Small-batch dog treats, proudly made in Philadelphia. Thoughtful recipes, real ingredients, and a commitment to doing good for animals in need.
Good treats start with thoughtful choices.
I pay just as much attention to what I leave out as what I put in. My treats are made without artificial colors or flavors, added salt, or added sugar. Just real, recognizable ingredients chosen with purpose.
Every batch is made in a commercial kitchen right here in Philadelphia. I’m ServSafe-certified and take food handling, sanitation, and preparation seriously from start to finish.
Thoughtfully made treats shouldn’t have to come with an unreasonable price tag. I work to keep my treats accessible while giving every batch the care and attention it deserves.
I believe dogs deserve the same attention to ingredient quality that we expect for ourselves. I source human-grade ingredients and take care in how every treat is prepared.

Dogs have been part of our family for over 20 years, but Peanut and Bowie are the inspiration behind it all. Their own journeys, along with our desire to give them healthier lives, sparked my interest in canine nutrition and creating treats with thoughtful, quality ingredients.
What started in our own kitchen grew into Bow-Nut Bites, a small business built on a love for dogs, a passion for better treats, and the belief that doing good should be part of doing business.
We’re out meeting fellow pet lovers at markets and events throughout the Greater Philadelphia area and New Jersey. Check out where we’ll be next and stop by to say hello!

I’ve enjoyed creating custom orders for customers and am always open to discussing new ideas. Reach out through our contact page or email me at scott.mayhugh@bownutbites.com and we’ll work out the details together!Our treats are packaged with moisture and oxygen absorbers to help maintain freshness. Store unopened packages in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. Each package has a best-by date to help you enjoy your treats at their best.
Once opened, reseal the package between uses and continue storing in a cool, dry placeEach package has a best-by date printed on it to help you enjoy our treats at their best. Our dehydrated protein treats have a 6-month best-by window, while our baked biscuits have a 4-month window from production.
These timeframes apply to unopened packages stored in a cool, dry place. Once opened, treats will gradually lose freshness over time, even when resealed, since zipper closures aren’t airtight. For the best quality, keep packages sealed between uses and enjoy them sooner rather than later.I source ingredients from a variety of suppliers, including farms, restaurant supply stores, and supermarkets. My priority is finding quality ingredients from reliable sources while keeping my treats reasonably priced.
I also appreciate the value of supporting local suppliers whenever possible, and as my business grows, I hope to make even more opportunities for local sourcing.All Bow-Nut Bites treats are made by me at Culinary Collective, a commercial kitchen in Philadelphia, PA. I prepare and package each batch myself, giving me hands-on involvement throughout the process.
It all started with Bowie and Peanut! I wanted to be more thoughtful about what I was feeding my own dogs, so I began making treats with real ingredients and recipes I felt good about giving them.
As I shared those treats with other pet parents, I kept hearing, “You should sell these!” What started as something just for my own dogs eventually grew into Bow-Nut Bites. The name itself is a little tribute to the two of them: Bow(ie) + (Pea)Nut. They’re the inspiration behind the business, and they’re still very much part of it today!
