Healthy Treats For Your Dog

I'm always on the lookout for healthy treats for my spoiled dog Lily. She's tried Nutro Crunchy Natural Biscuit Dog Treats and Old Mother Hubbard P-Nuttier Natural Dog Treats. This week, we'll review Red, White and Blue Crunchy Dog Biscuits baked with oats and apples from Blue Buffalo.

Patriotic All Year

I'm guessing that these Red, White and Blue biscuits were intended for the 4th of July (the United States' independence day for our non-American readers) but they're available all year long. Lily has loved fruit flavored treats in the past so I had high hopes for this apple and oats snack.

So Are They Healthy?

I'm no dog food health expert but most of the ingredients in the ed, White and Blue Crunchy Dog Biscuits are things that I recognize: oatmeal, barley, apples, flaxseed, carrots, cinnamon, some other grains and chicken meal. There don't seem to be many filler ingredients here which is good.

Apple of Lily's Eye?

Lily didn't have much to say when I asked her if these treats were tasty. (She's cute and affectionate but not much of a conversationalist.) The scent of apple is noticeable upon opening the package which I take as a good sign.

Verdict

My canine friend is excited to eat the Red, White and Blue Crunchy Dog Biscuits so it's safe to say she gives it two paws up! If you're looking for a healthy and natural treat for your dog, try Red, White and Blue Crunchy Dog Biscuits baked with oats and apples from Blue Buffalo.
