Our Story
We Put Your Dogs First
Dominic was frustrated looking for the right treats for his dogs. One after another, none gave him satisfaction. He would come across poor quality imported products that were not produced to standards and were mislabelled, which often made his dogs ill. So much time and effort was consumed and all he wanted was to give his pups, his family, the love and treats that they deserved.
One afternoon, while walking his dog, an exciting yet scary thought came to his mind. “Why don’t I produce the treats for my dog? In fact, I can do it for other dogs too. I’m a trained chef, I’ve the knowledge and decades of years of experience in the food industry! I can do this!” He went out there and found a group of people who shared the same passion to make this dream happen. Little did he know the countless setbacks that were coming to his way or that he would turn into one of the largest producers in the country! But at the time, the one thing he was holding on to most was the unwavering desire to add value to any dogs’ life he could through great quality treats.
In 2011, Pet Treats Wholesale Ltd. came into existence. It has had the honour to satisfy thousands of dogs all over the world as well as their owners, build their trust and maintain relationships over the past decade. This is the pride and joy of the entire Pet Treats Wholesale team. He is humbled and thrilled to continue this journey with a goal in mind which is to put your dogs first.
Nothing less than to produce Natural Treats with only British & EU approved products and gourmet sausages made with only the finest quality British meats that are not only wholesome goodness but also supporting the British farmers and meat industry.
Before the products go on the website, they are thoroughly tested by the resident office dogs - meet them here!
Hoddy - August 2009
The oldest, Hoddy is a small lurcher - a cross between a whippet and a staffordshire bull terrier. Any visitors to the office will usually be greeted by her first, as she considers it her life mission to make sure nothing happens without her approval!
In her younger years she was an agility superstar, and even competed at Crufts twice, but has now retired from that to focus on alternative pursuits - mostly the pursuit of snacks! She really enjoys taking part in photoshoots for the product images on the website.
In June 2022 she qualified for the Scruffts - a nationwide competition celebrating crossbreed dogs - semi final, to be held in the main arena at Crufts 2023!

Lance - July 2012
Lance the whippet doesn’t often come into the office, as he much prefers to spend his days lounging around at home - like any self respecting whippet he quite often isn’t even out of bed until past 9am!
When he is awake, he works very hard on training his humans - and has taught us to give him a fish skin cube at lunchtime, then a gourmet stick (his current preferred flavour is beef and vegetable) every evening at 9pm. Any treats have to be carefully locked away - on the one occasion where they weren’t he attempted to eat his way through 3kg of chicken and cheese sticks in a single sitting! Despite the ensuing vet trip, and a couple of days feeling a bit sorry for himself, we have no doubt he would do it again if given the chance!

Millie - July 2016
Part whippet, part cat - Millie spends her days in the office lounging on top of the desk - next to the radiator, and the window for some optimal sunbathing! Similar to Lance, she likes to lead a leisurely life, but can, on occasion, be encouraged to zoom around an agility course. Quite often this is in her own order, but with the help of some duck pate - her favourite variety - she occasionally does win!
Millie was a rescue dog from Snowdonia Animal Sanctuary - and whilst she didn’t have the best start in life, she is more than making up for it now!

Zym - November 2018
Zym is the smallest office canine - an Australian Silky Terrier - and is quite often found by my feet. Although he is little, he is so incredibly versatile. Whilst we mainly compete in agility, he loves canicross and heelwork to music (dog dancing). He’s also done some training in flyball and obedience. He is the cover star of our health benefits guide and has been a model for Aldi!
When not in the office, Zym enjoys making sure his humans get plenty of exercise - and, like all terriers, barking!
