Strong Choice
This is a fairly high-protein, moderate-fat treat that uses chicken as the main animal ingredient, with chamomile, passion flower, and L-theanine included for calming support. It’s best viewed as an occasional supplement-style treat rather than a major calorie source. It may suit otherwise healthy dogs who need a little extra help taking the edge off during stressful events, as long as total treat calories are kept in check.

Strengths
- Protein and fat levels are reasonable for a dog treat, so it can fit into most dogs’ diets in moderation.
- Includes chamomile, passion flower, and L-theanine, which are commonly used in calming supplements for dogs.
- Uses familiar grain ingredients like barley and oat flour, which generally agree with many dogs’ stomachs.
- Calorie content per treat is provided, which makes it easier to factor into your dog’s daily intake.
Considerations
- Chicken is present, so this treat is not a good choice for dogs with chicken allergies or sensitivities.
- At 21 calories per treat, portions should be limited, especially for small or less active dogs to avoid unwanted weight gain.
- This is not a complete and balanced diet, so it should only be used as a treat in addition to a regular dog food.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
Chamomile
Chamomile is an herbal botanical commonly used in pet supplements, treats and topical preparations as a mild calming, anti‑inflammatory and digestive aid rather than a primary nutrient source, with flavonoids and terpenoids that can help soothe gastrointestinal upset, skin irritation and mild anxiety in dogs and cats. It is generally safe in small, properly formulated amounts but can trigger allergic reactions in animals sensitive to the Asteraceae family, may interact with blood‑thinning medications, and concentrated essential oils or extracts should be avoided without veterinary guidance.

02
Passiflora Incarnata
Passiflora incarnata (passionflower) is a botanical ingredient used in pet supplements and calming treats for its mild sedative and anxiolytic properties rather than as a nutrient; it contains flavonoids and alkaloids that are thought to influence nervous system activity in dogs and cats. While it may help reduce mild anxiety or promote relaxation, evidence in pets is limited and it should be used cautiously—avoid combining with other central nervous system depressants, and consult your veterinarian before use in pregnant or nursing animals or pets on medications due to potential interactions and dosing concerns.
03
L-Theanine
L‑Theanine is a naturally occurring amino acid commonly added to pet foods and supplements as a calming/functional ingredient to help reduce stress and promote relaxation without sedation. It has shown promise in dogs (and to a lesser extent cats) for easing situational anxiety and improving calmness, but effects can vary, proper dosing is important, and owners should consult their veterinarian—especially if the pet is on medications or has health conditions—because it is an adjunct to, not a replacement for, behavioral training or medical treatment.
04
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.

05
Barley
Barley is a cereal grain used in pet foods primarily as a digestible carbohydrate and source of dietary fiber (including soluble beta‑glucans), along with modest amounts of B vitamins and minerals. It can support healthy digestion, help moderate post‑meal blood sugar and aid weight management in dogs, but provides limited protein for obligate carnivores like cats, must be cooked/processed for good digestibility, and may be unsuitable for pets with grain sensitivities or calorie‑restricted diets.
