The Subtle Secret of Brown Sugar

We know dogs don’t need large amounts of sugar, so we use only enough to serve its function—nothing more. By carefully measuring this ingredient, we maintain the nutritional integrity of our treats while still reaping the benefits of brown sugar’s binding power.

When crafting our WagRanch treats, we believe every ingredient serves a purpose—brown sugar included!

Though often overshadowed by flashier superfoods, this sweet staple helps us keep our treats soft, flavorful, and naturally bound together. Here’s how brown sugar works its quiet magic:

  1. A Natural Binding Agent
    Since we don’t use artificial casings to shape our treats, a touch of brown sugar is all we need to hold everything together in a soft, stick form. During the cooking process, the sugar melts and binds the ingredients—much like how an oatmeal cookie sets as it cools. This keeps our treats deliciously chewy and easy for pups to enjoy.
  2. Delicate Sweetness
    Brown sugar imparts a mild, rich sweetness without overwhelming your dog’s taste buds. It’s a subtle way to enhance the overall flavor profile, ensuring each treat is both tasty and enticing for even the pickiest of eaters.
  3. Mindful Use
    We know dogs don’t need large amounts of sugar, so we use only enough to serve its function—nothing more. By carefully measuring this ingredient, we maintain the nutritional integrity of our treats while still reaping the benefits of brown sugar’s binding power.

At WagRanch, every choice we make—from wholesome proteins to the smallest pinch of brown sugar—aims to create a treat that’s just as nutritious as it is delicious. Stay tuned for more insights into our ingredient lineup, and discover how each piece of the puzzle helps us keep tails wagging!
