5.0 out of 5 stars My Dogs Gave This a 10/10 Before I Even Opened the Bag

Turns out, my puggles had other plans. These little snack bandits smelled the treats through a sealed bag, teamed up like a canine SWAT unit, and launched themselves up to the counter to stage a full-blown heist.They ripped open the package and each grabbed a treat and ran in opposite directions like they’d trained for this. The only reason I managed to salvage the rest of the pack is because these chews are long and thick enough that they had to actually stop and work on them. Thank you, treat design.I still have no idea what they smell like—sealed bag smells like nothing to me—but clearly these are the truffle equivalent of dog snacks. If your pups are food-driven masterminds like mine, maybe store these on a high shelf. Or in a vault.Highly recommended by two very determined puggles. Also, recommend by one puggle momma who gets some peace and (safe) quiet while the boys are busy working on their snacks.

Look, I don't know what magic Vital Essentials put into these freeze-dried turkey giblets, but my dog now thinks I'm some kind of snack deity.Before giblets:Dog ignores me unless I say the word “walk,” “squirrel,” or “cheese.”After giblets:Dog sits in perfect posture, makes extended eye contact, and performs unsolicited tricks like he’s auditioning for *America’s Got Talons*.I dropped the bag once and he INHALED five pieces like a goblin with a Costco membership.He then proceeded to stare at me like I owed him rent.I’ve never seen him love anything this much. Not even me.I could fake my death and he’d mourn for like 2.5 minutes — unless he heard the giblet bag crinkle, in which case: resurrection who?**Pros:*** Instant obsession* Makes you feel powerful* Ingredients aren’t horrifying**Cons:*** You will never eat in peace again* Your pockets now smell like medieval poultry* The dog now judges *your* snacksBuy the giblets. Accept your fate. You are now *the Treat Giver.* 🦃

5.0 out of 5 stars I’ll never use another brand

I am subscribed to these and 2 other vital essentials products (hard nib entrees and beef liver) to the point I feel like I give all this company my monies. But I will say that my pets BEG for these products. Their teeth are cleaner for sure, they have more energy at even 25% raw. I do run out with a quickness and wish they would sell the chicken breast in a larger 1 pound bag like some of the other products so they would last longer, but vital essentials quality is unmatched, limited ingredient and consistent thickness and quality every time. sincerely appreciated by 2 cats and a dog

5.0 out of 5 stars Wow Best Brand for Freeze Dried Raw Chicken Hearts

C. · May 28, 2025

Glad I found this brand of freeze-dried Raw Chicken Hearts. They smell fresh compared to other popular brands and all my dogs love this brand.Small bag however and with several dogs, it doesn't last long. So I find this item to be a bit pricey.Because they are fresher, they are not so dehydrated or tough. The hearts cut easily as I have little dogs and want to stretch them out. All my dogs can chew this brand well, even the older one with limited teeth. They are the right size too for chicken hearts, just saying.Overall, this is a very healthy, nutritious treat and I feel good giving it to them. Seems to keep their coats shiny.Great value for the price, just a bit pricey.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good healthy treat

Over all these are a nice healthy alternative to big brand cat treats. I was hesitant to try freeze-dried foods because I had heard that cats were often off put by the texture, but gave it a shot anyway and I’m glad I did. She loves these little things and asks for some very time I’m by the cabinet they are in. I’ve got a little treat toy that she has to figure out how to open and before these she was never motivated enough to try but how she’ll empty it in 10 minutes. Will definitely be ordering other foods from this brand.Only con is they seem to have a powdery residue to them and there kind of small but that doesn’t seem to bother her.

5.0 out of 5 stars Puppy loves them!

I have purchased the beef liver a few times now. My puppy loves them! I think they're great for puppies because the pieces are small. Since they're freeze dried, they're pretty easy for puppies to eat. Occasionally a some pieces are bigger than others, but they're mostly small and the same size. Sometimes I'll cut them in half just to make them last a little longer, and it works out because they are a little thick. They do have a smell to them, but nothing to be concerned about. They're great to use for training as well!

5.0 out of 5 stars Dogs and cat love these!

I use these every week at my dog training class. These are very handy and come in little bite sized pieces. I’ve bought other brands and the size of the pieces weren’t even close to uniform. There were tiny pieces and huge pieces. Not so with this. I can just reach in and grab a treat and I know it will be the appropriate size. My dogs love them and so does the cat (which was a surprise).

My pitti mix loved these! She would snub her other treats to get these. Small, bite size, good for training or small treats here n there. Their were plenty in bag, lasted longer than I expected as much as she ate them.

Tres bonne friandise ... mais très dispendieuse

(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } Mon chien adore mais la quantité versus le prix a fait qu'après deux commandes je me suis mis a la recherche d'une friandise a ronger qui dure plus longtemps. Peux être pour un chien moins gourmand que mon pug.

The crunch my cat was looking for!

L. · June 17, 2024

I use these every so often as a topper for my cats food, and he just loves them! I know you’re not supposed to feed fish 24/7 so I keep it to a couple times a week as a treat.

Cats say Delicious!

H. · May 6, 2024

Not exactly sure why these are such an amazing price right now ($14.49) as they regularly sell for $26 but my two bags arrived today. I immediately ordered two more at the same price. I have five cats who are crazy about these! Can confirm the correct size bag did show up. (3.75oz) Best before 2026.

New favourite
