ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A dry soft canine biscuit having visually apparent, discrete meat and/or meat by-product particles distributed substantially uniformly throughout the biscuit is obtained by blending the non-fat solids portion of a soft biscuit dough with particles which are substantially inert with respect to the biscuit dough, mixing the dry-blended mixture with water plus optional humectant to form an intermediate stage dough, admixing the latter with the fat portion of the biscuit dough to form a final dough, forming the final dough into pieces, and baking and drying the formed pieces to obtain a microbiologically stable product which can be packaged without a barrier material. Meat and/or meat by- product particle inertness is made possible by using particles having: 1) a moisture content of 35% by weight or less and, 2) a water activity which is less than the water activity of said soft biscuit dough. The substantial absence of meat particle color bleed into the biscuit is principally due to the use of meat products wherein the color is formed as part of the protein matrix. The discrete, visually apparent dehydrated meat parti- cles enhance the palatability and visual attractiveness of the dry biscuit.
