PERHAM, MINN. — Tuffy’s Pet Foods, Inc. announced July 7 it has partnered with Girl Scouts of the USA (GSUSA) in a licensing agreement to produce a line of dog treats under the Girl Scout brand. The Girl Scout Soft & Chewy Dog Treats launched across the United States in June.

“Girl Scouts has long equipped girls with the tools they need to become ambitious leaders who create powerful change in their communities and the world, and many Girl Scouts take action to help animals through their projects,” said Chase Rasmussen, vice president of Tuffy’s. “We know Girl Scout Soft & Chewy Dog Treats will be special to our dogs, who are such important parts of our families.”

The treats — available in chicken, bacon and lamb — are formulated with limited ingredients, high levels of antioxidants and feature animal meat as their No. 1 ingredients. The treats are free from gluten, soy and corn.

Tuffy’s Girl Scout dog treats are available through girlscoutpettreats.com and Amazon.com. The company plans to expand distribution of these treats in the brick-and-mortar pet specialty market over the next few months.
