It started with a trip to the county fair.

We were walking down the boardwalk at our local county fair, when a woman looked at us and said, "Hey, I just won a bunny - do you want it?" Feeling sad for the homeless bunny we said "Yes".  And that simple act of compassion started our obsession with bunnies and other small pets. Next up was our first Holland Lop - we named him Hansel because of the "trail" he used to leave in our kitchen. Before long we were home to bunnies, rats, and chinchillas.  As discerning pet owners we were always very particular about providing our little ones the highest quality of food and treats. 

After realizing a huge gap in the number of quality products offered to small pet industry, we started making our own.  And the reception was amazing.  For years, dogs and cats may have occupied the spotlight in every pet store. But our little guys deserve better, and they know it. That's why we're shifting attention to the Little Beasts of the world. We work to develop the most engaging treats and toys, and then let small pets tell us if they approve. Once they give us the thumbs up, we make more so their friends around the world can also enjoy unique textures and flavors that can't be found anywhere else.

One of our first bunnies named Tonto.  We spent hundreds of hours curating the best nutrient dense diet for a bright coat and happy life.

Our friend's adorable hamster named Nutmeg trying out LBT Sunshine tea for the first time. We knew immediately this would be a hit after she couldn't fit any more in her chubby cheek.

UNIQUELY INVENTIVE

Two piggies sharing our flavored balsa throws.  This tasty combination quickly became one of our most popular all-natural low glycemic  treats.

All LBT products are made of safe materials that won't harm little teeth, claws, or sensitive digestive systems. As as example, did you know the reason the Versitunnel is made with premium fleece is because fleece material has small fibers that won't cause gut issues if accidentally ingested? Every tea, treat, foraging tray, and chew is made from 100% natural elements found in nature - with absolutely no chemical additives. 

New products like our foraging tray line are built completely from 100% natural wood instead of plywood or plastic which is known for bpa's, dioxins, phthalates, vinyl chloride, lead and cadmium. 

We are investing heavily into the small pet market, and we are building an intellectual property portfolio like the patent pending Versitunnel to make sure that new products will be built safely and not counterfeited. 

We thank you very much for being a part of the LBT family and helping us provide your "loved ones" with treats, toys, and little surprises that brighten their day! LBT's goal is to be a friend and partner of your little guy for years to come.
