If there is one thing I have learned as a dog mom, it is that life is a journey. Every single day for my dogs is a new adventure that has to be greeted with an excited smile. Personally, I think one of my (most enjoyable) responsibilities as their adopted mom is making sure I give them as many fun experiences as possible. That is why with the weather being so beautiful, I decided it was time we had a fun fall adventure, especially since I learned there was a little nature preserve not far from our house! Of course, there was only one option to us – pack some wholesome, all natural dog treats, and get the girls in the SUV for an afternoon of fun filled adventure!
Of course, as the proud dog mom I am, I couldn’t miss the chance of getting some adorable pictures and video. Honestly, the moment we opened the SUV and I saw their excited faces, I knew this was going to be a day filled with absolute, pure adventure. Normally, we go to a park first ourselves to see if it is worth it, but we decided to take the risk and let the girls enjoy the full experience with us!
Probably the biggest shock to me was the fact that it really was a true trail. Once you left the small parking lot, we were practically in the forest. Every trail was either a well worn dirt path or covered with gravel, allowing nature to truly run wild in the gorgeous park. Rylie, of course, couldn’t wait to take the lead and sniff everything. Ivi cautiously looked after her little sister, guiding her away from anything she thought smelled funny, but happy to explore herself. All of us were in awe of the gorgeous park, but nothing beats the pure joy of watching the girls explore.
Part of what makes these sorts of adventures so precious to me is seeing them experience something new. To us, the best part was their reaction when they found a little stream. Sure, there was a creek to watch, but it wasn’t as fun as seeing a tiny stream they could actually pounce and play in themselves. I mean, how can you NOT smile seeing your dog pounce in water and try jumping on stepping stones? Moments like that remind me just how precious our girls are – they remind you of the small joys in life that make every day special and help you find them!
So what was the girls’ favorite part of the trip? Treat time, of course! In a little clearing spot, I decided it was time for a little water and treat break with True Chews® Dog Treats! Never heard of True Chews? These all natural dog treats are made in the USA and made using only natural ingredients. You will never find artificial flavors, artificial preservatives, or meat by-products in any of their treats. As a matter of fact, all of their treats are made using premium cuts of meat that are sourced in the United States, and they are proud that this meat is the first ingredient of all of their treats. As a cautious dog mom, I am happy to have to have a premium dog treat option that is easy to find at any pet store, and affordable.
Of course, the best part of Ture Chews Dog Treats is the fact that they drive the girls absolutely wild! To me, giving them a 100% all natural treat that they love is another way to say I love you, especially to two food motivated Alaskan Malamutes! Would you like to try True Chews for yourself? You can find True Chews at a pet retailer near you, including PetSmart, Petco, Chewy.com, and your local pet boutique.

My dogs would love to try the True Chews. They love trying new treats
the thought comes to mind who is manipulating whom with the doggy treats? are the dogs manipulating the owner or vice versa? do dogs really experience anything or are they all pretty much the same. they will do whatever with whomever for food.
Oh, our dogs know they manipulate. The entire cute attack if they think it will get them pets (or food). They also know who will give them the food they desire without much effort. haha!
Ivy and Rylie look like they really enjoy getting to explore in some beautiful fall weather. Those treats look amazing, almost like pumpkin cookies!
I bet they loved those yummy treats! I don’t have a dog at this time, but I would enjoy taking them beautiful places like this if I did.
I love going on walks with my dog! I bet he would love these chews too!
First of al Ivy and Rylie are BEAUTIFUL dogs. I had a German Shepard Husky mix and she was so pretty. My two fur babies would love a nice hike, although, the little one would be covered in leaves and twigs by the time we were done! And the chews look like something they would love. Wait, they love all things treats! 🙂
What beautiful dogs! It looks like a wonderful trail…and you picked the perfect day weather-wise. It’s always important to pack snacks for a day out!
I bet our dog would love the treats. The hiking adventure looked like a lot of fun!
Those look like great snack chews. You have the cuties doggies…..so adorable. WOOF
I want to take my dog to one of the trails around here, He loves car rides and having little adventures.
