Farmland Traditions Jerky Dog Treats, 3 lb, Variety Pack, Soft & Tender

Chicken, beef and turkey from farms in the USA go into these jerky dog treats, which come as a 3 lb (1.36 kg) variety pack. The bag holds 48 ounces, and the manufacturer describes the treats as suitable for all breeds and sizes. Each batch is air-dried, and the recipe is free from corn, soy and wheat.

What goes into Farmland Traditions jerky treats?

Three proteins make up the variety pack: chicken, beef and turkey, all raised in the USA. The chicken jerky lists chicken, vegetable glycerin, pea flour, distilled vinegar, sea salt and rosemary extract as its ingredients, so glycerin and pea flour are part of the recipe alongside the meat.

Rosemary extract is the special ingredient the maker names. The recipe is described as grain-free and contains no corn, soy or wheat, and the company sources its ingredients entirely from USA farms.

How the jerky is made and served

The strips are gently air-dried in batches, which is the method behind their soft and tender texture. Farmland Traditions produces the treats in a kitchen in Southern California.

A strip can go to a larger dog as it is, or you can break it into smaller pieces for a small breed, so one bag covers dogs of different sizes. Reviewers mention that the jerky breaks into smaller pieces without much trouble.

What buyers say about the taste and texture

Several reviewers mention that their dogs love the taste of these treats, and a few note the simple ingredient list. Four reviewers describe the jerky as hard or tough rather than soft, which is worth knowing if you are buying on texture alone.
