I’ve been a ‘dog person’ all my life.   And with experience in working with dogs, I have become a passionate supporter of holistic health.  Baking for my Daisy allowed me to know exactly what was going into her dog treats and to manage her intolerance to some ingredients. It also helped me to avoid additives, artificial colours and preservatives which are found in most commercial dog treats. She loved them (and still does).  All of our recipes are “Daisy tested and approved.”

In July 2007,  I got thinking: “There are probably other people who feel the same way about what they feed their dog. I’ll go public!” and so I launched Canine Catering.

In October 2009, I added canine therapeutic massage to the company practice after training in the United States.  In December 2009, I completed study in Pet Nutrition through Colorado State University achieving an A mark. I have also pledged to pursue other, continuing education to keep my skills fresh and up-to-date.

All of our treats are handmade in small batches. These are dog treats only – and not marketed as a complete diet/dog food. We have special products like doggy birthday cakes that we can make to order and we always offer special packaging for Christmas. Most of all, I will work with individual owners, breeders and vets to develop recipes that meet the needs of dogs with special diets and preferences.  No other company making dog treats in New Zealand offers this option and we are the original niche baker of dog treats (accept no imitations)!

All of our treats are made using first quality ingredients including SPCA approved eggs and no preservatives. We source our honey from a local supplier, Ellesmere Apiaries. We will not use peanut butter that is Made in China.

Because we care about dogs and their health, we aim to keep our prices low and competitive. We only deal with outlets that share our philosophy that the dogs come first. Doesn’t your dog deserve the best? Try Canine Catering today! Best wishes, Kathleen Crisley, CTMT, MNZIM Christchurch, New Zealand
