In my humble opinion, the Pet Pride dog treats haven’t completely won me over just yet. I have a golden retriever named Bella and she’s somewhat fussy when it comes to treats. Sure, they’re affordable and easily accessible at local grocery stores, but the size is a bit too small for larger breeds like Bella. It doesn’t keep her engaged as much as I would like.
Now, instead of Pet Pride, I’ve found success with Rover’s Roast beef cubes. They’re made from real meat and no artificial fillers, significantly larger in size, and Bella can’t resist them! And while they are a bit pricier, the ingredient list alone sold me – it’s worth my pup’s happiness.
But does anyone else have fussier dogs? Maybe it isn’t about the treat size but what’s inside them that counts? Thoughts?
I totally get where you’re coming from. I’ve tried Pet Pride dog treats for my Lab, Max, and initially, he wasn’t too excited about them either. However, I noticed that these treats are quite large in size. Did you try breaking them up into smaller pieces for your Golden?
Just a little trick that’s worked for me – I also mix it in with their regular food as a fun surprise and Max seems to like the change! Honestly, for the price, I think they’re decent.
Does anyone else mix treats with their pup’s regular food? Or have more tips on encouraging our fur buddies to enjoy new treats?
I agree that Pet Pride isn’t the best option out there. Despite their fairly affordable price, the treats are pretty large size-wise. My Pomeranian, Lily, struggles to chew them properly which was a bit concerning for me. I had to chop them into smaller pieces to make it easier for her. So perhaps if you have a smaller breed like mine, this might not be a good pick unless you’re willing to do some extra prep work. I’ve found that Zuke’s Mini Naturals works well for smaller dogs and they really seem to enjoy them too. Always worth checking with your vet before changing diet though!
I must admit, I’m aligned with the consensus here. Pet Pride dog treats aren’t a smash hit in my household either. They’re quite small, which may be okay for bite-sized training rewards but not so appealing for larger breeds like my German Shepherd, Bella. Furthermore, their durability isn’t noteworthy; Bella chomps them down in seconds flat! Although they’re indeed pocket-friendly, I’ve shifted to premium brands that offer more substantial and lasting treats. My advice would be to opt for these if you have smaller pups or for quick reward-based training sessions; anything beyond that might leave your pet unimpressed. Just curious though, anyone else find these treats particularly oily? It could just be me, but I’ve observed oil stains in their storage area – surely can’t be good on the long run.
As always, consult your vet in case you notice any irregularities after introducing new food items to your pet’s diet.
I resonate with most of the sentiments here regarding Pet Pride dog treats. Just speaking from my personal experience, I initially bought them for my Golden Retriever Bella due to their reasonable price. However, I noticed Bella wasn’t particularly excited about them like she is with other treats I’ve used before. Also, I found these treats somewhat on the large side which can be difficult for smaller breeds to chew. Always consider your furbaby’s size and preferences when picking out dog treats! If you’re looking for an affordable alternative without compromising quality, Cloud Star’s Tricky Trainers have been a hit with Bella. Although it’ stll best to double check with your vet what works for your pup.

I completely see where you all are coming from. Bought a pack of Pet Pride treats for my golden retriever, Charlie, thinking I was getting a bargain. However, Charlie would turn his nose up every single time. They just seemed too hard for his preference compared to our usual soft treat selection. He’s not typically too picky when it comes to snacks but with these Pet Pride treats – it was a total miss! For those trying to save a some cash on dog treats, I’d suggest spending a little bit more on known quality brands or even making homemade treats. It can save you the hassle and your dog might appreciate the extra effort too!
Adding my Two Cents on Pet Pride Dog Treats
I agree with the general consensus here, Pet Pride Dog treats didn’t quite hit the mark in our household either. Bought a pack as an experiment and my Labrador, Spot, seemed initially interested but soon lost his enthusiasm. The treats are an okay size for larger breeds, but I felt they lacked some flavor appeal or crunch factor. Perhaps, they would be more suited to smaller dogs without such advanced flavor preferences? The price is undoubtedly appealing though! If you’re finding these treats aren’t doing the trick, maybe try switching it up with a variety of flavors and textures from other brands? As always, keep an eye on their reaction to any new product. You know your dog best and if there’s any sort of negative reactions, consult a vet pronto.
Adding my Two Cents on Pet Pride Dog Treats
Well, don’t even get me started on Pet Pride Dog treats! I’ve had an interesting experience with these myself. I own two large breeds so the size of the treats was a big plus for me right off the bat. The treats are hearty and definately durable – my dogs chewed happily for a good fifteen minutes on one treat alone.
That being said, I noticed they gave my dog quite the stinky breath afterwards. Tried to train them to drink some water after munching, but you know how stubborn dogs can be sometimes haha!
