Vital Essentials Freeze-Dried Raw Dog Treats vs Stewart Chicken Liver Freeze-Dried Dog Treats

Both are single-protein, US-made freeze-dried liver treats, so the choice comes down to protein and format. Vital Essentials uses beef liver with a higher minimum protein (65% vs 60%) and a larger bag, and its 4.5 rating from 24 owners backs it. Stewart is 100% chicken liver with added vitamin and mineral figures on the label and a resealable tub. Pick by which protein your dog tolerates and whether you want a bigger bag or a tub.

• Choose the Vital Essentials if your dog does well on beef, you want the higher protein minimum and a larger bag, and you like a brand with a track record of owner ratings.
• Choose the Stewart if your dog does better on chicken, you want a resealable tub and a label that lists iron, zinc and vitamin A levels.
