The small print
- This treat hasn’t been reviewed by a veterinary nutritionist. Its kcal is arithmetic from food tables.
- A reward comes out of the day’s food, never on top of it: on a training day the bowl is a little smaller. A dog on a prescription diet, or with diabetes, pancreatitis or kidney disease, should have its rewards cleared with a vet.
