Treats that love your pets as much as you do.
Ernie's Bites are reinventing treats and meal toppers for your pet companions using authentic, locally sourced meat and freeze-drying their nutritional benefits.
The Freeze-Dried Difference
All of our pet food is locally sourced in Tasmania and freeze-dried while still raw. Perfect for a chewy treat or a juicy rehydrated meal topper!
| Air-Dried | Freeze-Dried |
|---|---|
| Gentle drying retains many nutrients but prolonged air exposure degrades some vitamins and enzymes. | Low-temperature sublimation preserves heat-sensitive vitamins, amino acids, enzymes, and omega-3s. |
| Air exposure during drying increases oxidation risk. | Vacuum and low temperatures limit oxidation and preserve fatty-acid profiles. |
| Some oxidative changes during drying reduce fat digestibility. | Raw fats remain structurally intact and less oxidized for superior digestibility. |
| Some enzyme loss occurs with extended drying. | Retains natural enzymes and delicate bioactive compounds. |
| Shelf-stable but typically shorter duration than freeze-dried. | Long shelf life without preservatives due to near-total moisture removal. |

See what some of our loyal customers have to say about why they choose our products:
Gracie was first introduced to Ernie's Bites at a market stall. Gracie was scratching and crying at their new sign trying to reach the delectable delights. Each morning after her brekkie and tablets she has her treat. If not given we get a paw slapped to the ground and continuous barking until treat is given. Gracie definitely gives them 5 stars!
Yay! My fur child Billy adores Ernie's Bites treats! Ive searched for ages trying to find some treats that are good for him. I want him to have a long life. My vet told me to stop giving him treats as she told me they werent full of junk and not good for him. No matter what treats l showed my vet the answer was the same until l found ernies bites and mu vet said they were very healthy so l went ahead and ordered them! I trust what a vet tells me and l also trust ernies bites. Billy adores the treats. So we are on a winner! Thank you so much!
Wow my fussy dog loves Ernies Bites! She would gobble the entire pack up if l let her. Knowing that Ernie Bites are really healthy and good for her is great as she has health issues so l'm really careful what l feed her. I dont buy any treats for her from the supermarkets as often they are not a healthy choice. It's so reasurring that not only does she love Ernie's Bites but they are so good for her. I highly recommend them - and so does my dog!
My dog had Ernie's Bites the other day and she went mad for them. Ive never seen anything like it! Looking at the ingrediants l know they are healthy for her not full of junk as some dog treats are. At last! You have a customer for life! Thank you Ernie's Bites!
Great stuff Ernie's Bites. Good for my dogs and they really enjoy them. I would recommend them to anyone!
