Made in Maharashtra, India 🇮🇳
Real Food. Real Dogs. Real Results.
Single-ingredient dehydrated treats with zero preservatives, zero fillers, zero compromise. Your dog deserves the truth on the label.
A free, complete handbook for anyone who feeds street dogs — first aid, vaccination guidance,
foods to avoid, injured animal care, and how to build trust safely. Everything you need in one place.
“If you can’t read it, your dog shouldn’t eat it.”
We audited 12 popular Indian brands. Here’s what we found:
83%
had grain filler in top 3 ingredients
75%
contained artificial colours
67%
listed BHA or BHT preservatives
17%
had a single whole protein first
How It Happened
From frustrated dog parent to 29 honest products
1
Early 2024
The label that changed everything
We’d been feeding our dog a popular treat for months. One day we read the label. Corn starch. BHA. Artificial colour. We put it down and never picked it up again.
2
Mid 2024
The kitchen experiments begin
We bought a food dehydrator. Sourced chicken from our local butcher in Kalyan. Dehydrated it slow and low. Put it in front of our dog. The reaction was instant. We knew.
3
Late 2024
The neighbours’ dogs agreed
We shared batches with other dog parents in Kalyan. Same feedback every time — dogs went wild, coats improved, digestion settled. We started taking it seriously.
4
Early 2025
Game of Bones launches
Official launch with 2 products: Chicken Jerky and Buff Jerky. Humidity-resistant zip-lock packaging. Same rule as day one — one ingredient, nothing else.
★
Today
29 products. Same one rule.
Jerky, chews, organs, fish, whole prey. Every product still has one ingredient on the label. We’ve scaled the range. We have not scaled the complexity.
Non-Negotiables
Three promises we will never break
🌿
Promise 01
One Ingredient. Always.
The name on the front is the only thing inside. No fillers. No binders. No “natural flavour.” If we add anything, we’ll rename the product.
🧪
Promise 02
Human-Grade. Always.
We source only what we’d accept from our own butcher or fish market. The same quality standard you’d hold your own food to. No by-products. No mystery meat.
Promise 03
Made in India. Always.
Made in Maharashtra, India. Indian ingredients, Indian hands, humidity-proof packaging. We live here. We know what monsoon season does to food.

Transparency
Our Process
Every step visible. No secrets. No shortcuts.
01
Sourcing
Human-Grade Ingredients Only
We source exclusively from trusted suppliers. Every ingredient meets human consumption standards — the same quality you’d find at your butcher or fish market. Single origin, traceable, fresh. We visit suppliers personally and will not compromise on source quality regardless of cost.
02
Preparation
Hand-Prepared, Zero Chemicals
Every piece is cleaned and prepared by hand. No bleach wash. No chemical treatment. No preservative spray. We clean with plain water and prepare each batch fresh on the day it goes into the dehydrator. For fish, we debone where required. For organs, we trim excess fat for ideal texture after dehydration.
03
Dehydration
Slow-Dried at 55–70°C
This is where we differ from most commercial treats. Our dehydration runs at 55–70°C for 12–24 hours depending on the ingredient. This low, slow temperature removes moisture completely while preserving enzymes, amino acids, and micronutrients that high-heat baking destroys. The result is up to 95% nutrient retention versus around 50% for baked treats.
04
Quality & Packing
Tested, Weighed, Sealed
Every batch is visually inspected before packing. We check for texture, colour consistency, and complete moisture removal. Treats are weighed accurately for each size. Packed in resealable, humidity-resistant zip-lock pouches designed for India’s monsoon climate. Each pouch carries a production date and best-before date.

Our Commitment
Game of Bones is a small, owner-operated brand. Every order is packed by hand with care. We take full responsibility if something goes wrong on our end — wrong product, damaged packaging, missing items. We do not hide behind complicated return portals. WhatsApp us, send a photo, and we will sort it out the same day.
What Can Be Returned / Refunded
Because our products are perishable food items, returns work differently from non-food products. Please read the following carefully.
✓ Eligible for Full Refund or Replacement
Wrong product delivered — you received a different product than what you ordered
Packaging damaged in transit — the pouch arrived torn, crushed or with the seal broken (photo required within 48 hours of delivery)
Product significantly different from description — e.g. contents do not match the labelled product at all
Missing items — one or more products from your order were not included in the shipment
Order not delivered — tracking shows delivered but you did not receive the parcel (must be reported within 7 days of the tracking delivery date)
✘ Not Eligible for Return or Refund
Change of mind after delivery — your dog did not like the treat, or you ordered by mistake
Opened or partially consumed products — for hygiene and food safety reasons, we cannot accept back any opened treat pouches
Incorrect storage after delivery — product quality issues resulting from improper storage (e.g. stored in a humid area without resealing)
Smell complaints without product defect — dehydrated meat and fish treats have a strong natural aroma. This is not a defect. The smell is a sign of quality.
Damage reported after 48 hours of delivery — transit damage must be reported with photos within 48 hours
COD orders refused at delivery — if a COD order is refused without a valid reason, we reserve the right to block future COD orders from the same address

