Strong Choice
Nutritionally, these are well-formulated treats that provide animal protein from beef and turkey, along with some beneficial extras like salmon oil, flaxseed, and small amounts of fruits and veggies. The fat and calorie content are on the higher side for a small bite, which makes them tasty and useful for training, but they should be fed sparingly, especially for dogs prone to weight gain. Overall, they’re a good-quality option for owners looking for a soft, chewy reward rather than a complete diet.

At a Glance
KibbleLab Review
Strengths
- Beef and turkey appear high on the ingredient list, providing named animal protein sources rather than vague meat ingredients.
- Includes salmon oil and flaxseed, which supply omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, and these are reflected in the guaranteed analysis.
- Contains small amounts of carrots, sweet potatoes, blueberries, apples, and plant extracts that can offer natural antioxidants and flavor.
- Soft, bite-sized format with about 11 calories per treat, making them practical for training when portions are controlled.
Considerations
- This product is intended only for intermittent or supplemental feeding, so it should not replace a complete and balanced dog food.
- Beef and turkey are both common protein allergens for some dogs; if your dog has known sensitivities to these proteins, another treat would be better.
- At 16% minimum fat and roughly 11 calories per small piece, dogs who are overweight or prone to weight gain may need these limited carefully.

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
Potato
Potato is commonly used in pet foods as a digestible carbohydrate source and functional binder, supplying starch, fiber, and modest amounts of vitamins (B6, C) and potassium—often included as cooked or dehydrated flakes, starch, or protein concentrates. While it provides energy and helps formulate grain‑free recipes, potatoes are not a primary protein for dogs or cats (and are not nutritionally required for obligate‑carnivore cats), can contribute to excess calories or affect blood glucose in diabetic animals, and must be cooked and free of green skins or sprouts to avoid solanine toxicity; allergies are uncommon but possible.

03
Turkey
Turkey is commonly used as a primary animal protein in dog and cat foods, offering highly digestible, high‑quality protein and supplying essential amino acids along with B vitamins, phosphorus and zinc to support muscle maintenance and metabolism. Its fat level varies by cut so products can be lean or richer; some pets may develop allergies to poultry, cooked bones are hazardous, raw meat carries bacterial risk, and owners should rely on balanced commercial formulations (and ensure adequate taurine for cats) if turkey is a main ingredient.

04
Vegetable Glycerin
Vegetable glycerin is a plant-derived humectant and sweet-tasting solvent commonly used in pet foods and treats to retain moisture, improve texture, dissolve flavorings or vitamins, and enhance palatability. It provides usable calories, is generally regarded as safe for dogs and cats in typical amounts, but excessive intake can cause digestive upset and may be a consideration for diabetic pets or those needing calorie-restricted diets.
05
Guar Gum
Guar gum is a soluble plant-derived fiber commonly used in pet foods as a thickener, stabilizer and emulsifier to improve texture, moisture retention and prevent separation in wet foods, gravies and coatings. It provides little nutritional value beyond soluble fiber—which can help stool consistency and modestly slow digestion—but excessive amounts may cause gastrointestinal upset or affect nutrient absorption, so it is used at controlled low levels and is generally considered safe for most dogs and cats.
