Our Experience With Chippin

We received Chippin Smokehouse BBQ Pumpkin & Cricket dog treats. The packaging for the treats was brightly colored with easy-to-read directions and ingredients. The packages were also made from recyclable materials which like the products themselves are better for the environment. The ziplock enclosure was another great thing. It was clear the treats could be kept fresh for my fur babies!

When I opened the bag I didn’t notice a tempting smell. Honestly, I barely noticed any aroma at all. Whitey was the first dog I offered the treats to. Whitey is our bulldog mix. He is roughly 50 pounds and pure muscle. He loves to play, but he also loves to eat. When he saw something new, he was ready to give it a shot. I will admit, the first introduction went a little slow. He took the treat, wiggled it around in his mouth a bit, then dropped it. I sat down with him and broke it into a few pieces. Once I did that, he took the first piece immediately. Of course, he liked it. He immediately reached for my hand and took the rest of the treat with no issues. From that point on, each time he saw the bag, he knew what it was and he sat down and eagerly awaited one for being such a good boy.

Our little girl Jazzy is the complete opposite of Whitey. She’s a 7-pound chihuahua mix who is very picky when it comes to her food. I tried to give her the Smokehouse BBQ Pumpkin & Cricket treats the same way I offered them to Whitey. She wouldn’t have anything to do with it. However, I know my little girl well. She’s older and doesn’t like change. Instead of going the treat route, I used it as a food topper. It took her a few minutes, but finally she gave it a try. After a few days of her eating with the treats mixed in with her regular dog food, I tried to offer her one as a treat. She took it immediately. That’s when I knew she liked the flavor.

If Chippin Smokehouse BBQ Pumpkin & Cricket dog treats can make my stubborn older lady sit at attention for a treat then it’s clear they have a taste dogs will love. Unfortunately, when it comes to Whitey, I can’t really say too much. He loves food in general. If it has meat, including cricket protein, he’s going to try it out.
