Top Pick

Nutritionally, these are very solid training treats with a meat- and organ-based formula and a nice boost of added vitamins and minerals. The calorie content per piece is quite low, which makes them practical for frequent rewards without adding too many extra calories. They’re a good fit for most healthy dogs as high-value training treats, as long as your dog tolerates beef well.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Beef, beef lung, and beef liver provide rich, animal-based protein and naturally occurring vitamins and minerals.
  • Relatively high protein and moderate fat for a treat, making each piece more nutritionally dense and satisfying.
  • Includes flaxseed and salmon oil, which contribute omega fatty acids that support skin, coat, and overall health.
  • Free from grains, corn, wheat, and soy, which can be helpful for dogs that don’t do well on those ingredients.

Considerations

  • Contains beef and fish (salmon oil), which can be problem ingredients for dogs with known beef or fish allergies.
  • With a fairly high fat level for a treat, portions should be limited for dogs who are prone to weight gain or have a history of pancreatitis, even though each treat is only about 2 calories.
  • Air-dried treats are quite nutrient-dense, so it’s important to factor them into your dog’s daily calorie allowance, especially during heavy training periods.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained

01
Beef
Beef is commonly used in dog and cat foods as a primary animal protein and palatability enhancer, supplying high-quality essential amino acids, B vitamins, iron, and zinc that support muscle maintenance and overall health. Owners should note beef can be calorie- and fat-dense and is a relatively common allergen, and raw or improperly handled beef carries microbial risks, so formulation, fat content, and sourcing/processing are important considerations.

02
Beef Lung
Beef lung is an organ meat commonly used in pet foods and treats as a highly palatable, protein-rich ingredient that is relatively lean and easy to digest. It supplies B vitamins, iron and trace minerals but is not a complete diet on its own, so it should come from reputable sources and be properly processed to reduce pathogen risk and monitored for individual food sensitivities.
03
Beef Liver
Beef liver is an organ meat commonly used in dog and cat foods and treats as a highly palatable, protein-rich, nutrient-dense ingredient that provides concentrated, bioavailable vitamins (especially vitamin A and B12), heme iron, copper, and essential amino acids. While it supports blood health and overall nutrition, beef liver should be fed in moderation because excess vitamin A can cause toxicity, its richness may upset sensitive stomachs or contribute to pancreatitis in predisposed pets, and proper sourcing/processing is important to minimize contaminant or bacterial risks.
04
Dicalcium Phosphate
Dicalcium phosphate is an inorganic mineral supplement commonly added to dog and cat foods to supply concentrated, bioavailable calcium and phosphorus for healthy bone and teeth formation as well as general metabolic processes. It must be used in balanced amounts (typical Ca:P targets ≈1:1–1.4:1) because improper ratios or excess phosphorus can contribute to skeletal problems in growing animals and worsen conditions like chronic kidney disease, so formulation and dosing should be carefully controlled.
05
Flaxseed
Flaxseed is used in pet foods as a plant-based source of alpha‑linolenic acid (ALA) omega‑3, soluble and insoluble fiber, and modest protein, often added to support skin and coat condition, digestive health, and kibble texture; ground seed or flaxseed oil is more digestible than whole seed. Dogs can partially convert ALA to long‑chain EPA/DHA but cats convert ALA poorly and therefore still need marine sources for essential DHA/EPA; flax is calorie‑dense, prone to oxidation if not stabilized, and contains lignans (phytoestrogens) and trace cyanogenic compounds, so it should be processed and used in moderation.
