Strong Choice
This is a meat-forward, cold-pressed treat that should work well as an occasional reward for most dogs who tolerate beef. The recipe combines beef with rice flour and pumpkin, giving a mix of protein, fat, and a bit of fiber. It’s intended as a supplemental treat rather than a balanced food, so it should be fed in moderation alongside a complete diet.

Where these benefits come from
Benefits the manufacturer highlights in its own product marketing. KibbleLab lists them for reference and does not verify these claims.KibbleLab Review
Strengths
- Beef as the first ingredient provides a palatable animal protein source that most dogs enjoy.
- The protein and fat levels are fairly substantial for a treat, making it more nutritious than many simple cookie-style snacks.
- Pumpkin adds a bit of natural fiber, which some dogs tolerate well in small amounts.
- Uses mixed tocopherols as a preservative, which helps maintain freshness without synthetic additives.
Considerations
- This is not a complete and balanced diet and should only be used as an intermittent treat with a regular dog food.
- Dogs with beef allergies or sensitivities should avoid this treat since beef is the main ingredient.
- At about 32 calories per treat, portions need to be limited, especially for small dogs or dogs prone to weight gain.
- Contains added salt and honey, so it is best used in moderation and not as a large part of the daily calorie intake.

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
Rice Flour
Rice flour is a finely milled carbohydrate ingredient commonly used in pet foods as a digestible energy source and as a binder or thickener in kibble, treats, and wet food formulations. It is generally well tolerated by dogs and cats and low in fat, but offers limited protein and essential amino acids (so it should complement animal protein sources), can increase dietary glycemic load which may be relevant for diabetic or weight‑management pets, and may carry low levels of inorganic arsenic depending on sourcing and processing.
03
Beef Broth
Beef broth is commonly used in pet foods and toppers as a savory flavoring and moisture enhancer to boost palatability and encourage hydration, and depending on preparation can contribute small amounts of protein, minerals and gelatin-derived collagen. Care should be taken because commercial broths are often high in sodium and may contain added ingredients (onion, garlic, spices, preservatives or sweeteners) that can be harmful to dogs or cats, so choose low-sodium, pet-safe formulations and avoid if your pet has a beef allergy or sodium-sensitive condition.
04
Honey
Honey is used in pet foods and treats primarily as a natural sweetener and binder, supplying simple carbohydrates for quick energy but contributing negligible protein, fiber, or essential vitamins. Raw honey contains antioxidants and may have mild antimicrobial or prebiotic effects, but because it is high in sugar and can worsen obesity, dental disease, or diabetes—and may carry microbial contaminants—use should be limited (and avoided in very young or immunocompromised animals); consult your veterinarian before offering honey to pets, especially cats (which are obligate carnivores and gain little benefit) or diabetic animals.

05
Coconut Glycerin
Coconut glycerin is a plant-derived glycerol used in pet foods as a humectant and mild sweetening/texture agent to retain moisture, improve mouthfeel and palatability, and serve as a solvent or mild preservative in soft treats, toppers, and wet formulas. It provides easily metabolized calories and is generally safe for dogs and cats in small amounts, but high levels can cause gastrointestinal upset or laxative effects, so manufacturers should ensure purity, account for added calories, and note that it is not the dog-toxic sweetener xylitol.
