A training treat that crumbles into a hundred tiny pieces when you pinch it is more useful than one that stays intact and has to be bitten through, because speed matters more than size in a training session. Popped corn does exactly that by its nature, before anything is added to flavour it.

This one is made from corn, rapeseed oil and cheese, popped into a light, crunchy puff rather than a dense biscuit. Analysis comes out at 15.5% protein and 18.5% fat, with the low density making it a genuinely low-calorie option piece for piece.

• Corn, rapeseed oil and cheese, three ingredients
• Protein 15.5%, fat 18.5%, crude ash 1.5%, crude fibre 3%
• Light, crunchy popped-corn texture
• Not suitable for puppies under 3 months old
• Shelf life 12 months, stored cool and dry
• 55G tub

One thing worth knowing. This is described as an ideal low-calorie treat, but no specific calorie figure is given on this card, so if you're counting calories precisely for a dog on a managed diet, that number isn't one we can confirm here — go by the analysis figures instead, or check with the tub itself.

Who it's for: owners doing frequent training who want a treat that's easy to break down small, and anyone looking for a lower-fat option than a typical baked biscuit.
