Bonio is a brand of dog biscuit[1] sold in the United Kingdom.[2] It was originally sold by Spratts Patent Ltd. of London[3] some 75 years ago,[4] but through various acquisitions, it is now marketed by Nestlé Purina PetCare. Bonio is produced in Aintree, Liverpool.

History

[edit]

Since 1932, Bonio biscuits have been traditionally oven-baked.[4]

According to 'Scotsman,' UK News outlet; “One Bonio dog biscuit has 78 calories, about 7 per cent of an adult Labrador's daily allowance, if it is exercised normally. This is similar to a KitKat Chunky, which has 207 calories – 8 per cent of an adult man's recommended daily calorie intake.[5]
