Ostrich Jerky Treat

Verified Aug 23, 2026

Dog · Treat Small

This is a high-protein, low-fat ostrich jerky treat for dogs, made from 100% ostrich trim and wood smoked for flavor. It’s designed as a quick, crunchy chew that can work especially well as a high-value training reward. The single, novel protein source may be useful for dogs with food allergies to more common meats when you need a simple, limited-ingredient treat option.

Top Pick

Nutritionally, this is a very lean, protein-dense single-ingredient meat treat that can suit many dogs, including those watching their fat intake. Using only ostrich makes it a nice option for dogs with allergies to common proteins when choosing treats to match their diet. As with any rich meat treat, it should be fed in moderation alongside a complete and balanced main diet.

Nutritional Perspective

KibbleLab Review

Strengths

  • Made from a single ingredient, 100% ostrich trim, which keeps the formula simple and easy to understand.
  • Very high protein and relatively low fat, which can work well for many dogs needing lean treats.
  • Ostrich is a novel protein for most dogs, which may help when managing food allergies or sensitivities.
  • Smoked, firm, crunchy pieces can be motivating as a high-value training reward.

Considerations

  • This is a treat, not a complete diet, so it should only make up a small portion of your dog’s daily calories.
  • Because it is rich in animal protein, some dogs with sensitive stomachs may need it introduced gradually.
  • Ostrich is still an animal protein, so it will not be suitable if your dog is on a strictly vegetarian or vegan regimen.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained

01
Ostrich Muscle Meat
Ostrich muscle meat is used in pet foods as a high-quality, novel animal protein—lean and rich in essential amino acids—often featured in limited‑ingredient or hypoallergenic formulas for dogs and cats. It supplies iron and B vitamins and is lower in fat than many red meats, but novel proteins can still trigger allergies in some animals, muscle meat alone must be balanced or supplemented to form a complete diet (cats also need adequate taurine), and raw feeding carries pathogen risks unless handled and prepared safely.
