The type of pet you own, and whether it is a dog or a cat (or something else), definitely affects the choices you have when it comes to choosing a pet food. Dogs and cats might seem similar to some people, but one of the biggest differences between them is in the food they eat.

Cats are obligate carnivores, meaning meat (or chicken, or fish) needs to be their primary food source. Dogs, on the other hand, are omnivores, and also require plenty of fiber in their diet.

There is some crossover between the food and treats, and some Tickled Pet products can be fed to dogs and cats alike. Nevertheless, we have separate pages for dogs and cats.

Please note as well, that the type of food your pet needs can also depend on the size and age of your pet.

The difference between pet food and treats is similar to the difference between human food and treats. When we think of food for ourselves, we know our diet needs to be complete and balanced. Treats are meant to supplement our regular diet - not replace it.

The same rule applies to pets. The food they eat - meaning their regular meals - needs to be balanced and healthy, providing all the nutrients they need.

Their treats also need to be healthy, and are meant to intermittently supplement and fortify the regular diet. Treats cannot replace regular food, but they most definitely necessary to help maintain overall and dental health, and they are also great for fun, rewards, and training.

There is a definite overlap between treats and chews - treats can be chewy and chews can serve as special treats for your pets. Sometimes, even, “treats” and “chews” are interchangeable.

However, in general, the purpose of a treat is to supplement your pet’s regular diet in a healthy way - for fun, to reinforce and reward good behavior, or for training.

Chews are in order to:

• Keep jaws, teeth, and gums healthy
  
• Reduce plaque and tartar buildup
  
• Relieve boredom
  
• Ease anxiety and stress
  
• Reduce the pain caused by incoming teeth in younger pets
  

A bully stick is a chew made from the pizzle or penis of a bull. The bully sticks we carry are made 100% from high quality USA beef, and use non-chemically treated, non-imported, non-irradiated, USA-sourced ingredients. They promote dental health and encourage healthy chewing habits.

The amount of treats your pet can have on a daily basis depends on what kind of pet it is, how old it is, and what size it is - these all factor into its dietary requirements. You should ask your veterinarian to weigh in on this, with advice tailored to your pet.

The amount you treat your pet also depends on the size of the treat and the ingredients - the amount of protein and fiber content - in the treat itself. You don’t want to overfeed your pet. To that end, smaller treats can usually be given multiple times per day. Larger treats and bully sticks should more likely be limited to one per day.

Animals need clean teeth - just like people. Simply by giving your pet high quality chews helps keep their teeth and gums healthy and strong. That’s what many of our treats and chews are specially designed to do - to promote dental hygiene, encourage healthy chewing, and help clean teeth and gums.

We advise matching chews to your pet’s size, preference, and personality. For example, if your pet is an aggressive chewer, it may need a product that is firmer and tougher to chew.

That said, keep in mind that in addition to chews, your pet’s teeth and gums could probably use a regular brushing, as well as a trip to the vet for a proper checkup and cleaning.

Yes! That’s why we founded Tickled Pet - to make sure your pet would be happy and healthy!

We use premium, all-natural ingredients of the highest quality, use non-chemically treated, non-imported, non-irradiated, USA-sourced ingredients wherever possible, and avoid additives and preservatives to make sure that all our products are:

• Wholesome

• Healthy

• Delicious

We’re proud to say that the vast majority - 99% - of our treats are made right here in the USA.

If a product isn’t from the USA, it’s because it’s not available here - like, for instance, our premium golden Himalayan yak dog chews.

It’s simple! Single ingredient means there’s only one ingredient in the package you’re buying.

Single or limited ingredient food and treats are our response to concerns from many pet owners about sensitivities or allergies their pets have to more commercial brands, which could cause fur, skin or gastrointestinal issues. By focusing on premium, single ingredient products, we aim to eliminate these concerns.

Please note that it could be a good idea to get several different types of treats, so that your pet can enjoy a more balanced, diverse, well-rounded diet, with all the nutrients it needs.

We pride ourselves on our carefully selected Grade-A products, which are superior to many commercially available treats in that they contain only single ingredients of the highest quality and are made in a wholesome and healthy manner.

If you want the best, healthiest, most nutritious, made-in-America treats for the pet you love, Tickled Pet is for you.

Fish skins are rich in collagen and are popular as a raw material for skin care products and vegetarian gelatin. Since fish skins are between four and seven percent of the fish’s total weight, they are an endless, sustainable commodity. 

Collagen is a key component in both vertebrates and invertebrates and is generally found in the tendons, bones, cartilage and connective tissue of mammals. Past studies have shown that collagen represents about 60% of the animal’s body protein and 30% of all the organic matter of the source animal.

In dried fish skins, collagen is in its original, untreated form. 

Chinese practitioners have believed for thousands of years that when skin is damaged, the cure is to consume skin. Popular science has supported that finding in recent decades, as collagen has become more and more popular as a proven health product. Collagen has been shown to strengthen skin, through improving its hydration and elastic properties. Natural wound repair and joint relief are both aided by collagen properties. Collagen in the muscles keeps them strong while less acne is another proven benefit. 

As mammals age, the body no longer produces collagen as efficiently. A daily collagen supplement is advised. 

It is clear that people and pets need collagen daily. For dogs, there is no richer source than dehydrated, scale reduced fish skins.

Our treats are produced in FDA/USDA approved plants that have either food standards or the highest standard for pet food (GFSI). 

None of our treats have a pledge for irradiation.  

Our plant is approved for export to Canada and Korea, where we have to meet the following standards. 

All poultry is heated over 57°C for 14 minutes , and/or 74°C for 5 minutes. 

All Bovinae(Cattle) is heated to 70°C for 30 minutes ,79°C for 30 seconds or 90°C internal temperature.  

Fish items and Dairy items have no time/temperature requirements, since our fish drying has a better result at lower temperatures.  

Sweet Potatoes we can dry under 115°F so they can have the RAW stamp on them ,  however we have heated them up to 125°F. 

Irradiation,is something we have talked about doing , by microwaves , but since our raw materials are sourced , produced in highest standard plants , we don't see immediate need for doing that at this time.
