When to Choose Zuke's Mini Naturals Chicken Recipe
Trainers and active owners who need a low-calorie, high-value reward treat
Zuke's Mini Naturals are the gold standard for training treats — only 3 calories each, soft enough to eat quickly during sessions, and made with real chicken. The low-cal profile means you can reward frequently without guilt. The best training treat in this comparison.
Strengths
- Only 3 calories per treat — ideal for frequent training sessions without overfeeding
- Real chicken is the #1 ingredient with no corn, wheat, or soy
- Small, soft, and easy to break apart for precise training rewards
Limitations
- Soft texture means they can crumble and leave residue in pockets
- Contains chickpea and tapioca starch as binding agents
- Higher price per ounce compared to budget biscuit options
When to Choose Milk-Bone Original Biscuits Medium
Owners looking for the most affordable everyday treat that dogs love
Milk-Bone is the most recognizable dog treat brand for a reason — dogs love them and the price is unbeatable. However, the inclusion of BHA and grain-heavy ingredients puts it behind competitors on ingredient quality. A reliable budget option, but not the healthiest choice.
Strengths
- Lowest price point in this comparison — exceptional value per biscuit
- Fortified with 12 vitamins and minerals for supplemental nutrition
- Universally recognized and accepted by nearly all dogs
Limitations
- Contains BHA as a preservative — a common concern among health-conscious owners
- Corn, soy, and wheat in the ingredient list — not suitable for grain-sensitive dogs
- Higher calorie density makes portion control important for smaller breeds
