Vital Essentials Freeze Dried Raw Single Ingredient Dog Treats, Beef Liver, 2.1 oz

We use these as the "special treat" for our dog. He LOVES them. No digestive issues, good size treats so it takes us awhile to go though them - some freeze dried liver treats are BIG chunks that are actually difficult for our rat terrier mix to chew through. At $6 a bag, this a good value for us. This is a good size bag for us too so we don't have to worry about transferring treats to another bag or transporting a large bag when we go somewhere.

At $32 I thought the bag would be full. Less than half a bag. Never again.

I absolutely love this treat because it has only one ingredient: 100% beef liver. That simplicity gives me so much confidence in what I’m feeding my dog, since I know exactly what he’s getting without any fillers, additives, or hidden ingredients. For me, ingredients always come first—my dog is the love of my life, and his health and happiness mean everything to me. The treat has a clean, natural smell, just like real beef, which immediately grabs my dog’s attention. Because it’s freeze-dried, the texture is light and airy, making it easy to break into smaller pieces for training rewards or quick snacks. At the same time, it’s not overly flaky, so I don’t have to worry about leaving behind messy crumbs on the floor or in my pockets when I carry them on walks. What I also appreciate is the versatility: I can feed the pieces directly, crumble a bit over his kibble for an extra boost of flavor, or even rehydrate them with a splash of warm water if I want to make it softer. The color looks natural—rich brown with no artificial tinting—which reassures me that it’s minimally processed. My dog absolutely goes crazy for these every time. His excitement tells me how much he enjoys the taste, and I feel good knowing that it’s a healthy, protein-rich option that supports his energy and overall well-being. Out of all the treats we’ve tried, this is easily one of the healthiest and most reliable, which is why I keep repurchasing it. Highly recommended for pet parents who want a clean, nutritious, and mess-free treat that dogs genuinely love.

These are by far the favorite treats of my dogs. You will be doing a subscription because running out and not having another package on hand is like the world ended. They are perfect size for small-medium dogs. They don't break very easily with my fingers (when I'm trying to break one in half) but by the time you get to the bottom of the bag there's lots of crumbs from pieces that have broken off.

Best single ingredient treats for your dog. If you’re looking for an healthy alternative this is excellent.
