When to Choose Jiminy's Crunchy Treats Original Recipe
Eco-conscious owners and dogs with common protein sensitivities
Jiminy's is the most innovative treat in this comparison — cricket protein delivers complete amino acids with a fraction of the environmental impact of traditional meat. The novel protein is a genuine option for allergy-prone dogs. Not every dog will love the taste immediately, but the sustainability story and ingredient quality are compelling.
Strengths
- Cricket protein is highly sustainable — 2,000x less water than beef production
- Novel protein source ideal for dogs with common protein allergies
- Clean ingredient list with no artificial preservatives or fillers
Limitations
- Cricket protein is unfamiliar to most dog owners — adoption hurdle
- Some dogs may reject the flavor profile initially
- Smaller 5oz bag means higher cost per ounce
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
