Created by a vet, for vets
Courage Treats were invented in a working clinic by a vet who needed a better way to calm and connect with nervous dogs. These aren’t just treats, they’re tools designed with firsthand insight into real exam room challenges.
Designed for One-Handed Use
No crumbling, no fiddling. VetSticks are soft, pliable, and long enough to hold while examining or distracting. Break off pieces as needed, or let the dog nibble while you work—ideal for solo or small-team handling.
Clean Ingredients, Confident Care
Formulated with a chickpea base and limited preservatives, VetSticks offer a protein-packed, gentle-on-the-gut option that even senior dogs with dental issues can enjoy. Every stick is free of fillers, weird meats, and mystery powders.
Builds Trust (Fast)
Courage Treats help shift the tone from fear to cooperation, fast. Dogs learn that the clinic is a place of reward, not restraint. Whether it’s the first visit or the fiftieth, VetSticks help create repeatable, positive outcomes.
