My Pom loves Wee Bits (I think that's what it's called) by Solid Gold. My Maltese loves it too. It is dry food, but dry food is the best, especially for the Poms who tend to have issues with their teeth. I used to only be able to get that at our local feed store but I've noticed they sell it at Petco now.
