Pros
- Chicken and rice. A simple combination many dogs tolerate well.
- Short recipe. Three components.
- Low fat. 3% per the card.
- No wheat or soy.
- Handy for rewards. Easy to break up.
- 80 g pack.
Cons and what to watch
- Doubtful analysis. 38% protein with 30% rice is unlikely — the whole TASTY series shows the same figures.
- Chicken. A common allergen in dogs.
- Oral hygiene claim. The treat will not replace brushing.
- Moisture and daily amount not stated.
Why the figures do not add up
Rice is a carbohydrate source with little protein. A treat with 30% rice would usually have less protein than a pure meat one. Yet the card gives chicken with rice the same analysis as the 98% duck fillet and other flavours: 38% protein, 3% fat. Most likely the figures were copied across the line. If exact protein content matters for your dog, check the pack.
Chicken and rice for the stomach
Boiled chicken with rice is a classic "bland" meal for dogs. A treat with this combination is usually well tolerated by dogs without a chicken allergy. But it is still a treat, not a therapeutic diet: if your dog has an upset stomach, pause treats and see a vet.
How much to give
All treats together should stay under 10% of daily calories. A small dog needs only a small piece, a large dog more — with less main food. More in excess weight in dogs.
For training
The treat is easy to break into small pieces and give right after a command. Chicken is a familiar taste that motivates most dogs. Tips are in treats for dog training.
Teeth and chewing
The treat keeps a dog busy and may remove some soft plaque while chewing, but it does not provide full hygiene. That requires brushing — more in how to brush a dog's teeth.
Safety and storage
Give the treat under supervision and break it up for small dogs. Sorbitol in large amounts can loosen the stool. After opening, close the pack tightly and keep it in a cool, dry place.
Other TASTY flavours
If your dog cannot have chicken, the series has single-protein TASTY duck fillet and TASTY lamb strips, as well as the twisted duck and cod stick.
Who it suits
The treat suits dogs without a chicken allergy that like a simple familiar flavour — for rewards and training. It does not suit dogs allergic to chicken or those whose protein intake must be tightly controlled. Other snacks are in dog treats.
Verdict
Croci KingDelice TASTY chicken thighs with rice is a treat of 68% chicken and 30% rice with a short recipe. The downsides are an analysis on the card (38% protein) that does not fit the rice share and matches the whole series, chicken not suiting every dog, and an oral hygiene claim that should not be taken literally.
