Their nutritional needs can be met by&nbsp;eating a combination of meats and plants.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dogs need enough protein in their diet to survive. This is because protein provides necessary amino acids dogs cannot make on their own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So whether your dog\u2019s food is vegetarian or animal protein-based; as long as they\u2019re getting a balanced diet with a proper amount of protein for their age, activity level, and body weight, that\u2019s all that matters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information on the math behind the protein requirements behind a healthy dog\u2019s diet, check out the charts in&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nap.edu\/resource\/10668\/dog_nutrition_final_fix.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">this PDF<\/a>&nbsp;from the National Academies of Science, Engineering, and Medicine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Dog treat protein sources<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/WP_Protein-Chicken_calliethebritt_2.jpg\" alt=\"freeze dried dog treats. how much protein do dogs need\" class=\"wp-image-15184\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re like a lot of pet parents, you want to know what\u2019s the \u201cbest\u201d treat for your dog. After all, you don\u2019t want to feed your dog the equivalent of Twinkies!\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But it can be difficult. There are so many high-protein <span style=\"font-size: revert; color: initial; font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, &quot;Segoe UI&quot;, Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif;\">treats filled with a laundry list of ingredients and by-products that may not be good for your dog.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You don\u2019t want that!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Plus, some dogs have <a href=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/pet-parenting\/dog-food-for-sensitive-stomachs\">sensitive tummies<\/a> or food allergies. This means you may want to stick to limited-ingredient treats for your fur-kids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Spoil yours with our limited-ingredient, high-quality protein dog treats made up of only salmon, beef, or chicken and a natural preservative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We started Wholesome Pride so dogs everywhere could enjoy tasty treats that are sustainably produced and as close to farm-fresh as possible. Our treats will meet both your pup\u2019s nutrition needs and happiness level!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Protein-based dog treats<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Limited-ingredient dog treats are great because you know exactly what you\u2019re feeding your pup. The first ingredient is the protein itself! There are no heavily processed fillers like corn or wheat that are difficult for some dogs to digest, and our protein-based dog treats are non-GMO.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take these raw&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/2-3-oz-raw-freeze-dried-salmon.html\">freeze-dried salmon treats<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s no doubt that wild-caught Alaskan Salmon is a healthy choice. Good quality salmon contains Omega 3 fatty acids \u2014 those \u201cgood fats\u201d that have gotten so much press in recent years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These \u201cgood fats\u201d are three separate fatty acids with the scientific names of Alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). Plus, they are only 4 calories per treat!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, like people, dogs benefit from variety in their diets. High-quality&nbsp;crude protein is a source of essential amino acids that your dog needs to build healthy muscles. Beef liver is an excellent source of iron, copper, and vitamins like niacin and zinc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So to mix it up, you can try tasty raw\u00a0freeze-dried beef &amp; liver protein dog treats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>These treats are made of North American beef, beef liver, and mixed tocopherols (a natural preservative). Our Beef Protein Dog Treats are less than 2 calories per treat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018And dogs love beef as you know. If you ever grill steaks, you know how your dog will sit right there waiting for an \u201caccident.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chicken is another quality protein source that dogs love. It\u2019s a lean protein good for building muscle mass and, like beef, is a great source of amino acids. Wholesome Pride\u2019s USA cage-free\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/2-3-oz-raw-freeze-dried-chicken.html\">raw freeze-dried chicken dog treats<\/a>\u00a0will give your dog something to bark about at only 5 calories per treat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2>&#8220;High-value&#8221; dog treats<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>These limited-ingredient dog treats are what dog trainers call \u201chigh value,\u201d meaning, they\u2019ll grab (and hold) your dog\u2019s attention. If you\u2019re in training mode, these are especially perfect because your dog will be eager to focus to get his reward. High-value treats give your dog tunnel vision and block out other distractions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These training treats are&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/product\/raw-freeze-dried-dog-treats\">raw freeze-dried<\/a>, so they\u2019ll provide more nutrients than baked treats and stay fresher longer. Raw freeze-dried preserves more nutritional content than baking or dehydrating, as proteins, vitamins and minerals remain intact through the process. Plus, the freeze-drying process makes the product safe for humans to handle, unlike frozen raw foods.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/outwardhound.com\/furtropolis\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/beefwp.jpg\" alt=\"beef liver dog treats\" class=\"wp-image-16190\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2>How much protein does a dog need?
