Pup perfect

These one ingredient treats satisfy with a bit of crunch and taste. Every time I take them out the pup comes running. He loves munching them down

Granted even though it is labeled for dogs I bought a bag for my cat who LOVES chicken neck from another brand. Upon opening it smelled like old rancid oil. And my cat who literally eats everything that’s put in front of him would not touch it. If you are looking for freeze dried chicken neck, go with Raw Paw’s. Theirs look and smell VERY different from Vital Essential’s and my cat gobbles up.

Easy snack and all protein and cartilage

My dog goes crazy for these and gobbles it up in 3-4 bites. Thankfully don't need to be worried about big pieces causing a choking hazard as they immediately break

My dog goes crazy for these and gobbles it up in 3-4 bites. Thankfully don't need to be worried about big pieces causing a choking hazard as they immediately break apart.

Tasty treat, just doesn’t last very long for my guys!

My dogs love these. Unfortunately, they practically inhale them, whereas I was hoping they would take their time to eat them. I like them because they never upset

My dogs love these. Unfortunately, they practically inhale them, whereas I was hoping they would take their time to eat them. I like them because they never upset my dog’s stomachs. There are quite a few necks in the bag. Which is good, because they are on the pricey side. Which is the only reason for 4 stars instead of 5.

Great for jaw and dental exercises

Our cat loves chewing on bones, so we always get the dog version of this neck bones as it’s cheaper than their smaller cat version even though the ingredient is
