| Zuke's Mini Naturals - Treats Has anyone heard of these treats? I saw them at PetCo and they look like the perfect size. I think they are pretty high quality but I was wondering if anyone has tried them? |

| We use them for training, but even as small as they are, for training I pinch them in half. Sadie likes them. They are kind of a medium level treat - for really high level I use something smelly like dried salmon or anchovies. She really loves those! |

| I have to use low fat treats and food because Trixie has pancreatitis. How much fat do they have? I have been gicing them dried chicken. Looks like a rawhide but it is all natural and 97% fat free. I give them a piece maybe everyother day. The ones you found sound great though.

They have 7% fat but only 2 calories per treat. The brand has lots of other treats, too - these just looked like the perfect size. I'm still housebreaking my 7 weeks old Daisy so I've been looking for a good small soft treat. I got some Wellness puppy treats but they are HUGE so I break off a bit and give to her when she goes pee pee. But I think they are making her poop runny which is NOT a good thing.

| I use these treats! They are really moist which make them good for training, plus most dogs prefer soft treats to hard. I use the chicken formula and Jimi loves them! Also, they work really well for potty training. After Jimi goes potty he races inside and to the area of the kitchen where I keep the treats and sits and waits for me to drop one. Such a smarty. The best part about Zuke's is that a percentage of the proceeds goes to the DCCF, which is the Dog and Cat Cancer Fund. So even though these treats can be a bit pricey, I feel good buying them and I'm sure Jimi thinks they are worth it.

| Mine love them. I break them up too. If I am doing a lot of training, I will cut them into 1/4's or even smaller. I just don't want them to fill up to easily.

| We use them. They are one of our favorites. We buy the big pound bags because we have three pups. So far we have tried the peanut butter, chicken, salmon and I think some sort of beef one. We also use the hip and joint treats (they are big in size but each pup gets one a day) and also the power bars when we take Lace hiking with us. The naturals are small but we still cut them in half.

| Piccolo and Vivi love these treats, too. And it has not been an issue with Piccolo's previous Pancreatitis, either.

| Grrr!! I got a bag of the salmon and Nick won't even touch it. Daisy will only eat them eveMar now and again. Maybe I'l get a different flavor or something. I hate buying food that they don't eat!!! |

| We LOVE these treats I didn't know they were selling them at Petco/Petsmart now. We get them at Crunchies where we get our dog food. |
