Butcher’s Bounty Featured After Winning Best Pet Food in the South Bend Area

We’re incredibly honored to share that Butcher’s Bounty Pet Treats was recently featured by Insider Weekly after being recognized as Best Pet Food in the South Bend area during our first full year of operation. The article highlights our growth since launching in September 2024, our focus on single-ingredient freeze-dried pet treats, and how a one-person operation from Mishawaka has grown to serve customers across the United States.

For us, this recognition means a lot. Butcher’s Bounty started with a simple goal: make high-quality treats for dogs and cats using ingredients pet parents can actually understand. That means no fillers, no junk, and no confusing ingredient lists—just simple, protein-packed treats made with care. Insider Weekly specifically pointed to our commitment to single-ingredient treats as one of the things that helps us stand out in a crowded market.

The article also touched on something that has been important to us from day one: staying rooted in the local community while continuing to grow beyond it. We’re proud to be based in Mishawaka, Indiana, and just as proud to be reaching customers well outside our local area through our website and online storefronts. According to the feature, Butcher’s Bounty has grown from local deliveries to shipping treats across the country, even reaching customers in Alaska.

Another thing the article highlighted is our approach to growth. We’ve never wanted to become some giant faceless pet brand. Our goal has always been to grow carefully, keep quality high, and continue offering treats that pet owners can feel good about giving to their dogs and cats. Insider Weekly described that as “controlled growth,” and that really does fit how we think about the future.

If you’ve supported Butcher’s Bounty by placing an order, telling a friend, stopping by our booth at an event, or following along online, thank you. This recognition would not have happened without you. Every order, every review, and every share has helped us build something special.

We’re excited for what’s next, and we’re even more motivated to keep bringing you affordable, high-quality freeze-dried pet treats made with simple ingredients and a lot of heart.
