"The Boyz loved it! Love the ONE ingredient treats. Definitely recommend"

β€” Marie

"Just received my box of treats for my 50lb, 6mos pup! This stick is so thin and flimsy that I can literally break it with my hands, without much force. I would have sent a pic but I gave stick to my pup and from the time it took me to walk from the kitchen to write this review, less than 5 minutes..."

Bottom Line

Although dogs generally love the taste, the high price and low durability make these treats less appealing for frequent use. If you’re looking for a quick, enjoyable treat your dog, these might suffice, but for a long-lasting chew, consider other alternatives.
