On "100% gluten free."

That claim is consistent with the ingredients — no wheat, barley or rye on the list — but it isn't a grain-free bar, because corn starch is in there too. More importantly: Hollings' own feeding guidance says these are not suitable for puppies, dogs with poor teeth, or elderly dogs, which rules out a good few dogs that training treats usually go to.

Why we chose it

At 386 kcal per 100g these go a long way in a training session without needing a huge bar, and being genuinely gluten free rather than just labelled that way is worth something. The "not for puppies or elderly dogs" line on the pack is easy to miss, so it's worth saying plainly.

— Matt, founder

Full description

Training treats live or die on how quickly they tear into ten pieces without losing a dog's attention in the process.

These are chicken bars — 78% chicken with 12% dried carrot — sold as a pack of 7. They're calorie-dense compared with most training treats, at 386 kcal per 100g, and Hollings label them gluten free, though there's corn starch in the mix as a binder.

On "100% gluten free." That claim is consistent with the ingredients — no wheat, barley or rye on the list — but it isn't a grain-free bar, because corn starch is in there too. More importantly: Hollings' own feeding guidance says these are not suitable for puppies, dogs with poor teeth, or elderly dogs, which rules out a good few dogs that training treats usually go to.

Who it's for: owners of an adult dog with good teeth doing training work who wants a calorie-dense, gluten-free treat — not for puppies, elderly dogs, or dogs with dental problems.
