Product Information

DO SKIPPER'S TREATS CONTAIN ANY ARTIFICIAL ADDITIVES
No, we don't use artificial additives of any kind in any of our products. In fact we like to keep things as simple as possible so many of our products contain only single ingredients, meaning you can be sure of exactly what it is you're feeding to your dog.
DOES IT MATTER IF I MOISTEN THE JERKY
Not at all, the Vikings frequently used to re-hydrate their dried fish.
MY DOG SUFFERS FROM STOMACH UPSETS, WOULD DRIED FISH BE OK FOR HIM?
Our treats should be perfect for him! Although each individual case is different, fish is highly digestible and low in saturated fat and rarely causes dogs problems of any kind.
ARE THESE PRODUCTS SUITABLE FOR PUPPIES?
Most of our treats are absolutely suitable for puppies. Not only will they keep their teeth clean but the Omega oils will help them develop and keep their coat shiny and healthy too!

Some of our products may be a bit too much too chew on depending on their age however, so we've made it possible for you to narrow down your search to products suitable for puppies using the filters on the product category pages.

HOW SHOULD I STORE YOUR PRODUCTS
You should store our products in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. A cupboard or a draw is absolutely fine.

While our products don't need to be sealed in an airtight container to last their shelf life, we would recommend it. Being a natural product, our treats can be quite pungent, so storing them in an air tight container can help alleviate the smell in your storage space.
