perfect treat
Flavor Name: Bone (S), Size: 6 Count (Pack of 1)
These are very limited ingredients treats and perfect size for a small dog but the cat likes them too. these are perfect size and shape for a little distraction so you call get a lil break. I have order couple bags and never passed day and color and quality look very fresh and peace knowing it is safe for my dog. These is no harsh chemical smell more like opening people turkey jerky. they are a lil pricey but for six pretzel or rings seem to be durable and gives me peace of mind . i highly recommend these for small dogs but the also have a wide assortment for bigger dogs . I highly recommend due to my positive experience.
