Nutritious & Easy
By TeeGee on Nov 28, 2021
I love using Chewy as my dog’s food supplier. The service is impeccable, and they carry a wide variety of products. I love the ease of using the freeze dried meats because they are nutritious and easy to give to my dog; and she likes them very much. I also get my large bag of the dry dog food from Chewy and again, there are many different brands and recipes from which to choose. I would always recommend Chewy to anyone looking for great services, selection, and value.

Great for training treats

good training treats
By dotncoopsmom on Nov 15, 2021
I use these for training treats rather than a normal meal for my dogs. They love this so much. The ingredients are simple and the bag is huge. One bag lasts for quite a bit for my two dogs. I sometimes put 3-4 pieces in their food just as some extra treats. My dogs love Vital Essentials!!!

My dogs love them
By Treats on Nov 30, 2021
These are the perfect training treats and my dogs love them. They are very nutritious and not full of a lot of garbage ingredients like many other less expensive treats. My dogs will do just about anything for these treats.

Good stuff
By MJam on Sep 29, 2021
These were recommended to me by a dog trainer. They’re easy to carry in a pouch and dry to the touch (just freeze dried beef). They’re not just treats but are high quality food and my dog loves them. I reduce his regular food accordingly. The price seems a bit high at first but since they’re freeze dried you actually get a lot and they last a while.

Yummies for my pups
By Laurie on Jun 15, 2021
My dogs love these. I originally bought these to help train a new puppy, but my two other dogs fell in love with these. They are small and crunchy, easy to put a few in your pocket or backpack. One of my dogs is a very fussy , older pup and she laps these up .

The less ingredients the better when it comes to treats, so of course I love that they are healthy for our dogs. We use them for agility training.