I forgot that this post was about dog chews. I was too busy admiring the dogs.
In TX we seem to from summer straight to winter with very little fall in between. I have 4 dogs so we don’t venture out past our own backyard but when we get snow they all have blast running nose first throughout our yard
I know that feeling all too well! We have snow today here in Kentucky. x_X
These look like items that I know that my sister’s dog would love. He would also love to go walking and walking on an adventure such as pictured.
We don’t have a dog anymore but we do have a “grand” dog. She goes for short walks with us on occasion. My wife and I love to walk nature trails in our area.
Sounds like a fun filled day for all. Have you ever played hide and seek with them in area like this. I used to do that my Shepard and he so enjoyed it.
They are beautiful dogs, we are lucky to have a 24 acre farm near our house that’s fenced in and has lots of trails and you can take your dogs off leash. We are getting a new puppy on December 9th he is just over a week old now and I am interested in the best dog treats for him.
Your dogs are beautiful! The dog treats look great, too. I bet my Archie will want to try these 🙂
Your dogs are so beautiful. Hiking is my all time favorte activity. You def have happy pups.
Those treats look amazing, my dog would like to try the True Chews.
my dog loves to go for hikes and he loves treats especially when the weather gets cooler and we both can enjoy the experience .
These look like great quality treats. I’m always on the look for something special for my dog.
My dog loves the outdoors and all the adventures we have been on. He would love those treats!
I love taking my dogs hiking. I have a sort of back holster for Sammi though because ashe just poops out and I have to carry her.
I nearly go into hibernation mode when it turns cold, LOL. But, one of my dogs loves the cooler temps. I think I will try to give him more walks.
We love taking our dogs on hikes! It’s funny how even a walk around the neighborhood is an adventure for them, but it’s extra full when we go somewhere new with all the good smells! 🙂
Our boy Bailey would love being outdoors for the walks and he
would love the treats. He loves to take longs walks and they are
good for both of us.
Your dogs are so pretty! I would love to take my dogs out hiking, and I think they would love it. However, there aren’t really any dog friendly options nearby.
Looks like a nice day of hiking, my two dogs would love those treats!
My mom has a german shepard who just loves to be outside. I always make a xmas stocking just for Zoey and these treats would be awesome to include in that. Chicken pot pie flavor, wow!
Im looking forward to hiking with our pup. She needs to get better with obedience first but someday!
Beautiful dogs! We have a local rails to trails where we can walk our dogs~
True Chew dog treats look yummy. My dogs would probably love them and a nice stroll through the woods or a nature walk.
Looks like the perfect fall day. Love your dogs!
Ivi & Rylie have grown up so much. They’re beautiful girls. Dot loved the True Chews Chicken Pot Pie too. These worked great breaking into pieces and working to train her.
I would love to try the True Chews for my little Chihuahua, Ice. They look awesome! Ice would love a hike in the woods
Your dogs are beautiful! I don’t have dogs myself but those look like tasty treats.
I love hiking in the Fall. We have fun exploring wherever there is great foliage.
I love taking my dog for a walk especially in the Fall when it’s cooler. I’m sure my dog would love these treats too.
I love fall hiking with my pups. It’s just such a nice way to spend a day (Those fur babies look like they are having a great time)
I haven’t been hiking in a very long time, used to love it when I had someone to hike with plus the trail near my home is all grown up now and home to deer and snakes. Enjoyed your article and your dogs are absolutely beautiful.
Hiking in the foothills is always fun in the fall when the weather is cooler!
Those look like nice treats. My pup would love them. We are enjoying the cooler weather.
Your dogs are beautiful! I haven’t heard of True Chews yet, but I know a few people who might be interested in getting some for their dogs.
The scenery looks beautiful. I have been inside a lot this summer in the arizona heat, so I am looking forward to getting back outside. Spending time in nature is so important.
Beautiful doggies! We are avid hikers and always looking for new trails with our pups. We have 2 Australian Shepherds who have tons of energy to burn as well!
