Ever made yourself a cup of tea, looked over at your dog, and thought they seemed a bit left out of the fun?

No, us neither. But for that very niche problem, the people over at PG tips have come up with a solution: tea… for dogs .

Made in partnership with pet drinks company Woof & Brew, English Breakfwoof is a new type of tea just for dogs.

It’s been made in honour of International Dog Day, on August 26, but is now available for pre-order for £9.99 – with 100% of the profits going to the Support Dogs charity.

Did you hear that? Sound frequency is measured in Hertz (Hz). The higher the Hertz, the higher-pitched the sound. Dogs hear best at 8,000 Hz, while humans hear best at around 2,000 Hz.

What does a tea for dogs taste like, you may wonder?

The teabags are a blend of burdock, dandelion, flax, nettle, seaweed, and rooibos – and contain no caffeine or preservatives.

Technically, you candrink tea made from these teabags, too, but PG tips don’t reccommend it. That’s why they’re selling each box for dogs with a standard box of teabags for people, too.

Some notes on serving the special cuppa to your pup: you needn’t add any milk or sugar, no matter how you usually take yours, and the tea shouldn’t be served hot.

Rather than giving your pet a morning brew right after you pop the kettle on, instead wait for your dog’s tea to fully cool before serving up.

Use a teapot to rinse dogs off in the bathtub without getting water and soap in their eyes.

For best results, you can infuse the English Breakwoof tea overnight – just make sure to remove the bag before placing in your dog’s bowl.

The brand is only launching a limited number of boxes of the dog-friendly teabags, so if you are keen to give them a go, we’d suggest ordering a box sharpish.
