What Are Green Dog Products

When we use the word green, we mean ‘sustainable.’ This means that the pet product, ingredient, or service is created with thought to conserving resources. Green products have less environmental impact and negative impact to our pet’s health when compared to a traditionally-made item. While nearly impossible to find pet products that are 100% green, the goal is to select those that are ‘as green as possible’ - while we work with pet brands to expand green production. Typically, green dog products are:

Made with energy efficiency and have lower natural resource requirements.
Free from chemicals that impact the ozone, as well as no toxic compounds nor toxic by-products.
Recycled materials are used when possible.
Ingredients are from local manufacturers or resources where possible.
Biodegradable, in part or in whole.
