93 total reviews

Reward your dog with a delicious dehydrated sweet potato chew that's healthier for pup and planet. Our Sweet Potato Jerky is made exclusively from organic, air-dried sweet potatoes grown in North Carolina. 

Dogs love the savory taste and yummy dietary fiber, and humans appreciate the mildly sweet aroma and mess-free snacking compared with its stinky (and often slimy) chicken jerky and pig ear counterparts. Bring one of our compostable bags of jerky on your next outdoor adventure (or to distract your canine coworker during your next Zoom call). 

Pack Size — 12 oz

Why sweet potato

Ingredients

Feeding guide

Care for the planet as well as you care for your pup

Organically grown

Eliminates chemical fertilizers and pesticides for improved biodiversity, soil quality, and farmworker welfare while delivering higher quality nutrition to your pup

No factory farms

Using organic sweet potatoes instead of factory-farmed chicken meat reduces greenhouse gas emissions by 90%, freshwater use by 99%, and land use impact by 90%

Compostable bag

Made from certified home & industrial compostable materials. Just throw it in with your food scraps or curbside compost and the bag will degrade back into soil over 6-12 months

Designed for zoomies and for Zoom meetings

Healthy snacking

Easy-to-carry jerky packed with energy and nutrients that won't leave a stinky mess in your backpack or furniture

Mental stimulation and distraction

These chews take most dogs 1-5 min to eat, which is enough time for dogs to forget that the doorbell just rang while you are on a conference call

High-value rewards

Show your pup some love without compromising nutrition or environmental health

How we compare

Every bag of sweet potato jerky saves about 185 gallons of fresh water, 8 pounds of greenhouse gas emissions, and 120 square feet of land compared with chicken jerky.

Great Veggie Snack

My dog likes these Sweet Potatoe snacks. I cut the big pieces in half so she can have more than 1 a day. I think they're also good for the tarter on her teeth.

First of all, Zucchini is an amazing pup name! We love that she's a sweet potato jerky fan! And the cutting-in-half trick is such a smart way to stretch the treats out — we might have to add that to the official pro tips list. Thanks so much for sharing!

Will be keeping these in stock! :)

I've been meaning to try these out. Even though I'm still unsure about switching to plant-based meals for my dogs, they've been getting only plant-based treats. I was wondering how these would work out, since I've tried other sweet potato treats that had sharp pieces/edges. These are a little bit softer, which makes them easier for my dogs to chew without breaking them into potentially dangerous pieces. The only downside is they don't last terribly long, but both my dogs love them!

Hi Krys - thank you for sharing your review with us! We are so glad that you and your pups have given our products a try and are loving them. We will make sure to always have our treats available for you and your pups!

Great Treat!

My little guy loved this treat, he danced around it and played with it before running off to chew away. Makes me feel good to see him eat something I know is health and good for him.

He's such a cutie! I love it when dogs know they have 'treasure' and run away to enjoy it privately :) Thank you so much for supporting Petaluma and taking the time to leave us a review - we really appreciate it.

Sweet Potato Jerky

My Rat Terrier Dottie who is very difficult to find food and treats for that she likes more than once actually loves to chew on these treats. They are very hard like a bone and is a good substitute for beef bones.

Hi John,

Thank you for leaving a review for our Sweet Potato Jerky! We're so happy to hear that Dottie loves them.

We hope Dottie continues to enjoy them as a healthy alternative to beef bones. Thanks again for your support!

Sweet potato chews are a big hit

My two Standard poodles wake by 6 am, before meal time at 7 am. They each get a chew and are happy and satisfied and will even nap again. The chews smell great and I love the packaging. We are on autoship so always have them on hand.

Well if nothing else, these two make an adorable 'alarm clock'! So delighted to be a part of your morning routine. Thank you so much for sharing, Wendy!

Love the healthy chew option

We received a bag of the sweet potato chews as part of a giveaway and I immediately knew I’d have to get more for my dog! We’ve got on the subscription program to make sure we don’t run out again. I love giving him a healthy option that satisfies his need to chew!

Hi Libby,

I'm so delighted to hear that your dog is a fan! Healthy treats for the win :)

Thank you for supporting Petaluma!

Fun non-animal jerky treat that provides stimulation for senior doggo

Abbie is an 11-year-old Mastiff mix and she's been enjoying the sweet potato jerky for the past year. It's a fun treat to give that leaves me with zero guilt all around, from the compostable packaging to the actual plant-based treat itself! Plus, Abbie makes the best noises when she chews on this snack and it brings a lot of joy.

Abbie is a gorgeous senior pup! Thank you so much for sharing this awesome video and generous review. We are so grateful for your support, Tiff!

New favorite snack!

Was super excited when I saw these dried sweet potatoes. I knew I wanted to get them asap for my pups & I’m glad I did! Allyna (Husky) & Captain (German Shepherd) loved their new treats! Will be ordering more when they run low (and from what I could tell, that’ll be soon 😅)

Hi Victor! Thank you so much for leaving such an awesome review and sharing pictures of Allyna and Captain! So excited to hear that the jerky was a hit.

My 13.5 yo Australian Shepherd loves sweet potato treats !! These did not disappoint . Do look bigger however in the ads …

Hi Debbie! Thank you so much for leaving a review and excited to hear that your Aussie is a fan! Each bag has a mix of sizes and shapes (some of the big slices get cut into smaller pieces to fit in the bag) so hopefully you'll get some larger slices in future bags :) Appreciate your feedback and please feel free to reach out any time.

Great Concept However....

The pieces in the bag are not at all big like the ad shows...the pieces are VERY SMALL and sharp edges which is very dangerous for dogs to choke on. Would buy again if each piece were large.

Hi Claudia,

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We use organic sweet potatoes, which come in various shapes and sizes, so each bag comes with a mix of pieces. I'm sorry to hear if the photography felt misleading.

Many of our customers even prefer the smaller pieces (and will cut down the big pieces) for small dogs or to have more uses out of a single bag. The smaller sizes are safe to use as the jerky is digestible (and softer than most other chews on the market).

Yum!

I love it when my mama stuffs Petaluma sweet potato jerky on my Kong for me to gnaw on. Please ask her to stop trying to sneak one out of the bag for herself.

Cutest video review ever! Thank you Roy :)
