Newman's Own Organics premium dog treats

Okay, have any of you heard of these treats? I found them today, and got the peanut butter flavor. Here's the ingredients list...barley flour, ground chicken, carrots, apples, peanut butter, flax seed, canola oil, rolled oats, sesame seeds, sunflower seeds, natural peanut flour, natural flavor. So what do you guys think? I am almost tempted to taste one myself :lol: I have been trying to find some good treats for George, but most of what is available around here is junk. Also, would raw carrots be a good treat? Will pups even eat raw carrots. I know, some of them will eat anything. We have so many bags of treats in the kitchen now....so far George really likes these though. Just wanted everyone's opinion of if these would be good for him. Or if anything in them is really bad for him. Thanks guys!

They're good treats. Natural and not full of fat and other junk. I only wish they came in bigger bags and were a little cheaper-- with 3 dogs, we burn through a bag in 3 days!

Carrots are excellent, too. Since Fatty Fatty Fatpants gained weight, he's been getting carrots instead of treats most of the time and Bear thinks they're a hot item now, too. I need to get Clyde on the scale to see if helped. :roll:
They aren't too bad at the commissary here on post, $2.69 for a 10oz bag. Cheaper than some, more expensive than some others. I almost took a bite of one a minute ago, just for poos and giggles, cuz they don't sound like they would be that bad :lol: Some of those treats, phew, they are questionable!
Some of the Wellness ones are really good too. They smell great, like peanut butter and other yummy stuff.
I picked some up a while back when they were on sale at Whole Foods. I don't usually shop there so it was totally random. The dogs really like them and I like the small size. They are perfect for training and for Miss Piggy who must get one whenever the youngster does something :D
Bingley loves carrots as well as bits of apple. Good luck with the treats!
Nummy, nummy!!!! These treats sound very nutritious, and tasty as well. Our first sheepie, Quincy, munched on raw carrots and apples, and they made great treats for him as he was hypothyroid.

Since having Oscar though, with all his digestive issues, I learned from our holistic DVM that raw fruits and veggies can be difficult for a dog to digest, as they are a complex carb. They were too much for Oscar's system, so we no longer give them to him.

If George doesn't have digestive issues, the raw fruit and veggies should be a great treat. Just remember, no grapes, raisins, raw onions or raw garlic, as they can cause severe, life-threatening illnesses in canines.

I just love the name George! (In a Greek family, we are crawling with them!!!! :D )

Laurie and Oscar
