What is your favorite breakfast food? I love waffles! What tastes better when a dog first gets up in the morning than some nice, freshly made waffles? Nothing really! The only problem is, the butter and syrup make such a mess out of my paw furs and my beard.
Just my luck, I was awarded Klout Perks which came in the mail about a month ago. I received a box with four bags of Hill’s Ideal Balance Breakfast Medleys and Soft-Baked Naturals. Boy did they sound tasty! I also got a toy, which I gave to Bailie. Bailie loved it until it died right at Christmas time. With all the chewing she did, it finally got a hole in it.
Hills Ideal Balance was kind enough to send along a menu telling all about these yummy snacks they had sent me to try out. I was reading all about them and got so hungry, I started to chew on the menu! I do think I should mention some of the important points about these Breakfast Medleys and Soft-Baked Naturals:
- They are all natural
- Grain free
- No wheat, corn, or soy
- No artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives
- Made in the U.S.A.
Sometimes I enjoy breakfast in bed, but I am not allowed to have a waffle in bed as they are too messy. The Breakfast Medleys with Country Chicken & Egg and Grilled Trout & Spinach were perfect for dining in bed and not making a mess.
How did I like these treats? I think you can see, I love them. I didn’t even want to share them with my sisters! I would trade a regular waffle in for these any time! These are fairly healthy, flavorful treats. The only downside would be the calories, about 35/piece for the Breakfast Medleys and aroundΒ 12/piece for the Soft-Baked Naturals. If you have a small dog, the Breakfast Medleys might also be a bit large and are not easily broken up. We like the Soft-Baked Naturals for training rewards and they can be broken in half or thirds.
In my professional GBGV opinion, I would suggest to my friends that you get your own paws on some bags of these treats. You will love them!

I am joining the Tasty Tuesday blog hop sponsored by Kolβs Notes and Sugar the Golden Retriever. If you are looking for tasty ideas, take a look at what other dogs are baking and eating!
Oh yes pulling them out of a bag would be much easier. I love the review and the pictures. It would of taken me 10 real waffles to get the dog to sit there and get a pic without eating it. Nice job!
Thanks! I’m a photo model and take my work seriously, so if Mom says to leave it, I leave it. Most dogs don’t do that as well, but I love the photo part so much I don’t mind.
These look yummy and breakfast is not only our favorite, but the most important meal of the day. Love the photo of Emma in her PJs with her ears in a ponytail…:)
Breakfast is the most important meal and we don’t understand those that skip it! I had to put my ears up…can you imagine them hanging in the butter and syrup?
Yummm, those do look good.
My sisters and I are pretty wild about them!
Yummy! I especially loved your picture with your jammies and pony tail! You rock, Emma! XOXO Sparkle the PBGV
Nothing better than a lazy morning with a late waffle breakfast still wearing your jammies π
Toast extra butter please. You are hilarious
Lily & Edward
Toast??? No waffles???
WOW those Breakfast Medleys look yummy enough for humans to eat too! You look so cute in your jammies π
I don’t think they are for humans really. Mom did not want to try them, so I don’t know for sure.
Emma that’s a breakfast like in a 5-star howl-tel! I would like that too…. this tasty treats and a breakfast in bed while watching tv, yes, that’s the best!
The waffle treats are much easier than those other kind of waffles. Making a mess is something I can easily do even without waffles.
Those sure do look wafflelicious!!!
Cat bro Bert tried to steal one!
Based on that first photo, I think you may have snuck off with that waffle… looks tempting.
I do love waffles and sometimes I get a square, but these new treats are just as good, maybe better. I would trade any day!
Great reviews and fantastic photos! =D
Thank you…you should taste these waffles! They make us all crazy!
Only two words: Nom nom.
You’ve summed it up perfectly!
Waffles are so exciting in our house that we can’t even say the word or Boomer and Dottie go crazy… we’ll have to look into these!
I really would trade a human waffle for one of these, they are delish!
OMD you have WAFFLE Snacks????????????? like from that famous Awful Waffle chain along the interstates and stuffs???
PeeS… We want to wish you and your peeps a VERY MUCH HAPPY NEW YEAR
wITH 87 BAZILLION waffles.
