Important Note on Dog Treats

Dog treats are often given daily, but they’re one of the easiest places for lower-quality ingredients to sneak in. Many conventional treats include artificial preservatives, flavorings, fillers, and unnecessary additives. I look for options with simple, recognizable ingredients that support overall health without overcomplicating things.

What I Avoid

When choosing dog treats, I avoid:

  • Artificial preservatives like BHA, BHT, and ethoxyquin

  • Artificial flavors or colors

  • Low-quality fillers or byproducts

  • Excess garlic or onion

  • Carrageenan

Product Description

These are simple, crunchy dog biscuits made with a short list of recognizable ingredients. They use a base of barley and organic flours combined with peanut butter and beef broth to create a straightforward, minimally processed treat.

One unique aspect of these biscuits is the use of repurposed spent grains from breweries, which helps reduce food waste while still providing a functional ingredient base. These treats contain no alcohol or hops, despite being brewed.

The texture is firm and crunchy, making them easy to break into smaller pieces or use as an occasional reward. They’re designed to be simple, approachable, and easy to incorporate into your dog’s routine.

Ingredients

Barley, 100% natural peanut butter, organic rye flour, organic garbanzo flour, organic eggs, and beef broth.

What I Like

  • Very simple, recognizable ingredient list

  • Includes organic ingredients

  • Uses real food components rather than highly processed fillers

  • No artificial preservatives, colors, or flavors

  • Crunchy texture works well for treats or training

Things to Keep in Mind

  • Contains grains (barley and rye), which may not work for all dogs

  • Peanut butter should always be confirmed to be xylitol-free (this brand uses natural peanut butter)

  • Crunchy texture may not be ideal for dogs with dental sensitivity
