What to watch for
- Glycerin Low risk
A sweet-tasting liquid that keeps soft treats moist. EFSA considers it of low safety concern; it adds calories without nutrients. - Salt Low risk
Salt supplies sodium and chloride, which dogs need. Pet foods use small amounts; high salt is mainly a concern for dogs with heart or kidney disease. - Natural flavor Low risk
Flavoring from natural sources. Normally safe, but the term can hide which animal or plant it came from, which matters for allergies. - Smoke flavor Low risk
A smoky taste for treats, used in small amounts.
What it does well
- Named meat first
First ingredient is chicken.
Ingredients
Chicken, Pork, Ground rice, Vegetable Glycerin, Dried Cane Syrup, Distilled Vinegar, Salt, Natural Flavors, Natural Smoke Flavor, Colored Paprika
