Giving Thanks

It's a tradition in our home, like many I know, to share with friends and family what we are thankful for this time of year. As such, I share with you what we here at Petit Four Legs are thankful for:

1. You! We know the economy is rough right now and we are thankful that you've decided to part with a little of your hard-earned money to purchase some of our treats. We promise to always try to make sure that our treats exceed your expectations while also being incredibly yummy to the final treat-tasters!

2. Our extended Petit Four Legs family. All of us are healthy or, at the very least, on the mend. If any of you stopped by our booths this Fall in Las Vegas or Chicago, you may remember that I was on crutches thanks to a broken leg. As such, I relied more heavily then ever on our small staff who met the challenge without complaint. They worked weekends and late at night with me to make sure that all of our orders went out as scheduled. I shuddar to think what we would have done without their dedication and passion for what we're building here.

3. Our furry family. All of us have dogs (and a few cats!) who are the light of our lives and we are thankful, as always, that they continue to be healthy, happy, and - in some cases (Tyr and Murray in particular) - a handful of trouble!

We wish you and yours a very Happy Thanksgiving.

Frequently Asked Question

A question we've been getting a lot lately is where we buy the bone decorations we include with every order of our Cupcake Mix for Dogs. The secret is that we don't buy them.

Each of those bones, and the pink bones included in our year-round pink and brown Cupcake Mix boxes, is made by hand from dog-safe yogurt. For the seasonal variety, we first make the bones and then after they are dry we go back and paint them with FDA-approved food color to achieve the festive candy-cane strip effect. When you figure that each kit contains 18 bones it starts to add up quickly! It is a lot of work and we'd be lying if we said there weren't days that the thought of making more bones didn't drive us near crazy. But we know that you have come to expect that level of detail from Petit Four Legs and, at the end of the day, we want to be able to provide you with something that is not only different, but something that is truly special.
