Homemade Treats for Your Dog

Quick & Easy Peanut Butter Treats / Puppy Leaks
Chicken Dog Treats / Kol’s Notes
Easy Two-Ingredient Dog Treats / Dog-Milk
Other great freebies for your pet
ASPCA Fill out the ASPCA’s online form to receive a free Pet Safety Pack, which includes pet rescue window decals for your home and an ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center Magnet.
Dunkin’ Donuts Select Dunkin’ Donut drive-thus keep dog treats on hand, so be sure to ask for one the next time you’re grabbing coffee with your dog in tow.
Bring Fido All you need to do to get this free dog stuff by mail is sign up for their newsletter, and they’ll send FREE samples out to you whenever they are on offer.
Your dog deserves a few treats now and then, and they always taste better if they’re free. As pet owners, it’s a good way to experiment and see which types of dog foods or dog treats your dog may or may not like before you spend money on them.
Also, if you are looking for a good deal on Purina brand dog food, you will want to check out this promotion from Tractor Supply.
Happy Birthday to your little furry Buddy! They deserve a special treat.

Dominique Cottom says
Please send one pound free coupon for birthday treats to my email address
Jen @ Inspiring Savings says
Hi Dominique, You will need to click link inside this post and register your pet to receive. Thank you 🙂
LaDonna M Icenogle says
Going in today to get my chi mixes a pound for there 1st birthday just wondering do you get to pick out the treats or are they pre selected?
Jen @ Inspiring Savings says
Hi Ladonna! You pick them out yourself from the pet treat bar. Have fun!!! You can mix and match.
Laura says
do you get these every year or just the first year? It is my dogs birthday today and we didn’t receive the email (2nd birthday) only the first year
Jen @ Inspiring Savings says
Every year you will receive Free treat for your dogs birthday. We usually get a coupon for one pound at the treat bar. It is a fantastic promotion.
Christy says
Tomorrow is my puppies first birthday and I was wondering if jet gree treats can be mailed since I’m homebound
Jen @ Inspiring Savings says
HI Christy, you will need to reach out to your individual store to inquire.
Estrella says
Today is my puppy birthday and they said they don’t do a 1 pound of treats for birthdays I was super sad
Jen @ Inspiring Savings says
They absolutely DO! I do this every year. You need to have registered your pup’s birthday online prior to his actual birthday. They will then send you a printed coupon to your email once a year for a free one pound bag of treats from the treat bar.
Melody Gladwell says
they no longer do this it seems
Jen @ Inspiring Savings says
Hi Melody,
That they do! It is upon registration that you link your pet’s information. Make sure you are registered and have your pet listed with birthday on your form. I actually just received our coupon 2 weeks ago for free biscuits with an additional 15% off coupon.
Jim McMillan says
You missed my pets first birthday!!! I add all my pets as instructed.., I have another 2 birthdays for my dogs in April wondereding if I’ll get any? the missed one is my dogs first birthday!!!
Jen @ Inspiring Savings says
Hi Jim, I am sorry to hear this. However, I am a blogger who reports the deals and savings. I do not work for Petco. You will need to reach out to them. Make sure you are registered and have your pet listed with birthday on your form. I actually just received our coupon 2 weeks ago for free biscuits with an additional 15% off coupon.
Jeff says
Please send a coupon for my doggie’s birthday so that he can receive his one pound of free treats. Thank you!
Jen @ Inspiring Savings says
HI Jeff, You need to sign up for a Petco account. Please follow the link in the post to complete that. Thanks

What do cats get for their birthday?
Jen @ Inspiring Savings says
That is a GREAT thought! I am not sure. I only know what the pups get because I own a dog. Please come back and let us know what your kitty gets for their birthday. I would love to know.
Rose says
I don’t believe cats recieve anything for their birthday. Petco usually sends the coupon weeks before the actual birthday( my dog’s birthday is Feb 06 and they sent me the email Jan 19.) My cat’s birthday is March 01 and they have yet to send me any coupons; however I assume it might just be too early since last year for my male betta’s birthday they sent me a coupon for $5 on a decoration/accesory,( I believe. But for sure received an email for his birthday and picked up his present, cause even the cashier was shocked they offer birthday presents for fishes). It would be strange to give a fish a gift and not a cat. If i do receive a coupon for my cat I will be sure to reply back and send a verification on if they still give fishes (specifically bettas) gifts on their birthday too)
Jen @ Inspiring Savings says
Thank you Rose! I personally wasn’t sure about cats as we are dog owners. I am also very surprised that they sent a coupon for your fish. That is actually pretty cool. Strange though nothing was sent for your kitty
Rose says
Petco does send a coupon for free treats (up to $4) on your cat’s birthday. Also, Friendly reminder that Petsmart (~$3 on Authority brand treats) and Pets Supplies Plus ($5 on a toy) also offer free gifts on your pets special day.
Rose says
I should clarify that the cat treats are not from the treat bar but the the packaged branded treats located in the aisles.
Jen @ Inspiring Savings says
Hi Rose,
It must be different for your location. You see, I just received a coupon for the treat bar for my little guy. His birthday is in 2 weeks. He turns 13 this year 🙂
Rose says
I should also mention that in order to get these promotion done from the stores you must make an account and create profiles for your pet(s) at their websites. Also, it is my understanding that these profiles must be made months before the pets actual birthday. No gift will be sent if the the profile was made a few days/weeks before the date.
Jen @ Inspiring Savings says
Correct!
Kaitlyn says
Hello,
You may want to update this as I reached out to Petco to see why I have not received the birthday treat email and they advised they suspended this in December 2021. I confirmed they offer no birthday rewards until further notice.
Jen @ Inspiring Savings says
Thank you, Kaitlyn, for this updated information!!
