ProTrain Chicken Hearts — Pure Natural Chews & Training Treats

ProTrain Chicken Hearts are 100% pure chicken heart treats — muscle meat, not offal. Naturally rich in taurine, B vitamins, iron, folic acid, and essential fatty acids. 62.4% crude protein, 18.5% fat. Chewy texture ideal for training rewards. Available in 200g and 2kg bulk.

Chicken hearts are one of the most nutritionally complete natural treats available — and one of the most misunderstood. They are classified as muscle meat, not offal, which means they have a cleaner nutritional profile and are more readily accepted by dogs who are sensitive to organ meat. The taurine content is a genuine differentiator: taurine is an essential amino acid that supports cardiac function, and it's found in particularly high concentrations in heart muscle. For working gundogs with high cardiovascular demands, this is a meaningful nutritional benefit. The chewy texture and small size make them ideal training treats — easy to carry, easy to deliver, and highly palatable. The 2kg bulk bag makes daily use genuinely cost-effective for kennels and multi-dog households.

Are chicken hearts offal?

No — chicken hearts are classified as muscle meat, not offal. This means they have a cleaner nutritional profile than liver or kidney, and are more readily accepted by dogs who are sensitive to organ meat. They are one of the most nutritionally complete muscle meats available.

What is taurine and why does it matter?

Taurine is an essential amino acid found in high concentrations in heart muscle. It plays a key role in cardiac function, eye health, and immune support. Heart muscle is one of the richest natural dietary sources of taurine available for dogs.

Are they suitable as training treats?

Yes — the small, chewy size makes them ideal for training. They're easy to carry in a treat pouch, easy to deliver quickly, and highly palatable. Use as a high-value reward for new behaviours or challenging training tasks.

Which size should I buy?

The 200g is ideal for trialling or occasional use. The 2kg bulk bag is the practical choice for kennels, multi-dog households, or handlers who use them regularly as a daily training treat.

ProTrain Academy Tip: Chicken hearts sit in the mid-to-high value range on the reward hierarchy — more motivating than kibble, less intense than liver. This makes them ideal for the middle phase of training a new behaviour: once the dog understands what's required but needs consistent motivation to perform reliably. Use liver for the breakthrough moment, hearts for consolidation, and kibble for maintenance. A structured reward hierarchy produces faster, more reliable results.

Rich, savoury chicken flavour with a deeper, more complex note from the heart muscle content. The chewy texture releases flavour gradually, making these more satisfying than a quick crunchy treat. Highly palatable — the fat content (18.5%) gives them a richness that dogs find particularly rewarding. Universally accepted, even by fussy eaters.

Muscle meat. Natural taurine. The treat that works as hard as your dog's heart.
