Welcome to Parchment & Pawprint

Parchment & Pawprint is a small, family-run dog treat bakery based in Oswego, Illinois. Founded in 2021 to create meaningful, joyful work for our son Zach — a young adult with Down syndrome — our mission is simple: make wholesome, fresh-baked treats for dogs, and build real opportunities for individuals with disabilities.

What started as a simple summer farmer's market booth has grown into a beloved local brand with a growing base of loyal customers who care deeply about quality, community, and inclusivity. Every treat is handmade in small batches using only human-grade ingredients - you'll find Zach shopping the organic section of our local grocery stores every week - and shaped with fun custom 3D-printed cookie cutters designed in-house.

We’re proud to share our journey and welcome you to the Parchment & Pawprint community.
