Percuro Pet Food launched Snappies, a new kind of insect protein dog treats in the form of disc-shaped biscuits that are supportive for training and rewarding pets. As their name suggests, the biscuits are intentionally designed so that they're easy to break apart for portion control, which gives pet parents the option to decide how much of the insect-infused treat their dog will receive.
The hypoallergenic formula is powered by planet-friendly ingredients, including 26% insect protein, dried potato flakes, naked oats and green peas. The 10-calorie dog biscuits explore the use of alternative protein for pets as a means of reducing greenhouse gas emissions from livestock used for animal nutrition products, including pet meals and treats.
