Ingredients
Buckwheat (organic), flax (organic), pumpkin (organic), arrowroot (organic), blackstrap molasses (organic), water, turmeric (organic), gelatin, ascorbic acid (vitamin C as a preservative), ginger (organic), and black pepper.
Please note ingredient change. Organic arrowroot added as of 8/30/20.
A little known fact is that curcumin, the active ingredient in turmeric, isn’t absorbed very well by the body, dogs or humans. With the addition of a little black pepper, the body can more easily absorb it, thus getting all its benefits.
Shelf Life
KEEP REFRIGERATED. Treats are soft and will last 6+ weeks if kept in the refrigerator. Freeze for up to 3 months.
Feeding Instructions
Depending on your dog’s weight and activity level, give 1-4 treats daily. Begin with a smaller serving (break treat in half) to gauge your dog’s sensitivity to the ingredients, then gradually increase to the suggested daily amount if needed*.
NOTE: Give these treats a few times throughout the day because curcumin leaves the body quickly.
*Treats are not meant to take the place of veterinary care. Please see your vet long before your dog’s mobility issues become problematic.

I have been giving hippies to my almost 7 year old black lab for about 9 months now. She absolutely loves them and gets excited as soon as I get the bag out of the fridge. I worry about her hips as she gets older and want to make sure I do my best to keep her healthy and comfortable always. With all the all natural organic ingredients in hippies I know they will help her overall joint and hip health. Thank you Broomstick Dog Treats for providing such high quality treats for my pup.
