Additional Information

Precautions  

• Not a complete meal: These treats are a holiday snack and should not replace your dog's regular balanced diet; use them in moderation alongside normal feeding.
• Check for peanut sensitivities: This recipe contains peanut butter; if your dog has a known sensitivity to peanuts, check with your veterinarian before use.
• Supervise while eating: Watch your dog while they chew, especially smaller breeds, to make sure the stick is being chewed adequately before swallowing.

Storage Information 

• Cool and dark place: Store the bag in a cool, dark place, out of extreme heat or direct sunlight between uses.
• Do not refrigerate: These treats should not be refrigerated once opened. Their natural composition can cause condensation to form in the fridge, which may lead to mold developing on the sticks.
• Reseal after each use: Close the bag securely after every session to limit air exposure and keep the remaining sticks fresh.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What ingredients are in these Thanksgiving sticks?

Ans: The full ingredient list is chicken, oat flour, flaxseed, sweet potato, coconut glycerin, pumpkin, peanut butter, salt, mixed tocopherols, cinnamon, coconut oil, organic apple cider vinegar, citric acid, and rosemary extract. Chicken is the first ingredient and the primary protein source.

Q2: What makes these different from regular Plato chicken treats?

Ans: This is a limited-edition holiday recipe. The Thanksgiving Dinner version adds pumpkin, sweet potato, cinnamon, and peanut butter for a seasonal flavor profile that the year-round chicken recipes don't include. It's formulated specifically for the Thanksgiving period and may not be available outside the holiday season.

Q3: Are these treats grain-free?

Ans: No. Oat flour is the second ingredient in this recipe, so it does contain grain. These sticks are not marketed as grain-free. If your dog requires a grain-free diet for medical or dietary reasons, this particular recipe is not suitable for them.

Q4: Can I refrigerate these treats after opening?

Ans: No. Do not refrigerate these treats once opened. The natural ingredients in this recipe cause condensation when stored in the fridge, and that moisture can lead to mold forming on the sticks. Store them in a cool, dark place at room temperature instead.

Q5: Are these treats naturally preserved?

Ans: Yes. The recipe uses mixed tocopherols, organic apple cider vinegar, citric acid, and rosemary extract as preservatives. There are no artificial preservatives anywhere in the ingredient list. Plato relies entirely on these natural preservation methods across their treat line.

Q6: Are these suitable for senior dogs?

Ans: The soft, chewy texture makes these easier to chew than hard biscuits, so they work well for older dogs that may have dental sensitivities or reduced jaw strength. Just keep the 47 kcal per treat in mind when adjusting portions for senior dogs that may be on lower-calorie diets.

Q7: Can these be broken into smaller pieces for training?

Ans: Yes. The soft texture allows it easy to break or cut these sticks into smaller pieces for training use. Breaking them down lets you reward more frequently during a session without giving your dog too many calories at once.

Q8: Does this recipe contain peanut butter?

Ans: Yes. Peanut butter is added in the ingredient list. If your dog has a known sensitivity or allergy to peanuts, do not use this treat without checking with your veterinarian first. For dogs without peanut sensitivities, the peanut butter contributes to the seasonal flavor profile of the recipe.
