History[edit | edit source]
Frosty Paws was originally developed in the 1970s by Dr. William Tyznik, a professor of animal science at The Ohio State University. The product was initially called "Pet79" and was later renamed Frosty Paws. In 1991, the brand was acquired by Nestlé, which integrated it into its Purina line of pet products.

The treats are fortified with essential vitamins and minerals, such as vitamin E, vitamin B12, and calcium. They are also formulated to be low in fat and calories, making them a suitable occasional treat for dogs of all sizes.
