Vegan dog treats are an excellent option for dogs with common allergies to animal proteins. They’re also a popular choice for pet parents who want to reduce their pet’s carbon footprint. These treats use less resources to produce and create less greenhouse gasses than traditional, meat-based treats. Yet they’re still super delicious and full of nutrients. It’s a win-win!