I’d love to give some of those chews to my dog. He’s really “chewsy” & I’m sure those are up to his standards!
Ivy and Rylie look like they are having a blast. What a beautiful place to hike and work up an appetite.
What beautiful dogs! I bet they did love going out on the trail. Exciting and new adventures…yay! I couldn’t help but to laugh when I read about the stream. Dogs are just too funny! They definitely worked up to treat time. 😉 Hehehe!!!
It sounds like y’all have a new place to visit more with the girls.
The dogs are beautiful. I know they love it in the woodsy area they really get their wolf on huh ?
We are lucky we have a lot of wonderful off-leash areas along the river
Your dogs are beautiful. We’re moving to Toronto next summer and I’ve been reading about all the dog parks and dog-friendly beaches and other places. We’ll be getting a golden retriever after we’re settled and I can’t wait to have fantastic adventures like this!
This was such a joy to read, I so enjoy visiting your page to see whats new with your dogs.
@tisonlyem143
These treats look healthy and good for any dog especially mine. He loves having treats after a long walk or hiking. These would be perfect. Thanks for sharing.
I like knowing that the first ingredient is m eat. I also appreciate they are sourced in the US.
I’d love to let my dogs try these!
This looks like such a fun day! I need to tell my sister about these treats for her doggies!! I love the fact that they are natural too 🙂
I really like that the premium cuts of meat with True Chews is sourced in the United States. I like the different trails that the dogs take with their dog mom.
What absolutely gorgeous dogs! I did some fall hiking myself two weeks ago on Mackinac Island. Colors weren’t at peak but so beautiful.
My dog would love these treats. She isn’t much of a hiker, she prefers lounging on the couch!
This looks like lots of fun. My dog loves to go on hikes with us, even as he is approaching 17!
This looks like you had a blast with your bff
I love hiking adventures. It looks like a lot of fun.
I always like to see pictures of Ivi and Rylie; they’re both beautiful! Flad they enjoyed the hike!
Nothing better than a fall walk with the dogs!
Sounds like a fun filled day for all. Have you ever played hide and seek with them in area like this. I used to do that my Shepard and he so enjoyed it.
You have beautiful fur babies. We do not have a pet but we sure love those Fall Bush Trail walks. We went on one with our oldest son just recently … before it snowed. :O The first thing we all noticed as soon as we stepped on the trail was pure calmness. I love being in the bush … more so in the fall, because there are no flies and bugs. Bush Trail Walks are my most favorite thing to do.
My husband is trying to convince me to get a dog. I think your post might have just made me want one as well! Your dogs are sooo cute!
Alaskan malamutes are adorable. And I love when people go hiking deep in the woods and post a lot of pictures.
Planning to do a lot of hiking in Costa Rica in the next few weeks. The national parks there are simply stunning!
These look like something my Rocky would love. Your dogs are very cute.
My boy want to try some
I will have to try my friend Sandy about True Chews because she has a dog. I do not have a dog, but I expect the dogs would love these fun treats. Thanks.
I love to hike with my dogs. The beagle wears out quickly while the lab mix can go forever. They both like the streams to cool off in and back to walking we go. They never want to snack along the way for some reason though.
Looks like a fun adventure.
Your dogs are beautiful. My boys look forward to their daily walk in the woods — it’s their favorite time of the day. Lots of running, sniffing, peeing and playing — we have a great time!
It is some of the best time! I am glad I finally found somewhere so close!
Your pups are adorable! None of my dogs like to go hiking with me, but we’re working on it!
Hiking and outdoor life doesn’t need to stop with fall. Dogs love catching snowflakes in their mouths and scampering in the new fallen snow as much as kids. Taking pictures of these special times make great memories. Thanks for sharing their fall fun.
We own a remote farm with terrain much like this nature area. Our extended family includes 3 english springer spaniels who love nothing better than to run exploring and finish with a yummy bag of treats. One bag GONE! Next time for fall leaf hunting, we’ll treat them with your featured treats. Everybody bark!
