Pépo believes every pet deserves moments of pure joy, celebrated with treats as wholesome and heartwarming as the love they give. The journey began in Mumbai when the founder, a devoted pet parent, witnessed her pup Mia struggling under the afternoon sun. A simple desire to offer a cool, delicious treat quickly revealed a challenge: most human ice creams contain ingredients toxic for pets, laden with lactose, sugar, and additives. This pivotal moment sparked a profound question: "Why can't there be a pet-safe frozen treat that is both nourishing and delightful?" Pépo Pet-Friendly Ice Creams was born from this deep affection, curiosity, and the unwavering commitment to making every furry friend smile, offering healthy dog ice cream and cat ice cream across India.
Driven by the guiding principle of creating treats kind to tummies and full of goodness, Pépo embarked on a meticulous development process. Collaborating with veterinarians, nutritionists, and purveyors of natural foods, we crafted a base that is both gentle and genuinely delicious. Our signature ingredients include: raw goat’s milk or unsweetened soy milk, chosen for their easy digestibility, natural probiotics, and suitability for sensitive stomachs (goat's milk, in particular, offers lower lactose and supports immunity); a touch of raw organic honey and blackstrap molasses, providing gentle sweetness, antioxidants, and vital energy without harmful sugar; and healthy fats like ghee or virgin sunflower oil for smoothness, joint-promoting fatty acids, and a taste pets adore. Every scoop is handcrafted, frozen fresh, and balanced perfectly for cats and dogs of all ages, including puppies, kittens, and seniors.
Pépo is more than just healthy pet treats; it's about fostering cherished connections and creating unforgettable moments. We celebrate watching paws eagerly dig into a cup, whiskers frosted in joy, and the soft purr of satisfaction. Our core values guide every aspect of our craft: **Health-first**, ensuring every ingredient is selected for digestibility, nutrition, and safety, free from artificial sweeteners or toxic inclusions. **Delicious delight**, because taste matters, and pets deserve enjoyable, nutritious pet food. **Inclusive joy**, as our versatile Instamix formats cater to all life stages and dietary needs, including sensitive stomachs. And finally, **Ethical and sustainable** practices, through responsible sourcing and thoughtful packaging, reflecting ingredients you'd trust for your own plate.
What began as a local Mumbai experiment has blossomed into a trusted brand among pet parents across India. Pépo's veterinarian-approved frozen treats are now available online in a tempting array of flavors, from natural vegan and choco-banana to chikiver, ensuring a favorite for every palate. Our dream is simple yet profound: that every pet, regardless of age, breed, or digestive quirks, can experience the simple joy of their very own frozen treat. Outside heat doesn't have to mean discomfort, and sensitive tummies don't mean missing out. When you choose Pépo, you’re choosing wellness, love, and a little frozen celebration.
