About Good Paws Bakery

Our goal is to support and strengthen the loving connection between people and their canine friends and family members.  

Good Paws got started with the help of these two guys…  

We loved them, but sometimes we had to go places where we could not bring them. This is a typical look we get when leaving the house without them.   2 dogs wondering where mom is going

When on a trip away from home (either for a few days or a few hours), it is challenging to find at least a “little something” to bring back – just so they would KNOW we were thinking of them. Choices are often laden with not-so-great ingredients for dogs, or are expensive people toys that they destroy in 5 minutes. So we started this company with the hope of providing a conveniently available, healthful option that both canines and their people can feel good about!

We sell our treats online, in some local New Hampshire stores and places where you may or may not be able to bring your dog.

About the treats themselves... 

We wanted a gluten free, grain free treat that had no corn, wheat or soy.  We tried a number of gluten free flours.  Working with chickpea flour has proved to be a really great option. From there we add just a couple more ingredients for each of our yummy recipes.

All our ingredients are sourced from places where people buy their food.  One of the first pieces of advice we got was from a mom who said, "no matter what you do, make sure the treats are OK for my kids to eat because they will be the first to try them."  Well we are happy to report, we have met that goal.  We often eat the treats ourselves much to the chagrin of our 4-legged pups. Our treats are non-gmo, human-grade, and really are OK for sharing :)  

We bake our treats dry and they stay fresh for at least a year.

We started by first making the treats at home.  Once we knew we had something that dogs enjoyed and people felt good about, we made them in a shared commercial kitchen.  The shared kitchen was a wonderful place to meet other "food people" and have access to the larger equipment.

While in the shared kitchen, we also worked with Easterseals New Hampshire.  This type of community collaboration had always been a goal of ours, and we were excited to work with our contract employees and their staff to provide work they enjoyed.

Our most recent step is that we are now making them in a larger, commercial bakery.   This is a HUGE step for us, for it allows us to provide treats for more dogs which we were unable to do before.

The treats look slightly different than before, but they are of a similar size and continue to get rave reviews.

We love partnering with other dog-loving people! -  we were founding members of the New Hampshire Dog Walking Club which is now the Golden Dog Adventure Company.

We also had a nice article written about us in our local Windham Magazine.

As we continue to grow, our goal is to increase the amount of profits given to animal related charitable organizations.  That was really the reason we even picked the Good Paws name!  Until we are able to make larger financial donations, described in our Giving Back page are a few other ways we support animal charities.

We hope you will try our treats, and we sincerely hope the dogs in your life love them!  Please join our mailing list and keep track of us - we will soon provide helpful information and tips to truly strengthen the connection between people and the animals they love. 

Warmly,

Gina Anderson (Founder) and all of us at Good Paws - Dunkin and Abby :-)
