Meet Manson, Dylan and Ozzi aka ‘The Lovely Boys’ and my gourmet guests for this doggie biscotti review.

So, let me tell you about this special dog biscuit, cutely named ‘Barkotti’. The canine companion treat by Dr Harvey’s is handmade using only natural and organic ingredients. It boasts an impressive list of qualities which, it seems, can be attributed to all of Dr Harvey’s products:

• No artificial colours or flavours
• No preservatives - absolutely none
• No added sugar or salt.

This doggie treat is vegetarian too and contains a variety of vegetables, apple and herbs as well as organic oat and barley flour, honey, molasses and bee pollen.

OK, a healthy dog biscotti is all well and good but if it’s not tasty it won’t cut it, right? Of course I’m not the one to judge the yumminess of these treats but if my lovely canine assistants could talk they would tell you that they like them. I guess the proof is here in the pictures. Here’s Manson politely taking a piece of Barkotti and Ozzi helping himself:

And here’s Dylan nom nomming his way through one of the biscuits:

I like the ethos that runs through Dr Harvey’s which, as the story goes, came about through a genuine care for animals and animal health.

Founder of the company, Dr Harvey Cohen, has been making human grade food products for companion animals for over 20 years and is dedicated to educating owners about why pets need a healthy, natural diet. Being a teacher and a lecturer Dr Harvey is happy to answer questions about companion animals to help you understand your furry or feathered friend a little better.

Dr Harvey’s care doesn’t stop at the animals. He cares for the environment too by avoiding chemicals in his products and supporting the growth of organic trade as a member of the Organic Trade Association. The Barkotti packaging is even green, made from 100% recycled and recyclable card and printed with soy based ink.

As well as Barkotti Dr Harvey’s produces a variety of natural and organics foods, treats and supplements for dogs, cats, birds and horses.
