Our company

Are you a Canadian company?

Yes. Nature’s Own Dog Chews is proudly Canadian-owned and operated, based in Toronto, Ontario. Since 2009 we’ve been dedicated to high-quality, all-natural dog chews that promote the health and well-being of dogs.

What makes your company unique?

We hold permits with international suppliers, so we can select and design chews with specific benefits, like omega fatty acids, glucosamine and chondroitin for joints, or dental support, at competitive prices.

What are your company’s values?

Natural farming practices, purpose-driven nutrition and continuous improvement. Every chew should satisfy your dog and contribute positively to their health.

Our products

How do I store Nature’s Own chews?

Store them in an airtight bag or container at room temperature (70–73°F), in a dry place away from direct sunlight. Don’t put a partly chewed piece back with fresh ones; keep it separate to avoid introducing moisture or impurities.

How are your products processed?

We keep additives to a minimum, and any we use are as natural as possible. All products comply with CFIA and USDA/FDA standards and are lab-tested before shipping to Canada, with no positive results for E. coli or Salmonella. Every chew is gently dried or baked to lock in natural flavour.

Are the chews safe for my dog?

As with any chew, supervise your dog, discard small end pieces that could be a choking hazard, and always keep fresh water available. Because our chews are natural, each one varies a little in colour, size and shape.

I’m a store owner. How can I carry your products?

Do you supply stores outside of Canada?

My local store doesn’t carry Nature’s Own. What can I do?

Ask the store owner to visit our website to see our full range. We’re happy to give them any information they need about our products and becoming a retailer.

Online orders

How much is shipping?

Shipping is free on orders of $100 or more (before taxes). Because of high costs, free shipping isn’t available to the Yukon, Northwest Territories and Nunavut. Otherwise, shipping is calculated at checkout. If rates to a region are excessive, we’ll let you know by email.

Where do you ship from, and where do you ship to?

All orders ship from our warehouse in Toronto, Ontario. At this time we only ship within Canada.

Which payment methods do you accept?

Visa, MasterCard and American Express.

What if I need to change my order?

Please contact us as soon as possible. We process orders quickly, but if yours hasn’t shipped we may be able to cancel it so you can place a new one.

What is your return policy?

We accept returns within 30 days of the order date. Items must be unused and in their original packaging, and you’ll need a return authorization (RMA) number. See our return policy.