Anyone else’ dogs got stinky breath after these or just mine? Wondering if it’s something in that flavor mix… Anyway, back to nightly teeth brushing routine it is!
Remember folks, no matter how much our pets love a particular treat, always keep an eye out on any changes it may cause. And when in doubt, never hurts to consult your trusted vet!
My Thoughts on Pet Pride Dog Treats
Hey folks, just wanted to chip in here on the Pet Pride Dog treats discussion. I’ve been buying these for my Golden Retriever, Charlie, for about a year now, and he absolutely loves them. The size is pretty substantial – perfect for a larger breed like mine and they hold up well during his chew sessions.
Charlie can sometimes be quite picky with his food, but these treats are always a hit. I love the variety and the price point is definitely a big plus!
I do advice to always supervise your dog while they are enjoying these treats though, especially if you have a heavy chewer or smaller dog. They’re pretty sturdy, but there have been one or two instances where Charlie managed to obliterate one in no time flat.
Just remember everyone- although our furry friends may love certain treats or foods, it’s always a good idea to vary their diet and not rely solely on things like this. And of course, check with your vet if any concerns pop up!
Curious to know how do other pet parents balance treat time? Would love any suggestions!
I’m with you on the Pet Pride treats love-fest! My Rottweiler, Max, acts like a puppy every time he sees me opening a bag. It’s great that they’re so affordable too; I don’t feel like I’m breaking the bank spoiling my big guy. As much as Max seems to adore them tho, I’ve noticed some of the treats are a bit inconsistent in size – some seem almost double than others. Has anyone else noticed this, or is it just me? mabye it’s part of their charm… adds an element of surprise for Max I suppose!
Absolutely agree! Those Pet Pride dog treats are a real winner in my household too. My Labrador, Benny, completely adores them – he’s actually starting to respond to training better because he knows one of these treats is coming his way as a reward. They’re just the right size for him and are price-friendly which I love.
Got a funny anecdote to share; Benny usually ignores his old chew toys now that these treats have become his ultimate favourite. Ever since introducing him to Pet Pride, anything else is deemed second-rate. Who knew upgrading treats could make me suddenly realize how much stuff we’ve accumulated for him over time but never used.
Out of curiosity, anyone tried the Chicken & Sweet Potato variant? How did your fur babies take to it? Remember, if your dog has any food allergies or dietary restrictions, always consult your vet before trying new products!
Absolutely on board with the Pet Pride dog treats love train here! My pair of mischief makers, Beagle named Benny and Golden Retriever called Goldie, are absolute suckers for them. The size of the treat is perfect for both of them, not too big for Benny and not too small for Goldie to feel like he’s chomping on air.
They’re long-lasting treats – durable enough to survive an enthusiastic gnawing session. The price point makes it even better; quality and affordability don’t often go hand in hand, so I definitely appreciate that.
Here’s my little story: just the crinkle of the Pet Pride treat bag gets them racing from anywhere in the house, tails wagging like crazy. It makes a great motivator during our training sessions too.
If you’ve got dogs who are food motivated (like mine!) try incorporating these treats into their ‘find it’ game – they’ll surge around the house like there’s no tomorrow. Just remember moderation is key! Too many treats can lead to chubby puppies 🙃
Anyone else using these treats for games or training? Let’s swap stories!
Oh yes, those Pet Pride dog treats are a hit for sure. I have a four-year-old Sheltie named Finn who simply cannot resist them! What I love the most is the size – they’re perfect for Finn’s smaller mouth and he doesn’t struggle to chew them, unlike some other brands we’ve tried. Plus, the ingredients list doesn’t send me into a panic (you know what I mean!), so it’s a win-win in our house. One tip though: make sure to seal the bag tight after each use or they may get a little tough. Anybody else notice this?
Couldn’t agree more with all of you! Pet Pride dog treats have become a staple in my household, too. I’ve got a Siberian Husky who’s a bit picky about her snacks, but she took to these like a duck to water. Plus, the price point is absolutely spot-on without compromising on quality.
For anyone skeptical: Luna, my Husky, was particularly fond of the chicken flavor and it’s become her reward of choice for obedience training. The trick works wonders in making an otherwise headstrong breed more compliant haha. Only minor quibble is that the size can be a tad large for smaller breeds or puppies so I’d recommend breaking them apart if you have a little one or maybe try their mini treats range. Anyone else use these treats for training? It would be interesting to know how it worked out for your fur buddies.
Though I have to give props to Pet Pride for their affordability, my doggo Chester seems to prefer Zesty Paws’ Aller-Immune Bites. These treats are a bit larger, but they have this chewy texture that keeps the big man occupied for a while. It was quite the switch though – we transitioned slowly from Pet Pride, introducing a couple of Zesty Paws treats at first to see how he would react. Anyone else tried tossing their pup a Zesty Paw now and then? Love to hear your experiences!