Ahhhh…we stopped at that Waffle House place on the way to Florida…weird spot! These waffles are much better and not messy at all! I hope you guys get 87 bazillion waffles in 2015 too! We can call it 2015 – year of the waffle!
I’m just impressed that you can sit at the table with food in front of you. That stick of butter would be far too tempting for my dogs!
Don’t get confused! I’m a counter surfer at heart, but when it comes to the camera I’m a model and I so love hearing the camera click I will do almost anything I am asked. It was tempting, but I couldn’t ruin the photos.
Well, who knew there were special breakfast treats for dogs? Now mine are definitely demanding some, since these sound great!
Well, some eat waffles for breakfast, some as a dessert, so depending on what your dogs prefer, you can serve them at the appropriate time. I could care less when Mom serves them because they always taste yummy in my tummy!
We love treats made in the USA!
It is pretty important these days for so many reasons! I guess if these were made in Belgium I would eat them too since they are the home of Belgian waffles, but made in the USA tastes just fine.
Those look awesome!
They truly are…too bad they aren’t the size of a human waffle!
I love waffles too!!!!! Those look like yummy waffles for the pups too!
α¦ husky hugz α¦ frum our pack at Love is being owned by a husky!
They are super yummy and good flavors too.
Oh Emma you out did yourself again, my mouth is watering! So, how can I get in this Klout thingy? Love Dolly
I’ve been a member for a couple years but never got any decent perks until now. Just go to klout.com and sign in, enter your social media links and get started. When I first started this whole thing I was really active there, but now I rarely do much with it besides checking my score.
We love to lick the syrup of daddy’s plate after he has waffles but those treats look great!
Millie & Walter
You can leave you dad’s plate alone if you get some of these.
They look yummy!
Sorry i haven’t been around for ages, but hope you had a lovely christmas xx
It is a busy time of year for everyone, so many friends have gone on vacation or taken a break. Nice to hear from you, though.
those sound like something like we would like
Mom says they are cute. I say they are tasty!
Wow! We recieved this same Klout Perk and you are right…they are delicious! I cannot begin to tell you how adorable that you are in your pj’s with your ears pulled back. I am so in love. β₯ XXOO, Bentley *P.S. I would love to drive where you are with no fireworks!
Wow, how cool we got the same perk! I know you reviewed a perk right before I got mine, but it took so long until I had time to write this post. They are real yummy. Sometimes Mom puts my ears up so they air out and it kind of feels good too. Let me know if you get to use your parent’s wheels to come visit so I can make sure and bake up something tasty.
BOL! That first photo is hilarious! Looks like a great and healthy way to enjoy waffles! *wags* – Gilligan from WagsAhoy.com
And much less messy!
Waffles! WAFFLES!!!! let me at ’em!!!! Oh I love waffles! Oh Emma, you are such a good dog to tell me about these new breakfast foods! Mom is going to HAVE To go get some. She has a store coupon for PEtco – maybe they will have them?
Your biggest fan, Chablis
I have seen them around, I bet PetCo will have them. Mom saw them at Chuck and Don’s the other day if you have that in the area and PetCo doesn’t have them. Enjoy, they are real yummy. My fav is chicken and egg, but they are all good.
These sound worth a try!! Thanks for the great review!!
Smileys!
Dory, Jakey, Arty & Bilbo
They are quite tasty I have to say!
Woofs from Jeffie, Rudy and Rosie who really prefer pancakes π One of my favorite blog posts and photos of you ever, Emma!
Wow! That is saying something, thank you! We don’t care, pancakes or waffles taste about the same…Mom puts bacon fat in them…but these little ones just for dogs are super tasty as well.
Those look super yummy. The high calorie count would be a down side for us, but I guess once in a while it is OK to splurge. Well Freighter might be able to indulge. He needs a bit more weight on him. Those youngsters just burn calories off. π
We get several treats a day and are always quite active so one or two with a few more calories isn’t an issue, but it is something to pay attention too.
Yum Emma – add a side of fried chicken to that order and we’re cooking with crisco! #chickenandwaffles
LOL! Now that sounds good and healthy, for sure tasty!!!
