Our dog loves them
By BrooklynSteve on Apr 21, 2020
Stumbled upon a listing for these while looking for Merrick's beef lung, which they sadly seem to no longer make. Definitely a "high value" treat.

This is the good stuff
By Tatertot on Nov 8, 2019
My dog is extremely allergic to foods. I have tried so many different treats and her eyes run, her ears get infected, she chews on her paws. These treats are wonderful, there is nothing in them to cause her allergies to act up and she loves,them. They are hard to find but, once again, Chewy came through for me. Thanks so much for your good service.

Great Treats!
By Julie on Jan 20, 2020
I've been using these treats for years because they have minimal ingredients. The same treat comes in different proteins so I can rotate.

High value treat

Another Big Favorite!
By Stormie on Feb 9, 2020
My dog loves lamb and your treats! What a super idea to combine lamb with buffalo sausage. Thank you!

Love these treats!
By OdSkip on Oct 30, 2019
My dog doesn't tolerate chicken so these lamb & buffalo sausage treats are perfect for him. They are the perfect size for rewards for good behavior and he will frequently bring me items to receive a reward treat when he sees the bag on my side table!

His new favorite!
By penname on Feb 23, 2019
My little pup LOVES these treats. He was drooling the moment I opened the bag. The ingredients are great, too - they don’t upset his sensitive belly. These have become his new high value treats.

LOVE the ingredients - wish there was no dairy tho.
By Deborah on Dec 12, 2018 Top 25 Contributor
These appear to be excellent treats. The ingredients are minimal and healthy. I so wish my dog wasn't allergic to dairy as I know he'd love these, but the cultured skim milk included in the ingredients, although generally a very nutritious addition, makes them a no go for my boy. It's so hard to find food and treats that contain no chicken, egg or dairy - so many have at least one of these ingredients and often two. He is allergic to all 3 of these items so we use novel p[proteins for him and rotate proteins often to minimize risk of further allergies developing. Lamb and buffalo are great protein choices and two of his favorites.

Dog Would Not Eat Treat
By OwnerofScout on Oct 25, 2018
I have an 8 month old Goldendoodle that will eat EVERYTHING - literally. I was very excited to try this treat based on the ratings, however, when I opened the bag and tried to give our dog this treat multiple times, he spit out the treat each time. I then gave him two other soft/chewy treats that I received from Chewy and he scarfed them down. I don't know what it was about this treat, but it was $10 wasted. I would not buy again.

Meh not for us
By Rhondae on Feb 15, 2019
My dogs didn’t like these for some reason. So I guess we will try something else.
