Strong Choice
This is a well-formulated, soft training treat with chicken as the lead ingredient and a mix of grains and fruit/vegetable components. The calorie content per piece is low, which is helpful for frequent rewarding. It does contain chicken and several carbohydrate sources, so it’s best used in moderation, especially for dogs with food sensitivities or those prone to weight gain.

At a Glance
KibbleLab Review
Strengths
- Chicken as the first ingredient provides an animal-based protein source dogs tend to find very palatable.
- Each treat is only about 2.3 calories, which is helpful for training or frequent rewarding without overfeeding.
- Includes a mix of grains and fruits like apple, blueberries, pumpkin, and sweet potato for added variety.
- Soft, chewy texture can work well for puppies, seniors, or dogs who have trouble with harder biscuits.
Considerations
- These are treats intended for supplemental feeding only and should not replace a complete and balanced dog food.
- Chicken is a common allergen, so this recipe would not suit dogs with chicken sensitivities.
- Carbohydrate sources like rice bran, sorghum, barley, and molasses add calories, so portions still need to be controlled for overweight-prone dogs.
- Contains natural flavor from yeast, which may not be ideal for dogs with yeast sensitivities.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
Chicken
Chicken is a common animal-based protein in dog and cat foods, supplying essential amino acids, B vitamins, and energy-dense fats that support muscle maintenance, growth, and overall health; for cats it also contributes toward dietary taurine but must be present in sufficient amounts or provided via supplementation. It is prized for its digestibility and palatability, though some pets develop sensitivities or allergies to chicken, and nutritional value and safety depend on ingredient quality and processing—raw chicken carries pathogen risks and whole bones can pose choking or GI hazards.

02
Rice Bran
Rice bran, the nutrient-rich outer layer of the rice kernel, is used in pet foods as a source of dietary fiber, energy-dense fats, and micronutrients (B vitamins, vitamin E and trace minerals) and can help improve palatability and stool quality. It can be a useful ingredient for dogs (and to a lesser extent cats) but is high in oil and can go rancid unless stabilized, contains phytates that may affect mineral absorption, and can concentrate contaminants like inorganic arsenic, so it should be sourced and processed carefully and not be relied on as a primary protein for obligate carnivores.
03
Sorghum
Sorghum is a cereal grain commonly used in pet foods as a source of complex carbohydrates, dietary fiber and modest plant protein, often chosen as a gluten‑free alternative to wheat or corn. It can provide fermentable fiber and antioxidant compounds that may support digestion and glycemic control, but is generally less digestible than some grains unless properly processed and certain tannin‑rich varieties can reduce nutrient availability, so quality sourcing and appropriate formulation are important—particularly for cats, whose diets should remain primarily animal‑based.

04
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.
05
Apple Pomace
Apple pomace is the fibrous by‑product left after apples are pressed and is used in pet foods as a source of insoluble (and some soluble) fiber, a mild carbohydrate, bulking agent and natural flavoring that can help firm stool and support intestinal transit. While it can benefit dogs by improving stool quality and adding fiber, its nutritional value is limited for obligate carnivores such as cats, and manufacturers should control inclusion levels because apple pomace is variable in composition, contains sugars, can dilute protein/energy density, and—if poorly processed—may carry contaminants or residual seeds.
