Buying Guides

Picking a treat shouldn't take a research project. These guides sort our lineup by what your dog actually needs — a puppy learning to sit, a senior with fewer teeth, a dog who can't do chicken — so you can skip the scrolling and get to the good part.

Guides by need

Best Training Treats for Puppies

Small, soft, and low-calorie, because you'll hand out dozens in one session. Soft Wonder Nuggets and crunchy Bits, both sized for a puppy's mouth.

Best Treats for Dogs with Allergies

Single-ingredient treats — one thing to react to, or rule out. No chicken on this list, since it's one of the most common food allergens in dogs.

Best Chicken-Free Dog Treats

Fish, duck, and crab-based treats for dogs who need to skip the poultry aisle entirely. Every Wonder Nuggets flavor qualifies.

Best Fish Treats for Dogs (Skin & Coat)

Wild-caught cod, salmon, haddock, and whitefish — naturally rich in omega-3s, and a lot easier to hand over than a supplement.

Best Soft Treats for Senior Dogs

Fewer teeth shouldn't mean fewer treats. Soft, chewy, and gentle on a mouth that's done a lot of chewing over the years.

Best Treats for Small Dogs

Designed small from the start — not a big dog's treat cut into pieces. Bits, Shorties, and mini tubes.

Best Made-in-USA Dog Treats

Made in America, most of it in small batches at our kitchen on Boston Fish Pier. U.S.-raised and wild-caught ingredients throughout.

Best Single-Ingredient Treats for Cats
