Started on a Seattle houseboat in 1998

The company's own timeline says Blue Dog Bakery and its mascot, Ruffy, were born on a small houseboat in Seattle in 1998. The first product was a low-fat biscuit. In 2005 the line grew to soft and chewy treats, and in 2012, after 14 years of baking, the brand redesigned its look.

Today the crunchy range includes More Crunch, Mini Crunch and Doggie Paws, and the soft range is sold as Softies. The FAQ notes that most of the crunchy and soft treats are vegetarian and get their flavor from natural flavorings. MarrowBakes are the exception.

Where the treats and ingredients come from

The FAQ answers the origin question directly: "We make all of our treats and packaging in the USA." The homepage repeats that the company makes all of its treats in the USA and says it has had no recalls.

Ingredients are mostly domestic. Blue Dog Bakery says it sources almost all of them from the United States, but some, such as spices and sustainable palm oil, come from outside North America. It says it does not source any ingredients from China. The company does not name the town where its treats are baked.
