Pet Botanics Rolled Meat, Anyone Know Anything About It?
Filed under Care & Training Q&As
Is this “doggie salami” as good an idea as it looks to be to my untrained eye? I have a 2 1/2mo papillon puppy that doesn’t like hard, crunchy stuff all that well and I don’t want to put her on a wetfood diet, so I was thinking maybe mix a little in to make her more interested in her own food than the cats’. Also, kinda hard to house train a dog when she has no interest in the buiscuts offered as rewards.
Anyone have experience/input with the stuff? All the reveiws I looked at on the petsmart site were great, but they were also for large dogs. What do you think?

I use that and the Natural Balance rolls, which appear to be the same thing. Though I’ve read that they have too much sugar, I still use this stuff a lot as I’m always training and I don’t want my dogs to have stomach drama. If I only treated with stuff like lamb lung and liver, they’d have diarrhea all the time! These rolls are easy to handle (for them and for me) – I’ll cut up the whole roll into cubes so I always have something ready to go.
I also buy boneless/skinless chicken breast and boil it, and use that. Also deli roast beef (ask them to cut it very thick, and then cube that), and hamburger or ground turkey that I cook with an egg or 2 to make it stick together. I try to stay away from that really processed stuff (the fake bacon strips, etc) but my older dog loves that canine junk food, so he gets it occasionally!
Both of my dogs won’t take a biscuit for a training treat. The rolls are tastier, apparently! Good luck!
Hi! I give this Pet Botanics rolled meat stick to my two Pap’s! They just love it and it is so easy to store in the refrigerator after opening. I slice it thick and then cut into strips and then into cubes. They love it! I have been feeding this to my Pap’s since they were pups! My oldest Pap is now 5…Good Luck to you!
Misa M,
Feeding too much organ meat such as Liver, Kidney, and Lungs will give dogs diarrhea. Decrease the amount you’re giving them and limit it to once or twice a week.
