At Shameless we create a delicious product out ingredients that would have otherwise been wasted—that's called Upcycling! Imagine a farmer’s leftover pumpkins after Halloween, apple pulp from a cider press, or lobster shells that would normally get tossed in the landfill. In the case of our treats, this unused food becomes an ingredient that is highly nutritious and ridiculously tasty. Food is wasted every step along the way from the field to consumption — agricultural production, post harvest, processing, distribution to consumption. Shameless Pets focuses on rescuing ingredients from agricultural production, post harvest leftovers, and food processing. Fruits, vegetables, and dairy are the greatest contributors to food waste and where we focus our efforts. In addition to wasting nutritious calories, food waste contributes to throwing away precious resources such as water, land, energy, and labor. It also contributes to greenhouse gas emissions and global warming. Reducing food waste can be a huge benefit to our ecosystem! Every 6 bags of Shameless Pets dog treats saves 1lb of food from going to waste! SAFETY + NUTRITION = OUR TOP PRIORITIES Every ingredient is carefully selected to provide the utmost nutrition while prioritizing the plant's sustainability. Our team is passionate about make sure we feed our pets well. We use only the highest quality ingredients and work with certified manufacturers. We create pet treats that are delicious and safe for those who demand the best for their pets. Grains, preservatives, artificial colors, and artificial flavors have no place in our products, and are never used.
