Tasty, natural chunks and gravy style recipes bring the family's favorite home-cooked meals to your dog's bowl

Tewksbury, MA (January 15, 2008) — Now there is a NEW comfort food recipe made just for dogs! Introducing six NEW heartwarming and wholesome canned recipes available in Old Mother Hubbard® Cupboard Creations™ Chunks & Gravy Style Entrées. These mouthwatering meals for dogs, like Hearty Beef Stew and Chicken Pot Pie, are just like the ones grandma used to make from scratch - lovingly measuring, seasoning and stirring savory chunky style meats, fruits, vegetables and great-tasting gravies into family favorites. And all are nutritionally balanced to meet a canine's particular needs, versus high fat and high calorie table scraps.

Perfect for adult dogs and puppies too, Old Mother Hubbard Cupboard Creations will surely please every kind of appetite, either for those who indulge in chunks and gravy meals exclusively, as a perfect mixer or topper to dry kibble, or even a special treat. Every delectable recipe, three of which are grain free, is chock full of high-quality, natural ingredients you'd find in your own grandmother's pantry. Fresh vegetables you can see like peas, carrots, green beans, red peppers and spinach, and natural herbs like rosemary, thyme and sage add to the home-cooked flavor.

Each Old Mother Hubbard Cupboard Creations entrée is packed with ethoxyquin-free, human-grade protein sources and contains no wheat or wheat gluten, meat by-products or anything artificial, just as consumers and their canine companions have come to expect from Old Mother Hubbard.
