Be Good Bites Grass-Fed Beef Treats

Dog · Treat Puppy Adult Senior Small Medium Large

A soft, chewy beef-based dog treat made with grass-fed beef as the primary ingredient and supported by grains like rice bran and sorghum. It’s designed as a low-calorie training or reward treat for dogs of any age, not as a complete diet. The small bite size and moderate protein and fat make it easy to use frequently without adding too many extra calories.

KibbleLab Score
9.3 out of 10

Top Pick

This is a thoughtfully formulated training-style treat with beef as the first ingredient and simple supporting grains. At about 2.4 calories per piece, it can work well for frequent rewarding without heavily impacting daily calorie intake. It’s a good fit for most dogs, as long as they don’t have beef or grain sensitivities and are still getting a complete and balanced main diet.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Beef as the first ingredient gives a clear, animal-based protein source for good palatability.
  • Very low calories per treat make it easier to use often for training or rewards.
  • Soft, bite-sized texture is convenient for puppies, small dogs, and seniors with dental issues.
  • Simple ingredient list without artificial colors or flavors is helpful for dogs needing fewer extras.

Considerations

  • This is not a complete and balanced food, so it must be fed alongside a balanced main diet.
  • Contains beef, which can be an issue for dogs with beef allergies or sensitivities.
  • Includes grains like rice bran and sorghum, which may not suit dogs on grain-free regimens.
  • Protein level is modest for a meat-based treat, so it is more of a light reward than a high-protein snack.

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 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.
View ingredient
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.
