The brand is the brainchild of Gemma Connolly, who suffered a heart attack at the age of 30 and decided to take a step back from her marketing and advertising job. The Lancashire dog-lover started to volunteer for Guide Dogs for the Blind and has raised and trained 11 dogs, saying it ‘saved her life’, becoming an ambassador for the association. She went on to launch Scoff Paper as a safe, fun and entertaining product for pups and pooch parents alike.

 

The Scoff Paper greetings cards were the first ever ethical, rawhide-free cards for dogs, purely created for your dog to have five minutes of pure joy. They stock birthday, gotcha day, get well soon and just because cards, as well as a selection of seasonal cards which rotate throughout the year – like Easter and Christmas.

 

The pens themselves have two tips – one narrow and one not-so-narrow so you’re your message can be as elegant or as emphatic as you like.

 

The ink is vegan friendly and should be stored at room temperature. 

 

The cards are made using natural ingredients, as well as Omega 3 and Omega 6, and are vegan friendly, grain free and gluten free. These can also be personalised, or standard, which is absolutely adorable.You get to choose from five different flavours, including bacon, beef, cheese, chicken or peanut butter, or, opt for unflavoured.

 

The idea is you give the card to your furry baby… but it’s a card for you… for them to eat… to make you happy… because they’re happy.

 

Contrary to popular belief, dogs can’t actually write cards to their owners (it’s got something to do with them having no opposable thumbs), so we’ve created the card that is actually for them.

 

And if you follow that, then you’re one hell of a devoted dog mum and this card is perfect for you, and your dog, but you also… and your dog.

 

All of our materials and packaging are recyclable and our cellophane wrapping is biodegradable. So we are good for dogs, and good for the planet too!
