Life of Riley's Beetroot Biscuits are crunchy, handmade dog treats with a naturally vivid colour — the deep purple-red comes entirely from the beetroot, with no artificial dyes needed. Made on a grain-free gram flour base with coconut, peanut butter, and fresh beetroot, these are one of the more visually distinctive treats in the range, and the beetroot isn't just for colour: it brings a meaningful set of nutritional properties that make these a genuinely functional everyday biscuit.

Handmade by Life of Riley Bakery Ltd in the UK. 100% natural, grain-free, and vegan. No artificial additives or preservatives.

  • Beetroot — naturally rich in antioxidants: Beetroot contains betalains, a group of potent antioxidant pigments responsible for its deep colour. These have well-documented anti-inflammatory properties and support cellular health. Beetroot is also a natural source of vitamin C, folate, and manganese.
  • Supports digestion and immune health: The combination of dietary fibre from beetroot and gram flour supports healthy gut function. Vitamin C contributes to normal immune system activity, and the natural nitrates in beetroot support healthy cardiovascular function and oxygen delivery to muscles.
  • Promotes coat and skin health: The antioxidants and essential fatty acids from coconut and peanut butter contribute to coat condition and skin health over time with regular feeding.
  • Naturally coloured — no artificial dyes: The vivid colour comes entirely from the beetroot itself. These are a great option for owners who want treats that look appealing without any artificial colours.
  • Grain-free gram flour base: Made from chickpea flour rather than wheat — grain-free, gluten-free, and well tolerated by dogs with grain or gluten sensitivities.
  • Grain-free and vegan: No meat, no dairy, no grains — suitable for dogs on hypoallergenic, grain-free, or plant-based diets.

Common questions

What are the actual benefits of beetroot for dogs?
Beetroot is genuinely nutritious for dogs in treat quantities. Its betalain antioxidants have well-evidenced anti-inflammatory properties. It's a natural source of vitamin C (immune support), folate (cell health), manganese (bone and metabolism), and dietary nitrates (cardiovascular and muscle function). The fibre content also supports digestive health. It won't replace a complete diet, but as a functional treat ingredient it's among the more substantive additions a biscuit can contain.
Will beetroot stain my floors or my dog?
Beetroot's natural pigments can leave a temporary mark on light-coloured surfaces if the treat is wet or crumbled — worth bearing in mind on pale carpets. It can also cause pinkish or reddish discolouration in urine or stools, which is entirely harmless (a common phenomenon called beeturia, which affects some humans too). It isn't a health concern and passes naturally. These are dry, crunchy biscuits rather than moist treats, which minimises the transfer risk during normal feeding.
Can these be used as training treats?
Yes — the biscuit format is dry and crunchy, so they're clean to handle and practical for training use. They're not as small and uniform as dedicated mini training treats, but they can easily be broken into smaller pieces for high-frequency rewarding during a session. The peanut butter and beetroot combination is palatable for most dogs.
Are these suitable for dogs with grain or chicken sensitivities?
Yes — the recipe contains no wheat, oats, or other grains, and no chicken or meat of any kind. The four ingredients are gram flour (chickpea flour — a legume, not a grain), coconut, peanut butter, and beetroot. This makes them suitable for dogs on grain-free, chicken-free, or limited-ingredient diets, provided peanut butter is tolerated.
