Shepherd Boy Farms freeze-dries the hearts in-house on its Indiana farm, and both dogs and cats can eat them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat the chicken heart chunks bring to the bowl\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe single ingredient is chicken hearts, so the chunks carry the flavour and chew of that cut rather than a blended dough. Each piece is a chunk, which suits a quick hand-fed reward or a scatter across the floor during play.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFreeze-drying is the method used here in place of traditional dehydration, and the maker describes it as gentle. The same process happens in-house, and the maker says the hearts go in and come out with nothing added or removed, apart from the water the freezer draws off, which is what leaves the pieces dry and firm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe recipe is grain-free and gluten-free, which matters if your dog's food has to avoid both.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo additives appear on the ingredient list, which names chicken hearts only.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe chunks also work as a mixer or topper folded through a regular meal.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTRT-CHICKENHRT-3ozV2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eItem form\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChunk\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eTarget audience\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003edogs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecial ingredients\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChicken Heart\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eIngredients\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eChicken Hearts\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSize\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3 Ounce (Pack of 1)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDimensions (L x W x H)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e22.9 x 15.2 x 7.6 cm \/ 9 x 6 x 3 in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWeight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e86 g (3 oz)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eUnit count\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3 ounce\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecial features\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFreeze-Dried, Single-Ingredient\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow the treats fit into a day of feeding\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eShepherd Boy Farms packs the chicken hearts as a treat and also lists them as a mixer or topper for regular meals, so a handful can sit on top of kibble or be stirred through it.
