When to Choose Wellness Soft Puppy Bites Lamb & Salmon
Puppy owners and small breed dogs who need grain-free, protein-rich training treats
Wellness Soft Puppy Bites deliver premium-quality ingredients at a surprisingly accessible price. The lamb and salmon dual-protein formula with DHA makes them ideal for puppies, but adult dogs love them too. The grain-free formula and strong safety record from Wellness make these a reliable choice.

- Enriched with DHA for puppy brain development
- Soft, small-sized bites perfect for puppies and small breed training
Limitations

When to Choose Blue Buffalo BLUE Bits Chicken
Training sessions where you need a soft, flavorful treat without grains
Blue Buffalo BLUE Bits deliver a solid mid-range training treat — real chicken first, grain-free, and soft enough for quick consumption during training. Past brand recalls ding the safety score, but the current formula is clean. Good value at $12 for a 19oz bag.
Strengths
- Real chicken as the first ingredient with DHA for brain health
- Soft, moist texture that dogs find highly appealing
- No poultry byproducts, corn, wheat, or soy
Limitations
- Blue Buffalo has had past recalls affecting brand trust
- Contains flaxseed which some dogs may have sensitivity to
- Softer texture means shorter shelf life once opened
