🚨 BREAKING NEWS 🚨

Some dogs have waited patiently. Some have not.

Either way, after 10 months, Chonkers are finally back! 🎉

For the past 10 months, one of the most common questions we've been asked is, "Have you got any Chonkers yet?"

Well, the answer is finally YES.

🥜 Peanut Butter Chonkers
🥛 Goat Milk Chonkers

ARE. BACK.

We can't promise they'll stick around forever, especially now that the local dogs have caught wind of their return.

If your dog has been staring sadly at the treat cupboard, wondering where their favourite chew went, now might be the time to make things right. 😆

Available now at The Cats & Dogs Dinner Company.

Hello. My name is Zulu 🐾

Today I came into the shop with Dad for my weekly essentials:
• meat top up
• treat jar refill

Apparently, the treat jar was “getting low”.

Personally, I felt this was an unacceptable situation that required immediate action.

Thankfully, I supervised the restocking process very closely.

Regards,
Zulu

Hello. My name is Moss 🐾

Today was our monthly stock-up day.

As you can see from the counter, I take this responsibility very seriously.

There were treats.
There were chews.
There were enough snacks to survive at least several business days.

Mum called it “stocking up”.

I call it planning ahead.

Regards,
Moss

Hello. My name is Gus 🐾

I am a Jack Russell/Foxy cross and I have two main hobbies:
• worrying about things
• eating treats

I have been working with Sophie from Pawsitive Behaviours on being a bit braver and learning that the world is not actually trying to kill me.

It is exhausting work.

Today I brought Mum into the shop with me so I could get out of my comfort zone and, more importantly, snacks.

Personally, I feel I handled the situation very courageously.

Regards,
Gus

PS. I've just seen these photos of me. Damn, I'm really good-looking!

This little sweetheart is Chloe 🐾

Chloe is a 4-month-old Toy Poodle who came in for some very important taste-testing duties.

After careful consideration, she decided her favourites were:
• Chicken Necks
• Beef & GLM Bites

Tiny little princess energy… with surprisingly strong opinions about snacks 😂

This is Damien 🐾

Damien came in and selected:
• Venison Trachea
• Pick N Mix chews

A very solid life decision.

For those who have not seen our Pick N Mix before, it is basically a treasure hunt for dogs. A mix of different natural chews and treats where dogs can sample a bit of everything instead of committing to just one favourite.

Damien approached the selection process with great seriousness and professionalism.

By professionalism, we mean:
intense staring, sniffing, and the belief that every single chew in the shop belonged to him.

Honestly, fair enough.

Violet the Briard came in today and chose herself a gorgeous Lilac Adventure Harness and matching lead 💜

The funny part?

She lives on a lavender farm 😂 Violet, Lilac & Lavender!

Honestly, we could not have picked a more perfect colour for her if we tried.

She is such a chill girl.

Safe to say Violet left looking very stylish today 💜

New toy. Zero regrets. 💥

Stevie the Staffy picked up a Boomer Ball today and wasted no time putting it to the test 😂
Safe to say it’s already a favourite.

These balls are tough, hard to destroy, and perfect for dogs who love to chase, push, and play hard.

Who else has a dog obsessed with their Boomer Ball? 👇
