It's only recently that I've been reading about the kind of chemicals and harmful products dog and pet foods can have, I know, ignorance is bliss, right?
But, better late than never. Having adopted a more intentional and holistic self-care routine for myself, I thought it was time to do the same for my pet dog as well.
I have a Pekingese who is 9 years old. He is white in colour and the most docile being on the face of planet earth.

Why I really like this doggie treat over any other treats out there in the market?
I like a well-behaved dog, and I believe in positive reinforcement. Every time my dog does something good and puts forth excellent behaviour, I reward him with these treats. He loves them, and mind you he's a very picky, and fussy eater.
I used to feed him Jer-High Salami, which now I've stopped as I've found a better and natural alternative.
The Packaging and Labelling
It comes packaged in a what-looks-like a brown paper bag, but on the inside, it has a plastic seal-in for preserving the food contents. Because of this plastic lining, even if you drop water on it, the food inside is safe. Which is a good thing, but overall, plastic is bad for the environment.
I'm trying to use less and less plastic in my life, but somethings such as these become unavoidable. I do believe in recycling, and I will recycle this bag to keep my dog's grooming essentials in it.
As far as labelling goes, I love the job that has been done. The instructions, the manufacturing date, shelf-life, use before, and all other important information is properly labelled in a reasonably large font.
Nutritional Information is also provided on the back. Over-all the packaging feels down-to-earth and natural, minus the plastic inside. But I understand why it could have been necessary to have some plastic in there.
The Nutrition
Now, let's talk nutrition. Dogs need proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals for a healthy body. These treats contain protein and fat and are actually a good source of these two macro-nutrients. Along with that, these 100% natural doggie treats contain turmeric which helps boost immunity.
So I believe it's a win, for my dog. Every-time I feed him this treat, he is happy, and his nutritional needs are also taken care of.
Will I buy these treats again?
Definitely! My Pekingese really likes them, and they are high-quality treats that don't harm my dog's health.
Where can I get these treats from?
You can get these 100% natural chicken liver treats from Amazon or the Heads Up For Tails Store.
