We hadn’t heard of Grandma Lucy’s before our friends at Chewy offered us the opportunity to review them. When the roasted chicken freeze-dried treats arrived, Pierre couldn’t wait to get started trying them out.
One of the things we didn’t realize even through the window on the front of the bag is that these treats are really big. They’re “pet treats” and meant for either cats or dogs, so they’re on the large side.
This isn’t a problem. Just get your human to break them up for you. They were kind of stiff and didn’t come apart easily, probably due to Grandma Lucy’s roasting and freeze-drying process. But if you bend them along the grain of the meat instead of across the grain, they snap apart without too much effort.
Newton: Enough looking at the food. It’s time for eating!
Ashton: Me first! I want one of the big pieces!
Newton: You always go first because if you don’t, you steal everybody else’s, Ashton.
The harder texture meant that Pierre especially didn’t want to eat really big pieces. He preferred they be chunked up into small bits. Otherwise, he would gnaw on the large piece and give up. The rest of us ate any size piece you would give us, because it’s chicken and nothing but chicken. We like when there aren’t any ingredients we can’t pronounce on the label.
The treats are made in the USA, and not just “made in the USA” with ingredients from China, either. The ingredients (all one of them) are originated right here in the US from hormone and antibiotic free meats, so we felt confident about eating these treats.
Newton: Sorry, everyone. You’re going to have to go to Chewy and get your own. I like these so much that this bag is all mine!
We give these roasted chicken freeze-dried treats a big paws up.

We would love those…we are fowl eaters around here…MOL!
Yum! Those sound tasty.
Newton you did a great review there.
Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
Lucy says they look delicious but she isn’t happy of the name… She said she is too young to be a grandma. I told her she wasn’t the only Lucy in the world. She didn’t believe me
We know we would love these! Thanks for the review!
Great review, I must get these for my kitties.
Truffles wishes that I had chosen those for her from this month’s offerings. I’m going to have to let her start deciding what to pick. Great review!
We do like that chicken stuff and that brand sounds yummy!
I love chicken! I’m jealous.
Yummy I love chicken…well when mom remembers to give me some directly after it is boiled and before she adds yucky human stuff to it.

Mom says that is our snack! We love freezed dried chicken. Ping will beg for it!!!
Those treats look very healthy and tasty. Mum says I am strange because I won’t chew on big treats and have to have them broken up small, yet I will chew on a mousie when I catch it.
oh, we are drooling all over the computer! we’ve had other treats by Grandma Lucy and really like them. One nice thing for our mom is we can all eat these, us kitties and Wriggley too. We’ll have to try the chicken. Thanks for the review!
