When to Choose Old Mother Hubbard Classic Original Mix
Budget-conscious owners who want a simple, no-nonsense everyday biscuit
Old Mother Hubbard delivers a straightforward oven-baked biscuit with recognizable ingredients at an unbeatable price. The crunchy texture provides mild dental benefit, though the wheat and corn base means it is not ideal for grain-sensitive dogs. A solid everyday treat for the price.
Strengths
- Simple, recognizable ingredients with no artificial preservatives or colors
- Oven-baked crunchy texture helps with dental maintenance
- Excellent value at under $9 for a 20oz bag
Limitations
- Contains wheat flour and corn meal — not grain-free
- Higher calorie density per biscuit than soft training treats
- Limited protein variety in the original mix formula

- Unique toothbrush shape reaches back teeth for thorough cleaning
- Highly palatable — most dogs treat these as a reward, not a chore
Limitations
- Higher calorie count per chew (139 kcal for regular size) — not low-cal

- Premium price per treat compared to standard biscuit options
