About Polkadog

Polkadog was founded in 2002 to make treats for a beloved, one-eyed rescue dog, Pearl. She was a part of the family and the family wanted her to have the best treats possible. That meant finding the finest ingredients around and adding a little bit of love into every bite. You feel the same way about your pets, so we still make every treat like we did back then: for family. Polkadog packages all of their treats at our Boston Fish Pier kitchen. The company works with local artists to develop our packaging. Local stores include Cranston, Canton, Chestnut Hill, Dedham, Hingham, Lynnfield, Jamacia Plain, Newbury Street, North End, Seaport, and the  South End.
