    Tom Gibbons mixes dog cookie batter


    Canine Naturale

    Business specializes in healthy food for dogs


    Several times a week, Tom Gibbons takes a walk in his Willow Glen neighborhood to parks where there are daily gatherings of canine friends and the people who love them. He also frequently stops complete strangers with dogs who happen to walk in front of his home on Lincoln Avenue. At all times, Gibbons has with him small sample bags of his highly nutritious dog cookies that he makes in a special bakery, using only ingredients fit for human consumption.
