SCHMACKOS Sausage Sizzle STIX will be part of Mars Petcare’s existing pet range at Bunnings which includes PEDIGREE®, WHISKAS® and OPTIMUM®.
Australian-made by Mars Petcare Australia in Bathurst, SCHMACKOS™ Sausage Sizzle STIX offer dogs a savoury delight made with real meat and free from artificial flavours.
“This innovative treat promises a delicious taste experience and allows every member of the family, including our furry friends, to delight in the shared experience of a sausage sizzle,” according to the brand.
Mars Petcare Australia Marketing Director Anthony Dean says, “As one third of all dog feeding occasions are treat related, we clearly love to treat our dogs and we naturally want the best for them. At Mars Petcare, we are proud to offer a range of treats crafted with real Australian ingredients.
“We know there is increasing popularity in the dog care and treat category and it’s important for us to create new offerings where enjoyment can be shared with our furry companions.”
