"He was nine months old when I rescued him, all skin and bones, very poorly with E-coil, so I started to bake him treats so I knew exactly what he was eating. Now he fit and healthy comes everywhere with me."
Husband Steve who owns a software company designed the bakery website which only launched in January and already has been met with rave reviews from customers including feedback saying the treats have aided their dogs anxiety.
She added: "I'm really passionate about the quality of product. My ethos is to have local, traceable and sourceable ingredients so pet owners can be assured of what goes into their pets food. Our meat is free range from Spout House farm and our honey is from a local award-winning bee keeper.
