CLIF BAR® has always made products with high-quality, nutritious ingredients. When we decided to launch CLIF PET™, there was no question that we’d craft our dog treats with the same level of care and commitment. That is why we developed this product with a certified pet nutritionist to ensure this is 100% appropriate for your pup. Every single ingredient in our treats has a smart reason for being there.
