Singles Shrimp Treats

Verified Jun 14, 2026

Dog · Treat Cat · Treat All Life Stages All Breed Sizes

A single-ingredient, freeze-dried shrimp treat suitable for both dogs and cats. It provides very high protein with minimal fat and moisture, making it a light, crunchy option that can work well for pets who do best with simple, limited-ingredient snacks. Because it’s just shrimp, it’s also useful for owners who want to closely control what proteins their pet is exposed to.

KibbleLab Score
8.3 out of 10

This is a high-protein, single-ingredient shrimp treat that can be a nice choice for dogs or cats who do well with fish-based snacks or who need a very simple ingredient list. The freeze-drying process helps preserve nutrients and flavor without added preservatives or carbohydrates. It’s best used in small amounts alongside a complete and balanced diet, and not for pets with known shellfish or fish allergies.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Single-ingredient formula (shrimp only) is helpful for pets with sensitive stomachs or those on elimination or limited-ingredient approaches.
  • Very high protein content (minimum 82%) with low fat and low moisture, giving a nutrient-dense, lean treat option.
  • Freeze-dried whole pieces retain much of the original shrimp’s nutritional value and aroma, which many pets find very enticing.
  • Suitable as a treat or meal topper for both dogs and cats at any life stage, as long as their main diet is complete and balanced.

Considerations

  • Because this is a treat, it is not complete and balanced and should make up only a small portion of your pet’s daily calories.
  • Shrimp and other shellfish can be allergens for some pets; avoid this product if your dog or cat has had reactions to fish or shellfish proteins.
  • Very high-protein treats like this can be rich for some pets with certain medical conditions that require protein restriction, so check with your veterinarian if your pet has kidney, liver, or specific metabolic issues.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained

01
Shrimp
Shrimp is used in pet foods and treats as a lean, palatable animal protein and flavor enhancer that supplies high-quality amino acids and nutrients such as vitamin B12, selenium, phosphorus, small amounts of omega-3s and taurine (important for cats). While nutritious and often well-accepted by dogs and cats, owners should watch for shellfish allergies, high cholesterol and added sodium in processed products, and avoid shells or raw/undercooked shrimp to prevent choking and microbial or contaminant risks—choose cooked, deboned, responsibly sourced shrimp when possible.