Aw, they look so so happy!! I feel the same when Im out fall hiking <3 My life is in the woods and I just adore it!! Plus the leaves are A-mazing!
Oh wow that place looks beautiful if I had a dog I would love to take them to a place like that
Your dog is gorgeous!
Those are beautiful dogs and it looks like a lot of fun. I don’t have any dogs right now but will eventually get at least one since I now own my first home.
Those treats look like cookies! Sounds like your dogs had a great time. Your surroundings are beautiful.
I love Husky dogs. They are highly intelligent and very protective not to mention absolutely gorgeous.
I look forward to taking our new rescue dog out on excursions like this. Thanks for sharing about the treat. Our dog too is very food motivated, I will have to check out the treats.
I don’t have any dogs so I don’t know much about dog food/treats. In the picture the bag says it’s chicken pot pie flavor, but the treat itself looks like a pumpkin pie flavored cookie.
I love hiking, I need to make it more of a priority!
It’s fun going for long walks with our dog. The whole family enjoys the time out.
I’d love to walk in that setting too! Your dogs must be in Heaven! 🙂
My doxies would love these so I will definitely be checking into these. Our dogs enjoy their walks and love to go everywhere with us. I love your pictures, your dogs are too cute.
What sweet doggies!! I bet that was a fun post for everyone involved. 🙂
Love your babies. They are beautiful.
Your dogs are beautiful! My labradoodle loves going on adventures, too. I’ll have to try these treats for her.
I love the colorful autumn leaves. Fall is a great season to take a hike or a walk. It looks like you had fun!
That looks like a nice place to talk a long walk with your fav dog! And if you’re going to bring snacks for yourself you need to bring snack for your faithful dog friend! These look like a great treat – all natural!
Mishelle
What gorgeous dogs! They look like they’re having a blast too. I have 2 elderly corgis who are not much of outdoors dogs.
What beautiful dogs. I love feeding my dog all natural products. I enjoy taking my dog on beautiful walks.
Your girls have gotten big. They seemed to really have enjoyed their hiking trip.
Such cute dogs! My dog is also food-motivated and – although she is settling into her golden years – those treats look like they could make her get up and go! They look really yummy.
They look so happy. My dog loves walking the paths through the woods near our home.
The pictures kept distracting me. Such beautiful dogs! 😉
I have no concrete plans yet. But walks in the park are a given of course.
So adorable! We love to go on hikes with our girls as well. Great pics!
Awe! I love how your dogs had such a great time on the hike. I used to love hiking with my dogs. Real trails are the absolute best and these treats sound incredible. I’ll have to pick some up for my puppy nephew. I adore him and take him on loads of walks through our neighbourhood. I love how they are natural.
fall hiking is the best..and easier on our pets.
we have a tradition to hike with the family after our big thanksgiving feast.
I’ve never heard of True Chews. Sounds like a great, healthy treat to give my furry babies. I’ll look for them the next time I’m in the store.
Those treats look delicous. I think my furry friend would love them This is the first time hearing about this brand
What a fun time that looks like…and of course ending it with treats was probably the best! Unfortunately we lost our Ozzy to cancer this past spring, but he always loved new adventures and getting out into nature!
The pups are super cute. We like hiking too.
Fall hiking is the best. My dog and I love to hike.
Your dogs are beautiful. True Chews some good. My dog loves certain traets and she can’t bother with others. I’m going to try these as there are so many more benefits then some of the “junk” treats out there.
There is just something awesome about hiking in cooler weather. Hiking with dogs are the best and these treats look delicious.
Your dogs are beautiful! I love hiking!
Looks like a great time was had by all. Roxi loves going off on hikes with her Mom. I haven’t met my other fur granddog, but they are moving back to NJ in December so I am sure we will have lots of fun together! There are a lot of great trails around here!
My dogs love to go on the trails and discovering new things. It also gets me out of the house and keeps me active. These look like a great thing to take along for my dogs that is convenient for in between meals.
