6. BENNETT J. LOUDON staff photographer Laura, 13, left, with Cocoa, and Mary-Kate Olds, 11, with Sunny, sell their homemade Bow Wow dog biscuits and donate part of the proceeds to charities. They aren't crunchy like Milk-bone biscuits. "They're almost like a pie crust," mother Terrie Olds said.
To follow state laws, they had to pay $53 to have the biscuits analyzed at a Cornell University laboratory so they could list all the ingredients on the label. And 50 cents of the price of each package goes to charity. For about a month after the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, the charity was the American Red Cross, which received $150. Now the charities are the Humane Society of Wayne County and Rochester Animal Services, the city's animal control agency.
They sell a total of about 50 packages of biscuits each week at eight vets' offices in Wayne County and one in Monroe County. "They seem to be a hit with the dogs. They're not a health biscuit, they're a treat," Terrie Olds said. The Oldses hope to sell the biscuits at more locations after the holidays. "People have been very receptive.
Even if a doctor says we can't do that, they're very nice about it," Terrie Olds said. Things really took off after the family took Cocoa to their vet, Luba Drouin, in Walworth. Drouin offered the dog a store-bought snack biscuit. Cocoa, spoiled by the homemade snacks, turned down the vet's treat. The Oldses explained that Cocoa was accustomed to their special recipe, and the vet suggested selling them at her office "People received them quite well.
They started selling," Terrie said. where Laura is in the eighth grade and Mary-Kate is a sixth-grader. Now the girls are looking for new outlets to sell the biscuits, such as dog groomers and pet shops. "They are thinking about coming up with a different recipe, maybe a different flavor," Terrie said. "I'm really proud of the girls, that they've donated that $150 to the Red Cross.
They both want to start volunteering at the humane society," Terrie said. "They're a neat thing and the dogs obviously love them. They BY STA FF WRITER BENNETT J. LOUDON WALWORTH When sisters Mary-Kate and Laura Olds decided to start a business to help pay for a saddle and the boarding of their horse, it seemed only natural that their venture would have something to do with animals. The horse, a 102-year-old black Tennessee walker named Chance, is only the latest addition to the menagerie that populates the Olds homestead on Downs Road.
Two ewes, Wooly and Spring, share the barn with Sunny, a mixed breed dog, and Cocoa, a chocolate Labrador retriever. The cat, Stripes, wanders freely. The only animals allowed in the house father Cliff has allergies are the rabbit, Carmel, and the tropical fish. "We wanted to do something with animals and we were thinking of dog grooming, or baby-sitting animals. Then we thought dog biscuits would be a great thing to do," Laura Olds said.
On the Internet, 13-year-old Laura and 11-year-old Mary-Kate found a variety of recipes, which they tested and used as the basis for their own formula for Bow Wow cheeseburger biscuits. The ingredients are garlic powder, vegetable oil, flour and water, with Moist and Meaty dog food sprinkled in. The biscuits are prepared in a room off the family kitchen and baked in their mother's oven. They are packaged in clear plastic wrappers tied with ribbons and sold at veterinarians' offices for $2.50 for 10 biscuits.
