pet treat

Dog biscuit, perhaps

A pet treat is a snack or reward given to a domesticated animal, typically a dog or cat, outside regular meals.

Pet treats are used for training, reinforcing good behavior, or simply indulging a beloved animal: She kept pet treats in her pocket for the walk.

The term distinguishes these products from standard pet food.
