Treat Of The Week – Old Mother Hubbard Gourmet Goodies
It is not easy to
stand out in the pet treat market. But in the case of Old Mother Hubbard BakingCompany, it has always taken a back seat while its more well-known sister brand
such as Wellness. Honestly, even Cory and Cole haven’t had much experience for
Old Mother Hubbard Baking Company, save for Cory their Soft & Chewy Mother’s Solutions Skin & Coat range about two years ago.
But all that is set
to change with the release of Gourmet Goodies. Their latest expansion which is
described as having “plenty of artisanal textures and tastes to choose from…”
Old Mother Hubbard
Baking Company’s Gourmet Goodies stock three different “textured” treats which
promises something different for every dog out there:
Wheat-free, the main
ingredients are cheese and meat. Pet owners can decide between Cheddar, Chicken
& Rosemary or Parmesan, Bacon & Tomato.
These slow-baked
cookies come in three options: Applesauce & Oatmeal, Carrots & Pumpkin
and Peanut Butter & Carob.
If your furkid is big
on fruits such as blueberries and applies, they will love this duo-layered
square-shaped treats that are crunchy on the outside and soft inside: Honey,
Apple & Bacon and Honey, Oatmeal & Blueberries.
That is quite a huge
release. But how did Cory and Cole like Old Mother Hubbard Baking Company’s
latest offerings?

Review
Cory always had a
good impression on Old Mother Hubbard Baking Company’s treats. But as this was
Cole’s first time, you never know how this fussy pot will react to them.
While Cory the vacuum
cleaner took every treat readily, Cole seem to prefer the Soft Bakes and Fruit’In.
However, when he realised I was not budging when offering him, he took in the
Crispers treat, realising he liked the taste, and started begging for more…
That silly bugger.
As a pet owner, I
loved how these treats were of a decent size. Call it a personal preference,
but not only do Cory and Cole seem to enjoy chewing longer, it allows me to
break them into half (still bigger than most mini treats) and share the portions
between the two. Attractive packaging aside, the short ingredient list is simple to read, allowing me to check immediately which pack might not be suitable for Cory.
Since I had quite a
few packs, I shared them with some of the Zhongshan Park Dog Group’s furkids.
Though most took in these delicious-smelling treats readily, there were some
princesses who turned their noses in the other direction. Yes, looking at you
Dark MiniMoon!
In a nutshell, the
pickiest of eaters will probably have some reservations so pet owners best know
what their furkids love (taste and texture) before deciding. After all, if they
don’t like it hard, they will go for the Soft Bakes, right?
