More often than not at Watson & Wallie, we hear this: “My dog has only a few teeth — she can’t chew anything hard!”
We get it. And we’ve been listening.
That’s why we’ve been quietly working behind the scenes on something soft, special, and still packed with purpose: a gummy dog treat in the flavor of blueberry cucumber. Inspired by pups who need a gentler bite but still deserve a treat that’s both healthy and delicious, this gummy has been one of our most ambitious projects yet. Let’s just say — it's been a journey. Gummies are a whole different ballgame from our signature crisps and chews. Getting the texture right without artificial junk? Tricky. Making them shelf-stable and safe without needing refrigeration? Even trickier. And doing all of that while staying true to our standards for clean, functional ingredients? You guessed it — the trickiest of all.
We’ve gone through trial after trial — tweaking, testing, reformulating — trying to balance texture, flavor, and nutrition. Some batches were too soft. Others too sticky. A few just didn’t hold together at all. Others shrunk to almost nothing. But we never gave up. And maybe, just maybe, today’s the day. This latest batch feels different. Smells fresh. Holds its shape. Tastes (according to our in-house treat testers) pretty darn good. We’re not calling it a win just yet — but we’re closer than we’ve ever been. And for all the dogs out there with delicate mouths and big appetites? That’s reason enough to keep trying. Stay tuned — the gummy revolution might just be coming to a treat jar near you.
