What Makes Our Ultimate Treat Pouch™ Stand Out?
We’re so glad you asked! While there are plenty of treat pouches on the market, ours is truly one of a kind. Crafted from premium silicone, it features a spring-assisted mechanism for effortless opening and closing. Every detail has been thoughtfully designed—from the wide-access opening that makes grabbing treats a breeze to the sturdy, stay-put belt that keeps your hands free during training. Our custom-designed hinges ensure the pouch stays securely closed when not in use, preventing spills or accidental access. Plus, the stainless steel frame not only adds durability but also resists rust, ensuring your pouch stands the test of time. With minimal maintenance required, this is a product built to last. Finally, its slim, sleek profile makes it super comfortable to wear without feeling bulky or cumbersome. We’ve put care into every feature, and we’re confident you’ll notice the difference from the very first use!
Which Size Should I Choose?
Great question! Choosing between the Standard, Large, or Sealable Edition treat pouch depends on more than just the size or breed of your dog. While capacity is an obvious difference, here are a few key features to consider to help you decide:
• Standard Pouch: Holds 16 oz of food or treats (about 2 cups of kibble). Its slightly flatter base makes it sit more flush when worn on a belt, offering a sleek and compact option for everyday use.
• Large Pouch: Holds approximately 24 oz (about 3 cups of kibble) and is almost two inches taller than the Standard. This size is ideal for longer outings, training sessions, or when working with multiple dogs. Its wider base allows the pouch to stand upright, doubling as a convenient water bowl—perfect for outdoor adventures.
• Sealable Edition: Holding approximately 20 oz, this size offers an airtight seal to keep food fresh and moist over extended periods. It also locks in odors, making it an excellent option for storing treats in your fridge or car without unwanted smells.
Each pouch is thoughtfully designed to meet different needs. Consider your typical activities, the number of dogs, and your preference for the amount of food or treats you will carry to choose the one that best fits your lifestyle. A convenient accessory to enhance your experience is our Adventure Clip, designed to make it effortless to carry and use multiple pouches at once!
Can I wash my Ultimate Treat Pouch™ in water?
Yes! Your pouch is dishwasher safe, however for best results, we recommend hand washing. Fill the pouch about halfway with lukewarm water, add a couple drops of dishwasher detergent, close the pouch and swirl it to disperse the liquid evenly. Rinse thoroughly before use. Avoid using harsh chemicals.
My New Pouch Feels Stiff and Makes a Slight Grinding Noise When Opening and Closing. Is This Normal?
Yes, this is completely normal! The custom-designed spring in your pouch may require a short “break-in” period. During this time, the metal contact points at the hinges adjust to ensure smooth and seamless operation. In most cases, this minor stiffness and noise resolve naturally after a bit of regular use. If the pouch still feels “sticky” or doesn’t open and close smoothly after some time, simply apply a couple of drops of the oil provided with your pouch to the hinges. This should quickly improve functionality. If you continue to experience issues, don’t hesitate to reach out to us—we’re always happy to help.

Can I trim the belt if it’s too long?
Absolutely! Once you’ve decided on the correct length, we recommend using a sharpie to mark the belt where you plan to cut. Carefully trim the belt with a pair of sharp scissors. Then, lightly seal the cut ends with a lighter to harden the fabric and prevent fraying.
How do I attach the D-ring?
To install the D-ring, follow these steps:
1. Check Compatibility: Ensure that your treat pouch is compatible with the D-ring by locating the holes at the bottom corners of the pouch. These holes are visible from both the front and back sides of the pouch. Be careful not to confuse these with the smaller holes used for oiling.
2. Remove the Pin: Using a small Phillips-head screwdriver, remove the pin from the D-ring.
3. Align the D-ring: Align the holes on the D-ring with the holes on your treat pouch.
4. Insert and Tighten the Pin: Insert the pin through the aligned holes and use the screwdriver to tighten it. Be careful not to over-tighten, as this may damage the components.
5. Installation Complete: Your D-ring is now securely installed and ready to use!
Any tips on how I can make it easier to close my Sealable Edition treat pouch so that it’s airtight?
To make sealing your treat pouch easier, apply a small amount of dog-safe cooking oil to the sealing tracks. Simply dab your finger in the oil and run it along the tracks. This will make it much easier to press and seal the pouch! To ensure the pouch is sealed properly, gently squeeze it. If the seal is secure, you’ll notice the air is trapped inside the pouch.

Treats spill out of my pouch when I bend over even when closed, is this normal?
Our Ultimate Treat Pouches are designed to securely hold even the smallest kibble when closed. However, small crumbs may occasionally fall out if the pouch is turned upside down. To minimize the gap when closed, simply follow the bending instructions in the video below:

My treat pouch doesn’t stay open or closes too easily. Can this be fixed?
The hinge is designed to stay open using friction. If it closes too easily, it could be due to excessive oiling or a faulty spring. Please contact us at support@voilapets.com, and our team will be happy to assist you.
