Dog snacks from Riverwood.

Chewy snacks for dogs

Did you know that (besides being delicious, of course) it is very good for a dog to chew on a chew snack? This is because chewing contributes to cleaning a dog's bit and gums. In addition, chewing provides a calming effect in dogs. This is because during chewing, endorphins are produced in a dog's brain. Endorphins are also called the happiness hormone and provide a sense of calm and reduce anxiety and aggression. Finally, you reduce the chances of your dog reacting to his need to chew on your furniture if you regularly provide him with a tasty chew snack. So we see only benefits of letting your dog chew a chew snack regularly, do you?

Reward treats for dogs

For anyone looking for healthy reward treats for their dog; look no further! Because at Riverwood, you will find everything you are looking for. In our assortment of treats you will find both crunchy dog cookies and semi-moist snacks as well as soft meat snacks for dogs. The treats are not only tasty but also very healthy! This is because the dog snacks are grain-free and 100% natural. This means that the treats are free of fragrances, colors, flavors and other preservatives. Furthermore, we have taken into account dogs with allergies; in fact, hypoallergenic dog treats are also available. All reward snacks are suitable for dogs of all breeds.

Hypoallergenic dog treats

Does your dog have a food allergy or intolerance? Then you have to be very careful with which snacks you give the dog. After all, the dog can certainly also have a reaction to ingredients processed in dog snacks. For these dogs, hypoallergenic dog snacks are the solution. Hypoallergenic dog snacks are free of the most common allergens in dogs. Hypoallergenic dog snacks can be formulated with a single protein source, unique protein sources (these are protein sources that are not or rarely used in dog food or dog snacks and therefore there is little chance that the dog is allergic to this protein source) or with hydrolyzed protein sources (this means that the protein is cut into small pieces, so to speak, so that the dog's body can no longer "recognize" the protein and cannot react to it).

At Riverwood, we use hypoallergenic dog snacks based on one protein source (the dried chews and fish snacks). In addition, our range of reward snacks also includes hypoallergenic varieties that contain unique protein sources. Thus, even the most sensitive dogs can enjoy a delicious snack.

Puppy treats

A puppy has a lot to learn, and research has shown that rewarding good behavior is the best way to teach a dog. Dog treats are indispensable for this purpose! But which dog treats are suitable for puppies?

You want to give your little four-legged friend a good start. Giving a puppy healthy food is very important for that, but also don't forget to look at the quality of puppy treats. Many dog snacks contain a lot of fillers (such as grains) or contain sugars. Puppies don't need this at all! Healthy puppy treats contain lots of meat (this ensures good digestibility and, not unimportantly, meat smells great to puppies, making them try even harder for you!), are grain-free or low in grains, and are free of sugars, fragrances, colors, flavors or other preservatives. In addition, it is best to give your puppy soft puppy candy. When you give a dog treat that is too hard, your puppy will have to chew on it for a long time and then, of course, training doesn't progress....

Riverwood's reward snacks are suitable for puppies as young as 10 weeks. Riverwood's natural meat trainers are also an ideal size for puppies and are great to use as a healthy reward for your little four-legged friend.