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
🔍
Yes. All Game of Bones treats are single-ingredient and free from additives, preservatives and fillers. They are safe for all breeds and life stages. Always supervise your dog while eating and choose treat sizes appropriate for your dog.
Puppies from 8 weeks can eat softer treats like Chicken Bites, Chicken Heart & Liver and Anchovies. Harder chews (Chicken Bones, Goat Trotter) should wait until 16+ weeks. Always start with small portions and monitor for any sensitivities.
Jerky and bites last 4–6 weeks at room temperature in a sealed pouch. Fish and organ treats should be refrigerated after opening and used within 2–3 weeks. All unopened products have a 6-month shelf life.
Yes, completely. Every product contains exactly one ingredient — the meat or fish itself. No grains, no corn, no soy, no artificial flavours, no preservatives. What you see on the label is all that is in the bag.
Treats should make up no more than 10% of your dog's daily caloric intake. Use our Treat Calculator (on the Shop page) to get a personalised recommendation based on your dog's weight and the treat type.
Maharashtra orders typically arrive in 2–4 business days. Pan-India delivery takes 3–7 business days. We dispatch orders within 24 hours of confirmation via WhatsApp.
Yes! We offer free shipping on all orders across India. No minimum order required.
Yes, we deliver across India. Use the Pincode Checker on the Shop page to check estimated delivery time for your area.
Returns can be requested within 48 hours of delivery using our self-serve return form — start a return here. If your order arrives damaged or incorrect, WhatsApp us at +91 90825 03295 with a photo and we will arrange a replacement or full refund. Opened products cannot be returned for hygiene reasons. Missed the 48-hour window? WhatsApp us anyway — we review exceptional cases individually.
We understand every dog is different! If your dog doesn't take to a treat, WhatsApp us — we'll recommend an alternative and work something out. Our goal is a happy dog, not a completed sale.
Dehydrated (low-heat dried) bones are very different from cooked bones. Cooking makes bones brittle and likely to splinter dangerously. Dehydration keeps the bone pliable and fully digestible. All our bone products are dehydrated, not cooked.
Because every treat is single-ingredient, you know exactly what your dog is eating. For chicken-sensitive dogs, try Buff Jerky, Sardines, Mackerel, Bombay Duck or Goat products — none of these contain chicken. Use the Treat Finder Quiz on the Shop page for personalised recommendations.
All ingredients are sourced from trusted, human-grade suppliers. Our facility in Kalyan, Maharashtra follows food-grade hygiene standards. We test every batch for moisture content and microbial safety.
Our team is on WhatsApp from 9 AM to 7 PM, every day.

⛔ Foods to NEVER Give
Some human foods are toxic to dogs and can cause serious health issues or death. Here's what to avoid:
🍫 Chocolate
Contains theobromine. Even small amounts cause vomiting, diarrhea, seizures, and death. Dark chocolate is more dangerous.
🧅 Onions & Garlic
Damage red blood cells causing hemolytic anemia. Both raw and cooked are dangerous.
🍇 Grapes & Raisins
Cause kidney failure. Toxicity is dose-dependent and highly dangerous.
🥛 Dairy (Milk, Cheese)
Most adult dogs are lactose intolerant. Causes diarrhea and stomach upset.
🥓 Cooked Bones
Splinter and cause choking, internal perforations, GI blockage.
🧂 Excess Salt & Spices
Causes dehydration and electrolyte imbalance.
🥗 Xylitol (Sugar-Free)
Found in gum and candy. Causes severe hypoglycemia and liver failure.
🥤 Alcohol & Caffeine
Even small amounts cause neurological damage and heart problems.
🌰 Macadamia Nuts
Cause muscle tremors, weakness, and paralysis.
🥑 Avocado
Contains persin which causes vomiting, diarrhea, and heart damage.
🍞 Moldy or Spoiled Food
Contains mycotoxins causing severe poisoning. Always check freshness.
🚨 EMERGENCY: If dog ingests any toxic food:
Contact vet IMMEDIATELY. Time is critical — most toxins are treatable if handled quickly.

