When to Choose Stella & Chewy's Grass-Fed Beef Carnivore Crunch

Premium-focused owners who want single-ingredient, grass-fed, freeze-dried raw treats

Stella & Chewy's Carnivore Crunch represents the pinnacle of ingredient quality — single-ingredient, grass-fed beef, freeze-dried raw. The sourcing transparency and nutritional preservation are best-in-class. The eye-watering price per ounce is the only real knock, but you truly get what you pay for.

Strengths

  • Single-ingredient: 100% grass-fed beef with no fillers, additives, or preservatives
  • Freeze-dried raw process preserves maximum nutrition and flavor
  • Responsibly sourced, cage-free, grass-fed beef from trusted supply chain

Limitations

  • Expensive per ounce — $14.99 for only 3.25oz
  • Freeze-dried texture crumbles easily and creates mess
  • Small bag size means frequent repurchasing for heavy treat users

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
