February 2016, we received an order of diabetic treats from Jean in NY for her dog Champ. "He loves your treats" said Jean.
February 2021 sadly we processed our last order for Champ. Almost every month for the last 5 years we have been shipping Champ his diabetic treats. Champ and Jean are almost legendary at the Old Dog. It just seemed right that after 5 years of being an Old Dog fan sweet Champ deserved a spot front and center on our website!
We know that often a lot of worry comes with a canine diabetes diagnosis. However did you know currently diabetic dogs receiving treatment often have the same expected life span as non diabetic dogs of the same age and gender? Just like Champ, our dog Jetty (whom we started Old Dog after) lived with diabetes for 7 years, passing at 16 years old. We are so grateful that our diabetic treats were a part of Champs nutritional journey with diabetes and hope we made life a little tastier for him. To Jean and your sweet Champ....."everyone is taught angels have wings but the lucky ones of us find they have 4 paws." Thank you Champ and Jean for your years of business. - All of us at Old Dog
Meet our August Old Dog fan of the month. Bessie has diabetes, IBD, IBS, Allergies and Acid Reflux. She has been on a strict diet with NO treats, until her pet mom found our Diabetic Tiny Treats. We hope you will check out how this "boss girl" finally got to indulge again!
Meet O.D. Named for the Police Officer (Officer Davis) who was able to catch this stray and get him off the streets, so he could then be adopted. O.D's diabetic journey began 4 years ago and so did his love for Old Dog Diabetic treats. O.D. has an amazing veterinarian team and does Libre Sensor monitoring every 6 months. O.D's mom told us his vet team "is pleased with his insulin numbers and he's as healthy as a diabetic dog can be!"
One of the most rewarding parts of what we do is getting to know the incredible dogs (and their devoted humans) who choose our treats. Meet Khloe, this very fashionable girl was diagnosed with diabetes twice!
