What's the difference between pet treats and pet food?
Treats and snack marketed for pets are considered "food" but are not required to be complete and balanced like food. Treats require a guaranteed analysis, however, they are not intended to be nutritionally complete and therefore do not need to meet all nutritional requirements for the species for which they are intended.
