Baked for dogs. Kind to the planet.
Every batch of our biscuits starts with spent brewers grain — the nutrient-rich, toasty grain left over after local breweries finish their mash. It never touches alcohol (it’s rescued before fermentation even begins). We collect it fresh, then bake it with simple plant-forward ingredients like sweet potato, peanut butter and blueberries.
Our process.
We bake everything ourselves, in our own human-food bakery in Central Texas — same ovens, same food-safety standards as the snacks we make for people. Small batches. Simple ingredients. Nothing artificial.
Gentle by design: our biscuits are plant-forward and meat-free — an easy choice for dogs with sensitive stomachs and picky eaters.
Sustainable, always.
Our process rescues upcycled ingredients from local breweries and produces zero waste.
You and your dog can sleep well knowing they’re getting great nutrition while reducing their pawprint on the planet!
We’re proud to be a Public Benefit Corporation — and we’re bringing back fully-compostable packaging (our first compostable bags sealed poorly; better materials are in testing now).
Created by passionate pup-parents.
The Conscious Pet was founded by local Austinites with an equal passion for the environment and their furbabies.
Thinking about two problems – most dog treats aren’t great & good grain going to waste – this team got to work turning one into the other.

Jake is the PICKIEST of dog eaters on the planet and I can say hands down it's his favorite of all time.
Frequently Asked Questions
It’s the barley and grains breweries use to start a beer, collected right after the sweet liquid is drained off — before any fermentation happens, so it never contains alcohol. What’s left is a toasty, fiber- and protein-rich grain that’s perfectly good food. We rescue it fresh and bake it to the same standards as human snacks.
Our biscuits are plant-forward and meat-free — no chicken meat, no beef — and many of our customers have itchy, sensitive, or picky dogs. They do contain eggs and peanut butter, so for a dog with diagnosed allergies, check the full ingredient list with your vet.
In our own bakery in Central Texas — a certified human-food facility. We bake them ourselves; nothing is outsourced.
Vets recommend treats make up no more than about 10% of a dog’s daily calories. For most dogs that’s a few biscuits a day — our packs list feeding suggestions by size.
Not at the moment — and we’re not happy about it either. Our original compostable bags wouldn’t seal reliably, so we switched to conventional pouches while we test better materials. Getting back to fully-compostable packaging is actively in the works.
We retired the fresh-food line to focus on what we do best: oven-baked upcycled treats. If your dog was a DoggieBag fan, join the pack list — new products are coming.
