Why We Use Oat Flour in Furship Dog Treats

 

At Furship, we believe every treat should reflect the love and care you feel for your furry friends. That’s why we’re committed to using only the highest-quality, healthiest ingredients in our made-to-order treats. One of our key ingredients is oat flour—and there’s a good reason for that!

 

Why Oat Flour?

 

Unlike traditional wheat or all-purpose flours, oat flour is naturally gluten-free, making it easier for dogs to digest. Gluten can sometimes irritate a dog’s stomach or trigger allergies, so choosing oat flour is a safer, gentler option for sensitive pups.

 

But the benefits don’t stop there! Oat flour is packed with essential nutrients that contribute to your dog’s overall health, including:

1. Fiber for Digestion:

Oats are rich in soluble fiber, which helps regulate your dog’s digestive system. Whether your pup struggles with constipation or occasional loose stools, treats made with oat flour can promote a healthy gut.

2. Energy-Boosting Carbohydrates:

Dogs are active creatures that need energy to play, explore, and snuggle. Oat flour provides slow-releasing carbohydrates, giving your pup sustained energy without sugar spikes or crashes.

3. Essential Vitamins and Minerals:

Oat flour contains vitamins like B1 and B3, as well as minerals such as manganese, phosphorus, and magnesium. These nutrients support healthy bones, coat shine, and overall vitality.

4. Low Allergen Potential:

Many dogs are sensitive to common allergens found in wheat or soy-based flours. Oat flour is a hypoallergenic alternative, making it a safe choice for most pups, even those with food sensitivities.

 

Oat Flour vs. Other Flours

 

While other flours like almond or coconut may also be healthy, oat flour stands out because it’s mild in flavor and texture, making it highly palatable to dogs. It’s also more affordable and sustainable, allowing us to create treats that are accessible to a wide range of pet parents.

 

Our Commitment to Your Pup’s Health

 

At Furship, every ingredient is chosen with care. From the oats we grind into flour to the human-grade ingredients we use in all our treats, our focus is on providing snacks that are both delicious and beneficial to your dog’s health.

 

The next time you give your pup a Furship treat, you can feel confident knowing it’s made with love, care, and thoughtfully chosen ingredients—like oat flour—to keep them happy and healthy.
