Common Questions

Are these treats good for small dogs?

While some small dogs enjoy them, the large size and hardness can make them difficult to chew or break into smaller pieces, especially a chewer.

Are these treats high in protein?

Yes, they are high in protein and suitable for dogs requiring specific dietary needs.

Do these treats work as training aids for puppies?

The treats are stuff that most dogs love but dieticians will advise you against them. Unfortunately, this heightens the calorie intake which can make other training goals more difficult as a result of over-feeding in goofball puppies.
