfelt testimonials caught my attention.
Now that I’ve tried it, I completely understand why dog parents are raving about it.
Here are 10 reasons people (and their dogs) are falling in love:
1. Vet-Founded and Trusted
This brand isn’t just another pet product churned out by marketers—it was created by an actual veterinarian, Dr Paul Ramos (pictured). That alone gave me a sense of trust right away.
Knowing the person behind the product has first-hand experience in animal health made me feel confident I was giving my dog something safe, healthy, and thoughtfully designed. After all, he formulated these treats for his own dog, Cookie (also pictured;).
One dog mum summed it up perfectly: “Knowing this was created by a vet put my mind at ease immediately. I trust it 100% for my pup.”
2. Organic and Simple Ingredients - You Can Stop Feeling Guilty!
I’m a label reader when it comes to what my dog eats, and this baking mix passed my “clean and simple” test with flying colours. It’s made from organic, wholesome ingredients without any weird additives or preservatives. It feels amazing to know I’m making something truly good for my pup.
This is because BarkyBakey insists on using only the finest plant-based, human-grade, organic ingredients in their baking mix, ensuring no preservatives, chemicals, additives, animal byproducts and no yuk.
Another review perfectly echoed my thoughts: “My dog is part of my family, and I want to give him the best. This mix is simple, organic, and everything I could ask for.”
3. Super Easy to Use
Let’s be honest—I’m not exactly the DIY type. I mean, who has the time to research recipes, track down fancy ingredients, store unused leftovers and then clean up the mess?
But this mix makes it ridiculously easy, in minutes even the least crafty dog parent can whip up something amazing. All it takes is one extra kitchen ingredient, and you’re good to go.
There’s no mess, no stress. Just pour and mix with water and (dog-safe) peanut butter, roll, cut and bake!
Check out this happy customer that shared: "I thought baking for my dog would be a mess, but this mix made it so easy!". Yup, that was me too.
4. It's a Bonding Experience
When was the last time you created something by hand for a loved one? 'Homemade' is all about creating and connecting - there's no better way to say I Love You.
But life can get hectic. With smartphones, emails & constant online scrolling, the joy of creating something by hand can easily be forgotten. Baking at home is a great way to unplug and reconnect with those we love, furried company included.
For so many, the time spent creating something wonderful is the crux of it, “It’s become a fun weekend tradition with my dog!”
5. Dogs Are Obsessed with the Taste
"My picky eater LOVES these!" one customer raved.
The treats are a hit with even the fussiest pups because they’re delish on their own or you can add a favourite flavour if they’re finicky (check out other options here).
Which makes them a no-brainer for dog parents who want to give their pup the best experience.
6. Plastic-Free, Compostable Packaging
The compostable, plastic-free packaging was the cherry on top for me. “Finally, a company that gets it! The compostable packaging is a huge plus for me,” as one review put it.
It’s clear the company is serious about sustainability, which is rare in the pet product world. Dr Paul's own first-hand experiences working with sea turtles drove him to go plastic-free with his packaging.

7. Perfect for Special Occasions
Whether it’s a doggy birthday, a holiday treat, or 'just because they're the best dog in the world', these homemade treats help special moments become even more memorable.
"I love making these for my dog on her birthday—it’s a tradition now!"
8. It Makes You Feel Like the Best Dog Parent Ever
You’re doing your best providing for your dog, why not celebrate that?
There’s something heartwarming about making something with love for a loved one. "It’s not just a treat—it’s a way to show my dog how much I care," as someone put it. How true this is.
9. Get the Kids Involved!
One great reason to get this organic baking mix is that it’s an easy way to get kids involved in the kitchen!
Baking dog treats together is an easy, (somewhat) mess-free activity that creates family moments and lets them bond with their pets while learning basic baking skills – and they definitely love rolling out the dough;). Plus, it makes for a perfect rainy-day project!
As one happy mum shared "My daughter absolutely loved making these for our dog! She felt so proud seeing Bella wag her tail for the treats she baked herself. Such a simple and fun way to get kids involved!"
10. You Know Exactly What’s in Your Dog’s Treats – And They’re Always Fresh
With store-bought treats, it’s hard to know exactly what’s inside—even so-called “natural” options can contain preservatives, cheap or questionable ingredients. With BarkyBakey’s homemade baking mix, you’re in control.
✔️ Simple, vet-approved ingredients—no artificial nasties.
✔️ No hidden junk, preservatives, or additives—just real food.
✔️ Always fresh—you bake in small batches, so your dog gets treats made with love, not sitting on a shelf for months.
One customer shared:
"I love that I can finally give my dog treats I trust 100%. No mystery ingredients—just fresh, homemade goodness!"
Because when it comes to your dog, fresh and real is always best.
Why I'll Never Go Back

Minty absolutely loved his Pumpkin biscuits, they're so easy to make and I know exactly what's in them, we can't wait to make the Beetroot and Coconut ones next.

My dog loves these! They're so, so easy to make as well.
I love that they're healthy for her as well and she can't get enough of them. I tend to make a huge batch, put the treats back in the compostable bag (or any bag), then put them in the freezer and use them over about 6 months.
11/10 will buy again!
