The high-value training treat that works as hard as you do.
Training falls apart fast when the reward isn’t worth it, or when you’re breaking up big treats mid-session and worrying about how much your dog has eaten.
Bark Yeah sardine training treats solve both. They’re small, consistent and irresistible.
Each treat is made from 75% wild-caught Australian sardines and 25% air-dried faba beans, with no artificial additives, colours or preservatives. At about 150 treats per 100g and only 3 kcal per treat, you can reward fast, often and generously through long sessions. And because they’re mostly sardine, they naturally contain omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA) plus 48.1% protein.
From puppy basics to recall and agility, they’re the reward dogs will work for.

What are sardine training treats?
They’re small, consistent training rewards made from 75% wild-caught Australian sardines and 25% air-dried faba beans, with about 150 treats per 100g. They contain no artificial additives, colours or preservatives.
Are sardine treats good for dog training?
Yes. Sardine is one of the most motivating flavours for dogs, and the small, consistent size means you can reward quickly without breaking the rhythm of a session. Our reviewers use them for puppy training, recall and agility.
How many calories are in each training treat?
About 3 kcal per treat, with roughly 150 treats per 100g. That makes it easy to reward often during long sessions.
What are faba beans, and why are they in the treats?
Faba beans are a legume that’s widely used in pet food. They bind the sardine into small, consistent training-sized pieces, and add plant protein and fibre.
Are sardine training treats grain-free?
Yes. Faba beans are a legume, not a grain, so there’s no wheat, corn or other grains.
Can puppies have sardine training treats?
Yes. Their tiny size suits puppy training and small mouths. Sardines also naturally contain DHA, an omega-3 that plays a role in normal brain and eye development. It’s best to introduce them gradually.
Do sardine training treats contain omega-3?
Yes. Sardines naturally contain omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA), which help support healthy skin and coat. For a bigger daily omega-3 treat, there’s Natural Whole Sardine Dog Treats.
Are sardine training treats good for dogs sensitive to chicken or beef?
Fish is a different protein to chicken and beef, so many owners choose them for dogs who don’t do well on common proteins. Dogs with a fish allergy should avoid them. If your dog has a diagnosed allergy, it’s worth checking with your vet first.
Are sardines high in mercury?
Sardines are small fish low on the food chain, so they’re generally much lower in mercury than larger fish like tuna.
Do sardine training treats smell?
Yes, they have a natural fishy aroma, and that’s exactly what keeps dogs focused. A sealed bag or treat pouch helps keep the smell in.
Can I use them for more than training?
Yes. Our reviewers also pop them in Kongs, hide them for sniffing games or sprinkle a few over dinner.
Can sardine training treats cause loose stools?
Any new treat can cause loose stools if introduced too quickly. Starting with a small handful and building up over a few days usually avoids this.
How many sardine training treats can I give my dog a day?
As a guide, dogs under 15kg can have up to 20 treats per day and dogs over 15kg up to 40 treats per day, at about 3 kcal each. See the Feeding Guide above for details.
How should I store sardine training treats?
A cool, dry place out of direct sunlight is ideal, with the bag resealed after use. Check the best before date on the pack.
Where are Bark Yeah sardine training treats from, and how fast is delivery?

We ordered the Bark Yeah! Salmon Bites and both of my dogs are obsessed! I’ve got a 1.5-year-old cocker spaniel and a 5-year-old Sproodle, and they both adore these treats. They come well packaged, delivery was fast and hassle-free, and they’re the perfect size for training sessions or taking on walks.
Price wise, they’re really fair compared to other snacks you’d find at Petbarn…and honestly, the nutritional value feels just as good, if not better. Overall, I couldn’t be happier with these treats and will definitely be stocking up again.
My Labrador loves the smell and taste of your sardine training treats. Helps her feel loved
Always keep these in my pouch for those training sessions! Sometimes they even get a few sprinkled on their dinner😋
Perfect size and really yummy!
The sardine treats have been great for puppy training, my puppy loves them which has been great for getting him to follow commands. I chose this particular training treats because its made out of Sardines which has great nutritional value
Perfect size and weight for treating dog during agility training
These sardine treats are the absolute best. Nothing nasty in them, and the dogs go nuts for them. They’re definitely better than what you can get in store and in a really great quantity too, which is incredibly helpful for training. Great service from the company too! Highly recommend
Our pup Rusty will do just about anything once he sniffs we have these treats in our hand. They also make a fun addition to a Kong or for sniffing treasure hunts. Theyre a great small size for lots of trick training and stay together nicely in pockets.
Perfect training assistant
These are awesome for training and for quick snacks. My dog can’t get enough of these!!!
Dogs loved them!
Perfect size for training :)
Have never seen him so excited for a treat (and he’s fussy). Great for training!
I'm a dog sitter and these salmon bites are definitely a high value treat for all of my doggos - no matter the breed! Each treat is a great size & it's fantastic knowing it's such a good, healthy, nutritious treato for the doggos :) I take them out on walks with me, recall guaranteed :)
Pat gobbled these up, a big favourite
Our dog is usually very fussy with treats, but she is absolutely obsessed with these Bark Yeah! Salmon Bites. The bites are the perfect size, great quality, and come in fantastic packaging, that stands up on our shelf so we can easily stack them. I also loved how easy the online ordering was, especially being able to choose different gram weights. Quick delivery, seamless experience, I’ll definitely be back for more. Highly recommend!
These are Yennefer’s absolute favourite. You can smell they are of superb quality and I’m sure she eats her dinner just because she knows she gets a few of these as a treat afterwards!
Our Oscar dog loved these!!! Worked amazingly for training as well
These were great! Arrived super quick and my pup Pickle loved them, loves treats with salmon in them and these seemed to hit the spot.