Beautiful malamutes – they’re made for hiking haha. Natural treats are also hard to find True Chews looks like they’re a treat in more ways than one
Your dogs are beautiful! Our Maggie girl loves walking in the woods too. I’m def going to check out these treats!
What pretty dogs..My dog loves hiking also he tires me out some days. True Chews sound like a great treat and I am sure my dog would love them.
Those are really pretty dogs. The area that the photo was taken at is nice.
My poor little dachshund does not like long walks. She will usually make it about once around the track, but by then she’s so tired she just wants to go home and cuddle.
I love the dogs it looks like lots of fun. I love hiking with my children , they always get super dirty. But as long as they are having fun,
I’d love to try these on our dogs. We always are looking for new natural treats.
We like to take our 2 dogs walking around our neighborhood. They enjoy the exercise and so do I.
That looks like a beautiful place to hike. It looks like the dogs enjoyed it(and their treat) too.
I love the photos. Your dogs are beautiful. I’d love to have a dog again but with long working hours and living in an upstairs apartment it just wouldn’t be fair to them.
I’ll have to keep my eye out for True Chews, my spoiled brat is very picky with treats so I’m always on the lookout for something new.
My daughter is a senior and we had her senior pictures taken at a nearby lake with trails and creeks. We took our middle bulldog (we have three), since he is basically her dog and they are inseparable and knew that would come through in the pics of them together. He loved it! He is a homebody and hates being away from home but the trails and new sites were just what he needed. I will definitely be remembering True Chews for the next trip!
What beautiful dogs! I have not heard of True Chews but will seek them out for my fur babies to try.
What lucky and happy dogs! Taking them on an outdoor adventure with you is great for their minds and over all health. We have many hiking trails where I live. Even when it rains, my dog is always excited to go explore nature. When she is happy and healthy, I know I am doing a good job. I. I will look up True Chews.
Thanks!
We love to go on walks with our dogs! This year we’re planning a fall hike down by the beach. We’re lucky we live in California and it’s warm enough in the fall to visit the beach.
Those are two very gorgeous dogs. My dogs love to get outdoors on hiking treks. Especially in this lovely fall weather.
That looks like a great place to go on a hike. I think that the dogs would like this.
We take our dogs hiking down at the lake all the time. Bet they would love those treats!
I had never heard of True Chews. Now I know all about how healthy they are I am going to have to pick some up for my dogs. Fall hiking is great, my favorite time to get out exploring, it is cooler, easier on me and my four legged friends. I am now trying to get my oldest daughter to enjoy hiking, but so far it is not working, she does not enjoy the woods, as much as I do.
I love hiking with my dogs. Although, one of my dogs isn’t as enthusiastic as the other and usually ends up being carried by one of my sons.
Bet they loved the treats. and I love nature walks in our local state park. Its so green and pretty there.
I love hiking with my dog Sheba. She really enjoys it and I see Ivy and Rylie does as well. Never heard of True Chews.
Hiking is great-I did it in Vermont this fall during the colors and it would be far better with a dog than a lot of humans I know
My Yellow Lab would love some True Chews
Wow, I love going hiking with my entire family, we always have a blast. The treats look healthy, I’m going to have to purchase some to see if they like them.
I am just stuck on your dogs. I have always loved husky’s. They look like they have you in the palm of their paws!
Nice
you have gorgeous dogs! these are really neat and i love the flavors they have. never heard of these before but they sound great
I think that the Malamutes are cute. I would love to try the Ivi & Rylie brand name out for my pup.
Always fun to take your dog on the trails. Our look forward to it.
My dog loves chicken. She would probably like to try the Chicken Bacon Recipe.
Ivi and Rylie are very pretty dogs. I am happy that they had a fun-filled hike with some very good treats.
It looks like the dogs and you enjoyed your hike. Rocky our Chihuahua takes me for walks. We enjoy it so much. The dog treats sound great. I like that they are all natural.
You are lucky to have a nature preserve near you. It does look like fun for the dogs and the doggie moms, too.
Dogs love this! Definitely fun adventure
