If your dog is watching their weight but still needs training treats, these are the answer. Sweet potato provides bulk with fewer calories than most ingredients, and using just a small amount of chicken gives them enough meaty flavour to be interesting. They're specifically designed to be tiny and low-calorie, so you can train extensively without blowing the diet.
