[Wild One](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/walk-kit) is a design-centric line of pet products, including single-ingredient dog treats that are nutrient-dense and transparently sourced. While many meals and treats for pets are packed with fillers, by-products and artificial ingredients and colors, Wild One sets itself apart by creating the simplest kinds of meat and plant-based treats for dogs.

The brand’s one-ingredient dog treats include Sweet Potato, gently dehydrated Fish Puffs made with [sustainable Asian carp](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/freezedried-just-salmon-for-pets) and Chicken Tenders made with cage-free, non-GMO chicken sourced from Georgia’s Springer Mountain Farms—the world’s first poultry farm to be certified by the [American Humane Association](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ben-jerrys-razz-up).

On its site, Wild One answers a variety of questions on its natural treats for dogs, sharing information about why it chooses to work with specific suppliers, as well as how and where the treats are prepared.
