Pure Meats Salmon Freeze-Dried Treat

Verified Jun 4, 2026

Dog · Treat Cat · Treat All Breed Sizes

A simple, high-protein freeze-dried salmon treat made from 100% salmon for dogs and cats. The very high protein and moderate fat content make it a rich, meat-based option that can be used as a reward, occasional meal, or meal topper to boost palatability and animal-sourced nutrients. Because it’s a single-ingredient product, it can also work well for pets who do best with limited-ingredient treats.

KibbleLab Score
8.4 out of 10

This is a high-quality, single-ingredient freeze-dried salmon treat that provides very concentrated protein and animal fat for dogs and cats. It’s best used as a treat or topper rather than a sole diet, and can be especially useful for pets needing a simple ingredient list or extra palatability added to their regular food. As with any rich, meat-based treat, portions should be moderate, particularly for pets prone to pancreatitis or weight gain.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Single-ingredient formula (100% freeze-dried salmon) is excellent for pets needing simple, limited-ingredient treats.
  • Very high protein (70% min) and moderate fat (10% min) from an animal source provide highly bioavailable amino acids and essential fatty acids.
  • Freeze-dried processing helps preserve nutrients and flavor while making the product shelf-stable.
  • Suitable for both dogs and cats and versatile as a treat, occasional meal, or topper to enhance palatability of regular food.

Considerations

  • Not a complete and balanced diet, so it should not replace a formulated dog or cat food as the primary daily nutrition.
  • Salmon is a common protein allergen for some pets, so this would not be appropriate for animals with known fish or salmon allergies.
  • The relatively high protein and fat levels mean it should be fed in controlled amounts, especially for pets with a history of pancreatitis or those needing strict calorie control.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained

01
Salmon
Salmon is commonly used as a high-quality animal protein and rich source of omega‑3 fatty acids (EPA/DHA) in dog and cat foods, supporting skin and coat condition, joint and cognitive health, and overall muscle maintenance. While very nutritious, salmon can be an allergen for some pets and raw salmon may pose risks from parasites, thiaminase-related thiamine loss, and region-specific pathogens (e.g., salmon poisoning); owners should avoid feeding uncooked bones and consider sourcing to minimize contaminant and sustainability concerns.
