Some businesses start with a big plan. Others start with a small town, a family, and a great idea.

Ma & Paw’s Pet Treats began nearly a decade ago in Garden Prairie, Illinois, when founder Dara Mogenis and her family discovered something special: selling all-natural pet treats was a fun, easy way for their kids to raise money for school trips. People genuinely loved supporting their efforts, and pets loved the treats! What started as a simple fundraiser quickly turned into something much bigger.

Today, Ma & Paw’s Pet Treats is a family-owned brand offering professionally baked, all-natural dog treats made in the USA. Their growing lineup includes more than 10 treat flavors, along with natural chews and freeze-dried options – all made without preservatives, corn, soy, or wheat. Many treats are even grain-free, with full ingredient transparency listed on every package. 

Family is at the heart of everything Ma & Paw’s does. From packaging and delivery to marketing and design, the whole family pitches in. As demand for their treats grew, Ma & Paw’s expanded into retail, partnering with local and regional businesses to bring their products to more furry friends. They also launched a dedicated fundraising website, making it easy for schools, groups, and organizations to raise money while offering a product people love to buy.

Ma & Paw’s has trusted ClearBags from day one (now 9 years and counting!) to package their treats by hand or with hopper equipment. Their go-to packaging includes ClearBags Clear Zipper Pouches (including ZBG58 and ZBG46) so customers can easily see exactly what they’re buying. The clear packaging builds confidence, while simple, easy-to-read ingredient labels make shopping easy. Ma and Paw’s utilizes reliable, food-safe packaging to help keep their treats fresh, organized and retail-ready, whether they’re headed to a fundraiser, an online order, or a store shelf.

We’re proud to support a brand that proves great treats (and good causes) really do go hand in paw. Learn more at www.MaAndPaws2.com or explore their fundraising program at www.MaAndPawsFundraising.com.
