Highlighted Reviews
"All my dogs love these and we have 13 dogs 4 different breeds and not a single allergic reaction! Some are allergic to chicken so this is a great alternative. I wish there were more bag size options but I’m super pleased with these treats. Highly recommend"
"Above all else, Rick loves his duck feet. Unfortunately, the Barkworthies Smoked Duck Feet were too... greasy/smoky for him. Between a regular dehydrated duck foot and the Barkworthies Smoked Duck feet, he opted for the regularly dehydrated one without hesitation."
Bottom Line
