Pure Instinct
Vendor
I am a local small-batch producer of freeze-dried pet treats, developed through my work as a dog walker and trainer in the Cincinnati area. My products are single-ingredient, minimally processed, and designed to serve as high-value, nutrient-dense rewards for both dogs and cats. I focus on simple, transparent ingredients: such as chicken, beef heart, salmon, and whole-prey fish, without any fillers or additives. I also prioritize thoughtful sourcing, including working with local suppliers and utilizing cuts that might otherwise go underused, helping reduce waste while maintaining high product quality. My goal is to offer a premium, health-conscious option that aligns with the values of pet owners who prioritize quality nutrition and intentional care for their animals. I am currently launching in a limited capacity to maintain product quality and consistency while building strong relationships with my own clients and hopefully other local members of the community.
Freeze dried, handcrafted, small batch, single ingredient, locally produced, no additives or preservatives.

I am the owner and operator of a Cincinnati-based pet care business, where I provide dog walking, house sitting, and basic training services for a wide range of clients. Through my work, I’ve gained hands-on experience with dogs of different ages, temperaments, and behavioral needs, particularly in training environments where high-quality rewards play a critical role in motivation and learning.
My interest in pet nutrition developed naturally through this work, as I began creating simple, single-ingredient treats for my own pets and for the animals in my care. Over time, I refined these into freeze-dried products that are highly palatable, nutrient-dense, and minimally processed. This background allows me to approach treat-making not just as a product, but as a functional tool that supports training, enrichment, and overall well-being.
I am committed to producing small-batch, thoughtfully sourced treats that reflect both practical experience and a strong emphasis on ingredient quality, transparency, and care for the animals they are intended for.