🚑 First Aid Guide
🩹 Minor Cuts & Wounds
Treatment: Clean with antiseptic. Use Intas D Mag Wound Care Spray (antimicrobial spray) or Woundheal powder (healing & antiseptic). Apply sterile bandage. Watch for infection (swelling, pus, odor). See vet if bleeding won't stop.
🪲 Tick Removal
Treatment: Use tweezers to grasp close to skin. Pull straight out steadily. Don't twist. Clean with antiseptic. For prevention, use Simparica (oral flea & tick prevention). Check body daily during monsoon.
🌡️ Heat Stroke (Summer)
Treatment: Signs: excessive panting, drooling, lethargy. Move to shade. Apply cool water (NOT ice). Offer water slowly. Cool for 10-15 mins then VET IMMEDIATELY. Heat stroke is life-threatening.
💧 Dehydration
Treatment: Signs: dry gums, sunken eyes, lethargy. Offer water frequently in small amounts. Use oral rehydration salts if available. Provide shade & rest. See vet if doesn't improve in 2-3 hours.
🤢 Vomiting & Diarrhea
Treatment: Fast for 12-24 hours. Offer water only. After fasting, give bland diet (boiled rice + plain chicken). Monitor for blood. URGENT: See vet if continues beyond 24 hours or with fever.
🐛 Maggot Infestation
Treatment: Clean wound with saline. Use Simparica or Ivermectin (prescription) to kill maggots. Apply Woundheal powder. Bandage. URGENT: See vet same day — maggots spread quickly & cause severe infection.
🦴 Broken Leg / Fracture
🚨 EMERGENCY: Immobilize limb with cloth/splint. Do NOT move unnecessarily. Call ambulance/rescue organization immediately. Transport carefully on flat surface. VET SURGERY NEEDED.
🚨 When to SEE VET IMMEDIATELY
Unconsciousness • Difficulty breathing • Heavy bleeding • Suspected fracture • Severe pain • Inability to move limbs • Suspected poisoning • Maggots in wounds • Heat stroke • Persistent vomiting. Don't delay.
Rabies is 100% fatal once symptoms appear. Vaccination is the only prevention. DHPP protects against Distemper, Hepatitis, Parvo, Para-influenza — all deadly. A vaccinated dog survives; an unvaccinated one often doesn't. Vaccination protects humans AND the community stray population.
Feline Leukemia: ₹300-500, optional but recommended for outdoor/stray cats
Deworming: ₹50-200, same as dogs
💡 Pro Tip: Many municipal corporations and NGOs run FREE vaccination camps monthly. Check your local animal welfare organizations or municipal ward office for dates and locations. YODA, Karuna, and other rescue organizations often conduct free camps.

