Antos Mini Bones Salmon

A treat named after salmon can still be built mostly from something else, and the honest way to check is to read what percentage the label actually specifies rather than what the name suggests.

Antos' Mini Bones in this flavour list meat and animal derivatives, cereals, vegetable derivatives, and fish and fish derivatives, of which 4% is specified as salmon meal. Like the rest of the range they're shaped into small bone-shaped pieces for training, and Antos publish a feeding guide by weight: under 5kg gets 13 pieces a day, 6-10kg gets 23, 11-25kg gets 46, and 26-35kg gets 59.

On the name. Salmon meal is specified at just 4% of the recipe — the rest is meat and animal derivatives, cereals and vegetable derivatives that aren't broken down any further on the label. That makes this a salmon-flavoured treat rather than a majority-salmon one, worth knowing if you're buying it specifically to limit other proteins.

Who it's for: dogs who enjoy a fish-flavoured training treat, in households that don't need salmon to be the dominant ingredient.
