Pooch & Mutt treats
Pooch & Mutt is a UK brand that builds its treats and food ranges around specific everyday needs, such as joint support, skin and coat condition, or digestive health, rather than offering one general-purpose treat. We stock a selection from their treats range as part of our wider treats section.
Who Pooch & Mutt are
Pooch & Mutt's approach leans on functional ingredients — added glucosamine for joints, or specific fibres and prebiotics for digestion, for example — built into a treat rather than the ingredient being an afterthought on the label.
This positions the brand somewhere between an ordinary treat and a supplement, aimed at owners who want a reward that does a bit more than just taste good, without going as far as a dedicated medical-style supplement.
What the ingredients actually do
A joint-support treat typically includes glucosamine or a similar ingredient in a small, treat-sized amount, which is a genuinely useful top-up alongside a proper joint supplement or vet-prescribed treatment for a dog with a diagnosed problem, rather than a replacement for either.
Skin and digestive-support treats work on the same principle — a helpful daily ingredient in a treat-sized amount, useful as part of a broader approach rather than a standalone fix for an ongoing skin or digestive issue that needs a vet's attention.
What we stock, and who it suits
Our range includes a selection of Pooch & Mutt treats aimed at different everyday needs. We stock a selection from the wider Pooch & Mutt range rather than every product, and what is shown in the grid above is what is currently available to order.
This suits owners who want their dog's treats to serve a small extra purpose, particularly for an older dog with stiffening joints or a dog prone to a dull coat, rather than owners simply looking for the cheapest everyday treat on the shelf.
Using them alongside other care
A functional treat works best as a small daily addition rather than the main way of managing an ongoing condition. A dog with a diagnosed joint or skin problem still needs their vet's specific treatment plan, with a treat like this sitting alongside it rather than instead of it.
For a generally healthy dog, these treats are simply a reasonable everyday reward with a bit of extra thought behind the ingredients, and there is no need to overthink the choice beyond picking one that suits your dog's size and any obvious needs.

Common questions
- Do Pooch & Mutt treats actually help joints or skin?
- The ingredients used, such as glucosamine for joints, are genuinely functional in a general sense, though a treat-sized amount is a supportive top-up rather than a substitute for a proper supplement or vet-prescribed treatment for a diagnosed condition.
- Are Pooch & Mutt treats suitable for puppies?
- Check the specific product, since some functional treats are formulated with adult dogs in mind. A standard puppy treat without added joint or digestive ingredients is usually the safer everyday choice for a growing puppy unless your vet advises otherwise.
- Does Giddy Pets stock the full Pooch & Mutt range?
- No, we stock a selection of their treats rather than the whole range, which also includes complete foods and supplements. What is shown in the grid above reflects what we currently have available to order.
- Can I give a functional treat alongside a joint supplement?
- Generally yes, since a treat-sized amount of an ingredient like glucosamine is small compared with a dedicated supplement dose, but check with your vet if your dog is already on a specific supplement or medication for their joints.
