Vital Essentials Minnows Freeze-Dried Raw Dog Treats

I love these because they don’t really have any smell at all. The dog and one of my three cats loves them. (One cat is interested but slightly baffled by them, one cat was just never interested at all) You know who LOVED them though, is my aquarium fish! I don’t know if they’re actually nutritionally complete for the species I have so I use them as treats only, but my eclipse catfish gobble them up whole and my yoyo loaches push them all around the tank nibbling in them until they are gone These are basically a hit with my whole family :)

Got these for my dog, used one as a treat and she was initially interested in the smell...once she got it out she spit it out immediately...so I tried to give it to her again and she took it, walked away and set it down on the other side of the room and came back. We did that a few times before deeming these worthless. They smell terrible and I don’t really want to touch them, would have gotten over that if my dog had liked them at all!

A friend told me to buy them for my dogs, that they would love them. I was very skeptical about giving my dogs fish, but I bought some and tried them. My two dogs (German Shepherd and mutt) LOVE them. They beg for them all the time. And I feel good giving them treats that aren't full of empty calories.

This is a huge hit for my little guy. I like treating him with something so pure and healthy. These little minnows are easy for him to chew and something he is able to crunch. He doesn’t have all his teeth so his ability to crunch is compromised and these are great for him.

My pup loves when I reach for this bag and starts doing all his tricks to get a little minnow. They don't smell the best (as I fully expected) but are totally worth it seeing how happy he is when he gets one. And it's great that what you see is what you get in terms of ingredients.

These are great healthy treats. My Cattle Dog loves them. I tried giving to my cats but they didnt seem interested. Average sizes are from 1.5 inches to 2.5 inches. The whole fish is freeze dried. This is the first bag I have ordered. The fish are whole and unbroken making for no crumbly mess. They do have a bit of a fish odor but not strong.

These little Vital Essential minnows are the best things since canned soda. Not just the minnows, the turkey fries, the duck heads, the tripe, etc., etc. There is NOTHING my dogs have turned their noses away from by VE. These minnows are smelly little delights for them and excellent training treats. I think they just learned the jig.

He absolutely loves these treats. I usually break them into two or three but the bag comes FULL with somewhere between 50-80 minnows. They come in a good quality bag so there’s no fishy smell even with his treats on the kitchen counter. I read some reviews a where people’s came crumbed that was not the case with ours. Highly recommend!

i won't dock a star even though some of the cats don't like. the cats that do like are crazy for them. a product all cats like is something near an impossibility. if i get 50% or better acceptance i call it a winner

my baby dont like it very much. he kinda just carries it around and munch on it a tiny bit but he doesn't swallow any of it. I mean, yay single ingredient but he don't like it...
