Our Story…
Gourmutt’s Bakery was founded in 2000 out of a growing concern for the health and well-being of our beautiful Golden Retriever, Zoe.
After consulting with numerous veterinarians and a canine allergy specialist, we learned of the numerous preservatives and unhealthy ingredients used in many dog foods and treats. For example, the ingredient Propylene Glycol (commonly found in soft treats) is a chemical used as a solvent in brake fluid. In pet food it is used as a preservative and flavor enhancer due to its sweet taste. We chose to make Zoe better tasting treats that are also nutritionally better for her.
We began experimenting with numerous recipes and after lots of trial and error, we came up with treats that Zoe loves and we felt good about giving her. Other dog lovers learned about our healthy homemade treats and started requesting cookies.
Due to the tremendous popularity of our treats the company has grown from our kitchen to our new retail bakery in Raleigh, NC. Stop by and visit us at:

Caring For The Environment
To the extent possible we make choices in our shipping, packaging, production, and facilities management that are friendly to the environment.
Care & Handling of Our Treats
Our treats are baked fresh daily. Due to our multiple step baking process your treats will stay fresh for approximately six months when handled properly.
You DO NOT need to refrigerate out treats unless notified (i.e. cakes). Cookies should be stored in a cool dry place in a NON-air tight container. If your canine companion will not be enjoying our treats within six months they may be frozen (our treats that is!).
