OUR STORY

About Farmer Pete’s Natural Pet Treats

Farmer Pete’s is a family-owned and operated Australian business based in Eungai Creek on the Mid North Coast of New South Wales.

We help pet owners find good pet treats made from simple, recognisable ingredients. We make, pack and send natural treats for dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, ferrets and rats across Australia.

Our range includes dehydrated meat treats, natural dog chews, training rewards, meal toppers, dried fruit and vegetables, homemade treats and pet gift boxes.

Every order receives the same personal care that helped Farmer Pete’s grow from a small hobby farm into an established Australian pet treat business.

How Farmer Pete’s Began

Farmer Pete’s started with a simple idea: pets deserve treats made from real, recognisable ingredients.

As pet owners and animal lovers, our founding family wanted natural treats for their own animals. They found that many mass-produced pet treats contained preservatives, artificial colours, added flavours, fillers and long ingredient lists. Natural alternatives could also be difficult to find or expensive to buy regularly.

They knew there had to be a better option.

The family began making pet treats on their hobby farm in Eungai Creek using fresh meat, fruit and vegetables sourced from Australian producers and suppliers. What started as a way to care for their own pets soon became a way to help pet owners across Australia make better-informed choices.

That is how Farmer Pete’s was born.

OUR TEAM

Meet the Farmer Pete’s Family

Farmer Pete’s was founded by Peter, Leanne, Michael and Tori, who shared a passion for providing pets with natural treats made from simple, recognisable ingredients.

Together, we built Farmer Pete’s from a small hobby farm in Eungai Creek into the Australian family business it is today. From preparing treats and packing orders to helping customers choose the right products for their pets, we’ve always taken a hands-on approach.

In February 2026, our family sadly lost Peter, who many of our customers knew as Farmer Pete. While we miss him dearly, Leanne, Michael and Tori continue to run Farmer Pete’s with the same care, quality and passion that have been part of the business since it began.

Although Farmer Pete’s has grown over the years, we’ve stayed true to the personal service and family values that shaped the business from the very beginning. Every order is still prepared and packed with the same attention to detail and genuine care for pets and their owners.

We value every person who chooses to support our Australian family business. Whether you’re placing your first order or regularly filling the treat cupboard, thank you for being part of our journey.

Thank you for supporting our Australian family-owned business.

Natural Pet Treats Made in Australia

Farmer Pete’s specialises in natural, dehydrated pet treats made and packed in Australia.

We gently dehydrate our treats to remove moisture while retaining their natural flavour, aroma and texture. This process allows us to create tasty, shelf-stable treats without relying on unnecessary artificial preservatives.

Our range includes treats made from Australian kangaroo, beef, chicken, lamb, pork, emu, crocodile and seafood. We also make dried fruit and vegetable treats for rabbits, guinea pigs and other small animals.

From everyday rewards and dog training treats to meal toppers and long-lasting chews, we give pet owners plenty of natural options to choose from.

What Makes a Good Pet Treat?

We believe good pet treats start with ingredients that owners can recognise and understand.

A good treat should clearly state what it contains, where its main ingredients come from and which animals it may suit. It should also provide honest feeding information, including guidance about serving size, supervision and chewing suitability.

When choosing treats for your pet, look for:

  • Simple and clearly listed ingredients
  • Quality meat, fruit or vegetables
  • No unnecessary artificial colours or flavours
  • No hidden fillers or binders
  • A suitable size and texture for your pet
  • Clear nutritional and feeding information
  • Appropriate guidance for treats, bones and chews
  • Transparent information about where the product is made

The right treat will also depend on your pet. A small training reward may suit one dog, while another may need a longer-lasting chew. Senior pets, puppies and animals with allergies or dietary sensitivities may require a different option.

Farmer Pete’s makes a broad range of natural Australian pet treats for different animals, sizes and purposes. Many of our dehydrated meat treats contain a single recognisable ingredient, making it easier to understand exactly what you are giving your pet.

We clearly explain the ingredients, nutritional information, suggested uses and safety guidance on our product pages. This helps pet owners compare the available options and choose good pet treats with confidence.

Simple Ingredients With Nothing Hidden

We believe pet owners should know what they are feeding their animals.

Many of our dehydrated meat treats contain one recognisable ingredient, such as Australian kangaroo, beef, chicken or lamb. Other treats combine a small number of carefully selected ingredients for a particular flavour, texture or purpose.

We clearly list the ingredients, nutritional information, suggested uses and feeding guidance on our individual product pages.

Across our natural pet treat range, we focus on avoiding unnecessary ingredients such as:

  • Artificial preservatives
  • Artificial colours
  • Added flavours
  • Unnecessary fillers
  • Binders
  • Added sugars and salts

Ingredients can vary between products and recipes. Please check the ingredient list on the relevant product page if your pet has allergies, sensitivities or specific dietary requirements.

Supporting Australian Producers and Reducing Waste

Farmer Pete’s proudly supports Australian farmers, producers, processors and suppliers.

We source quality meat, fruit and vegetables as locally as practical. We also use suitable by-products from the human food supply chain that may otherwise go to waste.

Using more of each animal supports a practical nose-to-tail approach. It helps reduce waste while giving pets access to parts such as liver, heart, tendons, cartilage, skin and bone.

This approach supports Australian agriculture, reduces unnecessary waste and allows us to produce a varied range of natural pet treats.

Made, Packed and Posted With Care

Farmer Pete’s remains a hands-on family business.

Leanne, Michael and Tori continue to prepare treats, check their quality, pack customer orders and send them from Eungai Creek. Keeping these parts of the process close allows the team to maintain a personal connection with the products and customers.

We are not interested in filling bags with cheap ingredients or hiding behind unclear labels. We want customers to understand what each treat contains, where it comes from and which pets it may suit.

If we would not feel comfortable giving a treat to our own animals, it does not belong in the Farmer Pete’s range.

Treats for Dogs, Cats and Small Animals

Although natural dog treats form a large part of our range, Farmer Pete’s makes treats for animals of many shapes and sizes.

Our online range includes:

  • Natural dog and cat treats
  • Single-ingredient meat treats
  • Dog training treats
  • Natural dental chews
  • Long-lasting dog chews and bones
  • Australian kangaroo treats
  • Beef, chicken, lamb and pork treats
  • Fish and seafood treats
  • Meal toppers
  • Cat treats
  • Rabbit and guinea pig treats
  • Dried fruit and vegetable treats
  • Homemade biscuit treats
  • Pet enrichment products
  • Pet treat bundles and gift boxes

We provide clear product information to help you choose a treat based on your pet’s size, age, dietary needs and chewing style.

Pets should always be supervised while eating treats, bones and chews. Introduce new foods gradually and speak with your veterinarian if your pet has a medical condition or prescribed diet.
