Choosing the Right Natural Dog Treats
Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about choosing and using dog training treats.
Fast, low-fat treats that break into small pieces work best for training, since they need to be eaten quickly without breaking a dog's focus. Single-ingredient options like kangaroo are popular for repetition-heavy sessions.
Treats are small and quick to eat, ideal for training and everyday reward. Chews last longer and suit dental support and calm, focused engagement rather than rapid repeat rewards.
Natural, single-ingredient treats give a clearer picture of what your dog is eating, without fillers, artificial preservatives or added sugar. A good starting point for sensitive stomachs or known allergies.
As a general guide, treats should make up no more than around 10% of your dog's daily calories, with the rest from a balanced diet. Check with your vet for advice specific to your dog.
Single-ingredient, novel protein treats such as kangaroo are often a safer starting point for dogs with suspected food sensitivities. Introduce any new protein gradually and check with your vet first.
Puppies generally need smaller, softer treats that are gentle on a developing digestive system. Age-appropriate sizing matters, and introducing a novel protein early can help avoid future sensitivities.
