Abstract

An animal treat dispensing container is disclosed. An example treat dispensing container includes a pouch configured to contain a food substance ingestible by an animal, a nozzle connected to a first exterior face of the pouch and configured to enable the food substance to exit the pouch, and a nozzle cap configured to enclose the nozzle. The treat dispensing container also includes a strap configured to connect the nozzle cap to the nozzle and a hook or fastener located on a second exterior face of the pouch. The hook is configured to secure at least one of the nozzle cap and the strap after the nozzle cap is removed from the nozzle, thereby preventing a mouth of the animal from biting or otherwise ingesting the nozzle cap when the animal is licking the food substance from the nozzle.
