VitaKraft Yogurt Drops...HELP :) - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

magsmom · 08-17-2010, 06:46 PM

My little Maltese was the same way! Vitacraft yorgurt drops were the first treat that I could buy that she loved! I then (after buying a second bag) read the ingredients~ SUGAR was the first ingredient, plus lots of other potentially hazardous, not to mention unhealthy ingredients. No wonder she liked the things! I threw away the rest of the bag and have never bought any since. She hasn't missed them and now eats healthy treats like whole life chicken (ingredients are easy to read because there is only one, freeze dried chicken), and dr. becker's bison bites, plus a couple others. I have to say my dog's favorite treat, which can also be fed as a food by itself when away from home, or powdered over the food of a finicky eater, is the Nature's Variety freeze dried raw medallions. They LOVE them! Good luck!

thanks so much for your thoughts. Were do you buy these treats from? I have never heard of them and would love to give them a try. I feel so bad about the yogurt treats and not paying more attention to them. Lexi will be 2 years old in November and has had them most of her life...what a bad mommy

thanks again....hugs Cheryl & Lexi

Oh Cheryl, you're a good mommy! I get them at a local store, Paws Around Town. They have a website, www.pawsaroumdtown.com and there is a 1-800 number on there. Even if it's not on their site, they can ship it. Their shipping fees are only the cost of the shipping itself (not extra handling fees) and arrives quickly. Good luck. They can be so picky! I love the single ingredient treats like the hocken and bison, but i also love the NV treats!

sorry....what do you click on once you are on the website??
Is it pawsaroundtown.com?

Nope! No need to refrigerate. Kindam like how astronauts have freeze dried ice cream and stuff. The dr. Becker treats 'snap' when you break them into pieces almost like a chip. The other two freeze dried can be broken off into small pieces and are so soft they can be powdered when pinched.
