Carnivore Creations: Handmade Michigan Treats Your Pets Actually Deserve
Pat did not move to Ortonville and wait around to find her place in the community. She got to work.
Carnivore Creations is a small batch, handmade pet treat business built on a straightforward belief: dogs and cats are carnivores, and their treats should reflect that. No fillers. No preservatives. No additives. Just whole meats and real ingredients turned into snacks that pets go after like they mean it.
The lineup is more creative than you might expect from a treat business. Rehydrated kibble tips give pets a satisfying texture while keeping things wholesome. Protein packed snacks cover the everyday treat needs. Banana chip desserts bring something a little different to the bowl. And the pancake treats, which have become a customer favorite, are the kind of thing that earns a dog's undivided attention the moment the bag comes out. For the pet lovers themselves, Carnivore Creations also crafts custom keychain wristlets that let you carry a little piece of that passion wherever you go.
What comes through clearly when you look at how Pat runs this business is that she genuinely cares about the animals eating her products. Her feeding advice is practical and honest, always reminding pet owners to provide clean water alongside treats, and her approach to ingredients reflects someone who has thought carefully about what actually goes into an animal's body versus what most commercial treat makers are content to put on a label.
Ortonville has a small business that is solving a real problem for Michigan pet owners who want better options. Not bigger. Not flashier. Just better.
Carnivore Creations is the answer to the question every pet parent eventually asks: why is it so hard to find treats made from real food?
Turns out it is not hard at all. Pat just had to start making them.
