Three Dog Bakery: Indy’s unique doggy deli!
If you’ve ever needed an excuse to pamper your pooch, there is no better way than taking Fido to Indy’s gourmet bakery for dogs. The Three Dog Bakery is simply a delight for canine and human companion alike. One foot through the door and you and your loyal quadruped will be tantalized by the sweet aroma of yummy cookies. It’s difficult to remember that none of the goodies are for human consumption!
The most striking feature of the Three Dog Bakery is at the back of this downtown Indianapolis store. Follow your dog’s nose up to the gleaming glass-covered counter displaying a remarkable range of gourmet treats. All of the Pooch Pastries are made with natural ingredients and are available for puppies and adult dogs, with reduced calorie formula foods for those weight-watching pups.
Owners Scott and Stacey Petcu highly recommend the Peanut Butter Cookies, which are packed with 100 percent peanuts and contain no additional sweeteners or preservatives. Alternative treats include the Bulldog Bar, Collie Connoli or the Smores.
Three Dog Bakery fully outlines its extensive list of delicious doggie products with a full list of ingredients used, including eggs, honey, whole wheat flour and oatmeal. Sage is also used in many of the products, as this herb stimulates a dog’s appetite.
While your dog gets acquainted with the friendly staff by sampling free treats, take time to look around at the accessories. A wide variety of general pet items is available, including collars and leashes, dog bowls, coat care products, dog beds and toys.
If you don’t have a dog of your own, borrow someone else’s and take a trip to one of the other Indianapolis stores in Broad Ripple and Hamilton Town Center.
