Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! I'm assuming you are speaking of Milkbones the treats? As with any treat, as long as it isn't causing Chloe to have any vomiting, diarrhea or inappetence, small amounts of treats in moderation are fine for most dogs. If she is dealing with a weight issue, there are low calorie treats that are available as well.
