Spratt's idea was to make this cheap and easy to serve biscuit to the growing population of "urban" dog owners. He concocted a recipe of wheat, beet root and vegetables that were bound by beef blood and in 1860 he dubbed the name of these treats "Spratt's Patent Meal Fibrine Dog Cakes." They were a huge hit in England, so in 1870, he took this business to America and thus began the American pet food industry.
This spawned a growing trend...
In 1880, A.C. Daniels a Boston Veterinarian introduce A.C. Daniels Medicated Dog Bread, which was at the time one of the versions of dog food...
In 1908, F.H. Bennet Biscuit Company had opened, making the first puppy food which was packaged in different sized bags of kibble for different breeds. F.H. Bennet also made a dog biscuit treat in the shape of a bone, Originally named "Maltoid Milk-Bone", this dog biscuit treat was made from meat products and milk.
In 1931, F.H. Bennet Biscuit Company was bought out by the National Biscuit Company, now named Nabisco and changed the Maltoid Milk-Bone to simply "Milk-Bone".
Sadly, the majority of the Dog Biscuits made today are not made with the same simple ingredients as they were then, even though wheat was a major ingredient. Wheat then is not the wheat we know as now. Wheat we know today is called "Franken Wheat" and has this name due to having been bread to be more plentiful. It is a high glycemic food and contains different glutens than it use to. Corn and Soy are also included in treats which have GMO's. Along with the wheat, corn and soy you find in many of the dog treats on the market, the manufacturers are also including the similar by-products, chemicals, artificial flavoring, coloring and preservatives you find in dog foods. None of which is healthy for our dogs.
As a society, we are looking at bettering our own health with the foods and treats we purchase, yet many still continue to overlook their dogs. They depend upon us to provide them with healthy foods and treats as we are doing for ourselves however, many are still reaching for the commercially manufactured treats containing ingredients unhealthy for our dogs.
