Dr. Phytos Partners with Pawfectly Delicious Dog Treats to Support Adults with Disabilities—and Their Dogs

Dr. Phytos is proud to announce its partnership with Pawfectly Delicious, a nonprofit based in Alexandria, Virginia that’s baking up more than healthy dog treats. They’re creating jobs, skills, and purpose for adults with disabilities.

 

Founded in 2017 by Executive Director Anne Tuccillo and her son Bryan, Pawfectly Delicious Dog Treats was born from a desire to solve a serious problem: the lack of paid employment opportunities for adults with disabilities after aging out of school services. Today, the organization employs 11 adults in their 20s and 30s, offering meaningful work in baking, packaging, and selling all-natural ginger dog treats.

 

“What we do is make dog treats. Why we do it is to provide adults with disabilities meaningful employment opportunities,” said Tuccillo.

 

From rolling dough to packing bags and selling at community events, the Pawfectly Delicious team brings passion, skill, and joy to every step. And their impact reaches far beyond the bakery.

 

A Workplace That Nurtures the Whole Person

Pawfectly Delicious goes beyond job training. Through its Employee Wellness Initiative, team members participate in weekly activities such as nutrition counseling, chair yoga, music therapy, strength training, and professional development. The goal? To support the growth and well-being of each team member—physically, mentally, and emotionally.

 

Where Dog Lovers Come Together

The dog community is one of connection, celebration, and unconditional love—values that Pawfectly Delicious shares and fosters. While the treats are for dogs, the mission is all about people. The organization regularly gives back through donations to animal shelters and partners with like-minded groups, further weaving itself into the fabric of the community.

 

A Partnership with Purpose

Dr. Phytos shares Pawfectly Delicious’ belief in the power of good nutrition and meaningful connection—for both pets and people. This partnership will help expand awareness and support for Pawfectly Delicious’ mission, while introducing Dr. Phytos customers to dog treats that truly make a difference.
