The name of these dog treats explains it all: Blackdog Chicken Meat Balls are chicken that has been pressed into small balls and oven baked. The irresistible crunch comes from the baking process of these round chicken dog treats. It also helps to lock in the flavour and freshness. Chicken is a great source of lean protein, and it is lower in fat than other meats such as beef and pork. This makes it an appropriate treat for elderly and overweight dogs. These chicken dog treats are great for dog training, and because of their size, they can easily be put inside of a treat-dispensing toy.
