Dog Cookies by Iris is a proudly Canadian company, based out of Cobble Hill, British Columbia. Dog Cookies by Iris was started by the
company's President, Iris Gilchrist, in her own kitchen for the love of her own two beagles, back in 1987. Because Iris loved her two dogs
so very much, and she wasn't finding the type of quality product on the market that she wanted for her own dogs, she decided to create her
own product for them!
Taking a generic recipe she found in the newspaper, she slowly began substituting the ingredients with healthier alternatives and eventually
settled on what is now known as the Iris Cookies original recipe. Iris made these original recipe cookies for years, for her own dogs and for
friends' dogs as gifts. Eventually people started ordering cookies from her for special occasions and were paying for the healthy treats.
From there, Iris started selling the cookies both privately and at a few Craft shows. Iris Cookies were such a success, that she began building
a larger following of loyal dog treat buyers. Her original recipe cookie became so popular and the demand became so large, that she knew she
had a real business going.
Iris knew she couldn't make it alone on a single cookie recipe and has since developed several other healthy treats for dogs. Based on the original
recipe, Iris began creating tiny, bite size squares, which now are known as bacon trainer bits! From there, such treats as Bacon and Molasses
Cookie Bars, Bacon, Beet and Alfalfa Swirls, Cheesy Sweet Potato Kelpie Treats, Cheesy Breadsticks, Savory Veggie Hearts, Peanut Butter Bears,
Liver Kelpie Rye Snacks, Kelpie Liver Cakes and many additional recipes were added to the original recipe cookies to make a variety of healthy,
human grade treats unlike any others on the market.
Iris Cookies are now successfully sold in retail stores throughout lower Vancouver Island. The quality of the product has never been compromised
though, because Iris still makes every cookie by herself. Each quality cookie is rolled, cut, baked, inspected and packaged by Iris, resulting in the
utmost highest standards. In fact, Iris cookies are made to human grade quality and organic ingredients are used whenever possible.
We hope you will agree that Iris Cookies are nutritiously sound, and bring joy to your hound. Dog Cookies by Iris are the best around. Please
