Now you don't have to take your dog to the beach to give them a taste of the ocean thanks to Trader Joe's new Crab Paws.
Not to be confused with a human-favorite dish, crab claws, Trader Joe’s Crab Paws are soft-baked dog treats that are bursting with tasty crab flavor. The treats are made from a healthy blend of oat flour, crab meal, potato, flaxseed meal, molasses, and other ingredients. The result is some tremendously tasty treats that are sure to elicit a 'paw-sitive' reaction from your favorite four-legged friend. Or as Trader Joe's cleverly puts it, "No matter the occasion, they’re the oceanic equivalent to a shiny gold star on a sticker chart... and they’re sure to elicit two paws up."
