PB190186This month’s spot­light is Molly Miller, cre­ator of Peta­bles treats and accessories.

Molly is an artist, a baker, an ani­mal lover, a wife and a mother of many ani­mal babies.  Her ani­mals include a dog named Isosce­les, a long haired cat named Draco, a Quaker Par­rot named Par­chofi, and Phthalo Blue, her fuzzy lop bunny who was named after the color of a tube of paint that was acci­den­tally splat­tered on him when he was a baby.

Molly worked for a vet­eri­nar­ian in Belle­vue for many years.  She later attended the North­west Col­lege of Arts in Poulsbo, WA where she received her BFA with a dou­ble major in fine arts and graphic design.  She is able to ful­fill her cre­ativ­ity in her cozy Sno­qualmie home by mak­ing yummy dog bis­cuits and a unique line of dog and cat accessories.

Molly’s idea for start­ing Peta­bles was because of a friend’s finicky dog that wouldn’t eat any dog treats yet she would always beg and steal the human treats.  Molly researched ingre­di­ents that are safe, healthy and deli­cious for dogs and made her friend’s dog her own “human style” treats.  One sniff and they were gone!  At that point she started to exper­i­ment with all kinds of ingre­di­ents and made a ton of treats.

Every bag of treats are hand­made, in her very own kitchen.  Peta­bles bis­cuits are uniquely made and pack­aged with only human grade ingre­di­ents and she gives each unique fla­vor a very clever name.  One of her and her husband’s favorite (oh, and Isosce­les too, of course) is Whim­per, a light crisp chip with a sprin­kling of cheese.  In fact this one is such a favorite in her house that her bunny, par­rot, and cat all love Whim­per too!  Some of Molly’s other yummy treats are Beg– a soft del­i­cate cookie, Slob­ber– a home-made gra­ham cracker, Nip– tiny vanilla stars, and many oth­ers like Bark, Chomp, Sniff, Wag, Tail, Stick, Roll, Paw, Lick, Chase, and Woof.  From aller­gies to veg­e­tar­ian, Molly has found a bis­cuit for almost every dog.  And she still con­tin­ues to come up with new and excit­ing treats to cover all the dif­fer­ent needs of so many unique dogs.  Since then, she has added so much more to Peta­bles, includ­ing a unique line of dog and cat acces­sories, from per­son­al­ized cir­cuit board dog tags to ani­mal shaped dog waste bag hold­ers.  Her cre­ativ­ity never stops and she loves focus­ing this cre­ativ­ity on what she loves best… the ANIMALS!