🐀 Rat Poison (Most Common)
Signs: Lethargy, vomiting, bleeding from gums/nose, pale gums, difficulty breathing.
Action: RUSH TO VET IMMEDIATELY — Treatable with blood transfusion & vitamin K if caught early (within 2-3 hours).
Action: Dark chocolate = more toxic. Get to vet. Activated charcoal may help if given within 1 hour.
💊 Human Medicines
Signs: Vary (NSAIDs cause vomiting; sleeping pills cause drowsiness/coma).
Action: Bring medicine bottle to vet. Many human drugs are TOXIC to dogs.
🚨 IMMEDIATE ACTIONS TO SLOW POISON (Do While Going to Vet)
Activated Charcoal (if available): Gives ₹50-100 tablets to absorb poison in stomach. Works best within 1-2 hours of ingestion. Do NOT use for corrosive poisons (rat poison, oils).
Make dog vomit (ONLY for certain poisons): Give 3% hydrogen peroxide (1 tsp per 5kg body weight) to induce vomiting if within 30 mins. NOT for corrosive substances. Ask vet by phone first.
Keep calm: Stress speeds up poison absorption. Keep dog quiet, cool, and rested.
DO NOT make dog vomit for: Rat poison, acids, oils, petroleum, strong chemicals.
Identify the poison: Bring container/sample to vet. This helps them treat faster.
Note timing: When was poison eaten? VET NEEDS THIS.
GET TO VET IMMEDIATELY: These steps only BUY TIME. Professional treatment is critical.
⚠️ IMPORTANT FACTS
Time is life: Poisoning is time-critical. Every minute counts. Get to vet IMMEDIATELY.
Most poisonings ARE treatable: If caught within 1-4 hours, survival rate is high.
Deliberately poisoning dogs is a CRIME: Under Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, punishment is up to 2 years imprisonment + ₹5000 fine. Report to police (100) and animal NGOs.
Prevention: Never leave rat poison/pesticides in open. Secure all medicines. Watch what strays eat.
🦷 Bite Prevention: Safe Approach
Understanding Dog Body Language
⚠️ Warning Signs (Back Away)
Stiff body • Raised hackles • Intense stare • Bared teeth • Growling • Ears back/forward aggressively
✓ Friendly Signs (Okay to Approach)
Relaxed body • Soft eyes • Wagging tail • Play bow • Slow approach • Relaxed mouth
Safe Approach Techniques
Never approach suddenly — come slowly from the side
Speak softly — intense staring is a threat
Let dog approach you — don't reach out first
Sit or crouch down — appear smaller
Offer food as incentive
NEVER pet while eating — HIGHEST bite risk
If You're Bitten or Scratched
Wash immediately with soap and water for 5-15 minutes
Do NOT apply home remedies — get medical care
Go to hospital within 24 hours (ideally within 48 hours)
Tell doctor it was a street dog — get rabies prophylaxis
Complete all anti-rabies doses (usually 5 doses over 2 weeks)
Report incident to municipal authorities
⚠️ CRITICAL:
Rabies is 100% fatal once symptoms appear. Vaccination is 100% effective if started before symptoms.
💝 Building Trust Over Days & Weeks
The Trust Timeline
Week 1-2:
Dog watches from distance, may not eat if you're present
Week 3-4:
Dog eats while you're nearby but keeps distance
Week 5-8:
Dog allows you closer, may approach for food
Week 8-12:
Dog shows comfort (tail wagging, approaching voluntarily)
Week 12+:
Dog bonded, allows petting, reliable relationship. Some take months/years — be patient!
Trust Building Techniques
Consistency is KEY: Same time, place, person
Patience: Never force interaction
Soft Voice: Calm tone, avoid loud noises
Let Dog Approach: Don't reach out first
Reward Approach: Food/praise when dog comes closer
Sit Down: Appear smaller and less threatening
Play Nearby: Show friendliness through play
No Sudden Movements: Slow, deliberate actions only
First Petting: Only when eating or relaxed, chest/shoulders only
Read Signals: If stiffens/backs away — STOP immediately
🍽️ Responsible Feeding Etiquette
🧹 Clean Up Leftovers
Remove uneaten food after 20-30 minutes. Old food attracts pests and spreads disease. Keep area hygienic — reduces complaints and disease transmission.
🚫 Don't Block Entrances
Feed away from apartment entrances. Don't create obstacles for residents. Choose peripheral locations where dogs can eat safely and people can pass freely.
👥 Respect Local Residents
Be mindful of neighborhood concerns. Feed at less visible times. Communicate about your work. Build support, not conflict.
⏰ Consistent Times
Feed at EXACT same time daily. Dogs remember and expect. Consistency creates routine and helps track health patterns.
♻️ Dispose Waste Responsibly
Properly dispose packaging and uneaten food. Don't leave waste in communal areas. Prevents pest attraction and disease spread.
📍 Portion Size
Give 1-2 cups per medium dog. Adjust based on body condition. Fresh water always available. More is not better.
Best Practices Summary
Always wear gloves when handling food and dogs
Wash hands thoroughly (20+ seconds) after feeding
Use separate utensils/bowls for dog food
Keep your own pet vaccinated (rabies, DHPP) — your protection
Monitor dogs for health changes and report to vets
Build relationships with other feeders in your area

Guidelines for peaceful coexistence. Built on compassion, responsibility, and legal compliance.
1️⃣ RIGHT TO COEXIST
Community animals have the right to live in territories. Cannot be moved or poisoned except for sterilization/medical treatment.
2️⃣ DESIGNATED FEEDING
Only at approved spots. Fixed feeding times. Avoid blocking entrances, staircases, or play areas.
Via managing committee → municipal authorities. No individual unlawful action allowed.
9️⃣ WATER & CARE
Provide water bowls. Doesn't obstruct pathways. Shade during hot seasons.
🔟 NO BLANKET BANS
Societies cannot ban feeding community animals. Such actions violate legal provisions.
