Everything about Pure Buffalo Chews is great

Everything about this product is great – great re-sealable packing, great value and great natural ingredients. That was the verdict of the New Product Award judges at PATS Sandown, which voted the Pure Buffalo Chew from Loving Pets UK the Best Dog Treat.

Loving Pets manufactures its own range of treats in-house in its New Jersey facility in America, which is SQF Level two approved and EU approved. The ingredients are sourced in the USA so the company can control the high quality it requires for the range.

Every treat in the Loving Pets range is stringently tested by dogs in the US. The range of Pure Buffalo Chews is featured in a picture gallery below.

As well as producing the award-winning Pure Buffalo Chew, Loving Pets is the No.1 supplier of dog bowls worldwide. The Bella Bowl sells on average around half a million units a month, and the 'Le Bol' dog bowl also won a New Product Award at PATS Telford last September.

Since its inception in 2005, Loving Pets remains true to the original vision of offering pets and the people that love them high-quality, healthy, and affordable pet treats, bowls, and accessories.

Loving Pets leads the pet industry by:
  1. Manufacturing and producing dog and cat treats made with only 100% all-natural, high-quality ingredients, designed with the pet’s health in mind.
  2. Innovating the industry with decorative and functional pet feeding accessories made with durable, high-quality and easy to clean materials.
  3. Offering a proprietary Tested in the USA program that certifies the quality and safety of each of our treats.
  4. Focusing on customer satisfaction and product innovation through creative and healthy treat combinations, as well as innovative, eco-friendly and solution-oriented bowls, accessories and designs.
  5. Supporting our global pet-loving community by educating pet owners on the benefits of 100% all-natural ingredients, donating to pet shelters, rescues and pet-related causes across the USA, supporting not-for-profit organizations like Pets for Vets, and creating jobs and additional quality control by manufacturing our own Made in the USA treats on-site in New Jersey.
Lou Dalwin, the grandfather of Loving Pets’ Founder and President Eric Abbey, was one of the original founding members of APPMA (now APPA).

Working for Aquarium Stock Company, an aquatic company founded in the early 1900′s, Lou took over that business around 1930 and owned it through the 1980′s.

Aquarium Stock Company was a whole city block in Manhattan and had over 10,000 aquariums and aquatic products. Before there was a New York Aquarium, bus and school tours used to visit ASC to learn about fish, plants and aquatic species; ASC partnered with the Sears Roebuck catalog starting in the 1950s, so for the first time, people could order aquatic products including live fish all over the United States.

Eric’s father, Kenneth Abbey worked for Lou (his father in law), and then launched Petcetera in 1972 and operated that until 2006. Eric started working with his father in 1994 doing sales, marketing and product development.

Eric’s mother is a world-reknowned nutritionist, radio show host, researcher, and author and was a huge influence on him and his education about healthy, all-natural ingredients and their corresponding health benefits, which translates every day into the ingredients chosen for Loving Pets treats.

Eric stays committed to the pet industry due to the incredible people and the industry itself – “Our industry is unique in that there is always a positive energy from the development level to the manufacturing level to the store level to the end-consumer,” states Eric Abbey. “It’s full of passionate and creative people that care about pets.”
