Small dog treats

When it comes to choosing the right treats for your small dog, the options can be overwhelming.

Whilst most dogs love a treat, small breeds will have less room in their diet than larger breeds. Plus, you’ll need to consider the size of treats for smaller breeds who have littler mouths! Whether you are training, rewarding, or simply indulging your small companion, picking the right option makes all the difference.

Here’s our guide on how to find the tastiest, nutritious, and safe treats for your petite pup.

 

Good Things Come in Small Packages

Small dogs may be tiny, but they have big personalities and even bigger appetites for delicious treats.

Choosing the right treat isn’t just about size – it’s about finding something packed with flavour while being appropriately portioned for their smaller mouths and stomachs.

The best treats for small dogs are designed to deliver maximum taste in a bite-sized package, making every reward satisfying and beneficial.

 

Small or Chewy Treats First

Small dogs often have delicate teeth and jaws, making soft and chewy treats a great option.

These treats are easy to chew, digest, and perfect for training sessions. Since small breeds can be prone to dental issues, avoiding overly hard treats that could damage their teeth is crucial.

Look for treats that are:

Made with quality ingredients

Free from artificial additives and fillers

Small in size or easily breakable

Pointer has an excellent range of smaller treats for your dog, including:

Our 400g Salmon Burgers – tasty wheatmeal dog biscuits with added calcium for healthy teeth and bones

Our 400g Puppy Love mix – which not only satisfy their taste buds but also make for an excellent training reward

Our BRAND-NEW grain-free Mini Dogs – deliciously meaty and full of flavour

 

Dental Chews for Healthy Teeth

Dental health is a significant concern for small dogs, as they are more prone to plaque buildup and gum disease.

Dental chews serve a dual purpose: they clean your dog’s teeth while providing a tasty and enjoyable experience. These treats are designed to reduce tartar and freshen breath, ensuring your pup’s smile stays healthy and bright.

When selecting dental chews, look for options that:

Are appropriately sized for small breeds

Contain natural ingredients and minimal preservatives

Have a texture that promotes plaque removal

Regular use of dental treats, along with routine brushing, helps maintain optimal oral hygiene. Our Sticks range is perfect for a long-lasting chewy treat that helps keep your dog’s teeth clean too!

No matter which treats you choose, always remember to feed them in moderation. Treats should complement a well-balanced diet and contribute to your dog’s overall health and happiness. With the right choices, your small dog can enjoy delicious, nutritious, and satisfying treats every day!
