Publisher's summary

Inspired by that British (BBC) television program called The Great British Bake Off and love, more pet owners are making homemade treats for their furry companions. Fueled by the rapid spread of information on the internet, there is, what seems like, an unending array of pet recipes. It’s never been easier to treat Fido and King homemade artisan dog treats.

And for those dog owners who haven’t yet jumped into baking for their pets but are more than willing to buy gourmet treats, some of the best options can be found at places often called pet bakeries. Whether the bakery is online or in a physical retail establishment across town, pet owners, especially those who own dogs, are willing to spend a reasonable amount of money so that their pet can enjoy a delicious treat.

More pet owners are developing the tendency to treat their four-legged friends with the same attention and appreciation as their children, for they have chosen to not have any of their own or are waiting for the right circumstances to have or adopt some.

Another reason for the rise in homemade treats is a growing realization that commercially bought treats contain dubiously healthy - if not shockingly dangerous - ingredients. For those owners who want to ensure their pets have nothing but food and treat with the healthiest ingredients, it’s really not a long jump to creating homemade treats. After all, you can easily see this as a natural extension of food-buying if you’re already dedicated to organic and natural ingredients in your own diet and that of your family.

I started making various dog treats at home out of necessity and to make sure our dog always had something healthy to eat. But my hobby quickly grew into a passion, and soon, I saw a demand for dog treats from extended family, friends, and neighbors.

The next step came almost naturally, after my husband suggested that I look into opening my own pet bakery. I started looking and researching the idea, and soon enough, the concept turned into reality, and I never looked back.

But this book is not about my success story...but yours. In this book, I show you a step-by-step process that anyone can follow and open up their own pet bakery even from home.

In this guide, I discuss:

• Reasons why your pets need fresh treats
• Ways to tell if your dog has food allergy
• Food nutrition and food safety
• Type of nutrition your dog needs
• Vitamins your pets need
• Organic versus commercial food
• FDA, AAFC, OTCO, and USDA regulations
• Dangerous additives to avoid
• Equipment and supplies you will need to get started
• Recipes your dogs will love
• Twelve traits of a successful business owner
• The bridge from hobby to business
• Step-by-step transition to starting your own business
• Ways to market your new business
• Business plan to success
• Six must do’s for your new business
• Steps to pick the right legal structure
• State and local regulations
• And so much more!

A cool book

A nice book that is rather interesting and fun. I highly recommend this book as a great source of all things pet bakery.

extremely informative for all startup businesses

started off a little slow but then when you get to the final chapters it can help with all forms of startup businesses Great information. The only problem is it refers to pictures and it does not have PDFs

don't waste your money

First off, the narration sounds like a someone recorded a bunch of words individually and then just plugged them in. it was really distracting. Secondly, there's an entire chapter- the subject I most wanted to hear about, that was intentionally left out. The remainder of the book is filled with unhelpful fluff and 5% useful information that's super easy to find on Google. Save your money, use google or common sense.
