Dog treats
June 07, 2020
My yellow Lab loves the beef heart dog treats. As she is now an elderly dog her appetite is not what it used to be and anyone who know about Labs knows that Labs love to eat probably more than they should. My dog readily eats the treats and begs for more and because they are freeze-dried they are easy to pack in my handbag or keep in the car.
